"Mach 4" 4-Door Mustang + Off-Road Baja Mustang models previewed at Ford dealers meeting!

[m2016v6]

So, after dropping all the sedans, Ford decides to stretch the Mustang? I'd be happy with the Fusion sport. No need to dilute the Mustang name.

Yeah, have to disagree Mags. Mustang would then mean nothing. It would have no identity. How about a Civic truck, or civic SUV. Destroys what a civic is.

And that’s fine, we all have our opinions. I think a Mustang brand that is somewhat separate from Ford (even though it would remain under the mothership) would be cool. Sales are a fraction of what they were, they need to do something to draw more people in, otherwise it goes away entirely. Something cool like the 4 door sedan with the coyote in it, maybe a wagon along the lines of the old Caddy V wagon or AMG wagon. Hell, keep the Mach-E styling and drop a coyote in that thing.

Just my opinion though.

I could get behind this.

I’d likely buy one if it was offered

Definitely not a N. American product.

I could see it in Asia, but it's so hard to compete with global players there already western brand have lost 50% of their business there.

Most of this type of marketing is to push sales through internet searches and like naming. If you’re googling new mustang or mustang prices then you’ll get traffic for the new mustang 4door also because googling new ford is way to broad.

A good opinion. When I was younger I had a couple of Austin Minis. British Leyland apparently never made a dime on them over the 40 years of production. But what they did do was allow BL to negotiate better deals on common parts (think lug nuts) so they could make more money on their other vehicle lines. If creating a family of Mustang vehicles keeps the “real” one in production, then I say that’s a win.

I’d be down for a renewed Falcon wagon based on the S650 chassis. Would give us our 4 doors and keep them separate.

It’s almost like they’re trying to make a brand out of Mustang like Chrysler did with Ram. Weird and unnecessary I think.

I have a feeling they’re moving towards making Mustang its own “brand” as I mentioned earlier with the likes of Ram, Genesis, etc. I, as a consumer, would be on board with that. As long as the traditional Mustang fastback/coupe and vert live on, I’m good with more Mustang brand options.

IMO, if that actually happens, that’s not brand diminishment, that’s brand enhancement. The Mustang name lives on, opens it up to a much larger consumer pool and we enthusiasts/traditionalists still have an option to keep us happy. Sounds like a good proposition to me.

That makes one of us, I guess.

This sort of shit won't make me buy another Mustang, but it might make me buy something else.

Fair enough

I want that off-road lifted mustang so bad I can’t see straight. God I love em

What the actual fu*k??

 

[DarthMalice]

Just kill the name already. Better than slapping it on every thing with wheels. Need an e-bike? Here is your mustang. Need a @#$%ing soccer mom vehicle to take kids to practice or get some shit from Lowes? Here is your Mustang CUV, sedan, or wagon...look at the selection! Makes me want to vomit. The off-road coupe at least just makes me dry heave only as that is performance oriented in a different direction. What amazes me are the number of sympathizers here talking about this is how it survives and broadens the appeal. Good lord did you drink the Kool Aid from the appliance guy and the current CEO who is drowning. Well, I have bought my last Mustang if (and appears to be when) this thing is revealed. I don't care what the new performance one is...it is too tainted with family car siblings at this point. It was bad enough hearing "Mach E" when ever someone wants to poke fun at Ford/Mustang...now we get Mach 4 and whatever else they are thinking about. I will jump to Corvette and if they do this shit, I guess I will just be done period and hope for all of these to fail miserably.

This never gets old to me, but a shame they ended production.

So we'll call it the "Mustang GTP Rally"
Put the 2.7TT v6 under the hood, 6MT sequential or dual-clutch.

why not the 3.0TT? Ford Fusion Sport had the 2.7TT but MKZ and Continental had a 3.0TT option AWD at 400HP
