Ford Recalls 2010 Mustang For Being Too Cool

February 16, 2010 | Issue 46•07



DETROIT—-Ford officials issued a massive recall of the entire 2010 Mustang line Tuesday, apologizing for a quality-control oversight that led to the company manufacturing a badass muscle car that was way too awesome for the American public. "We deeply regret this lapse in judgment and accept full responsibility for the mistake," Ford CEO Alan R. Mulally said standing beside a gorgeous, cherry-red vehicle recalled for being "way too smoking." "After numerous road tests, we've found the car to be a mean, mean ride that Americans are simply not cool enough to handle, and it would be irresponsible of us to allow anyone to get behind the wheel of this killer car. It's truly frightening how sweet the Mustang is." According to Mulally, Ford has canceled production on the 2011 Mustang, and will instead release a line of fuel-efficient vehicles in an effort to appeal to boring old Americans.



From The Onion :D:D:D:D:D

I'm not a Mustang fan but that is a neat story, although fake.

They do sound good, I must say. we saw/heard several out and about with the nice weather we are having this weekend.

I would love to have a new mustang... however I hate what they did with the taillights... butt ugly if you ask me (pun intended) :p

I've been good with the exteriors, but the interiors just don't grab me. Good bang for the buck though.

Well, things are finally looking up for Toyota, because this is one recall that won't affect a single model in the entire range. :)

Precisely why I bought an '09...the '10's were just coming out, and I'd seen them.
Now rethinking a bit...the '11's with the 5.0 coyote V-8's are going to be hot mommas...I mean, BMW M3 performance envelope territory.

Pics of the '09 Bullitt model...my favorite. ;)

That '09 Bullitt Mustang looks good...way better than the '10 Mustang.

I goofed...file pics are of an '08. But the '08 and '09 Bullitts are identical exterior...

I liked the 04-09 when it came out and I didn't know they had an '10 version until I saw some at a promotional event. I couldn't get it off my mind and went to test drive one. It's a fun car, but I felt like I was driving a giant tank (I had just stepped out of the 911 as it was). I'd love one, I think they are really cool. I still like looking at the '10s, damn.

If you like the looks of the '10, you'll like the '11...same look. But the '11 will have the hot 5.0 Coyote V-8 available. Poor Ford is going to have trouble moving the '10's with the 4.6 V-8's...gearheads will wait for the 100 horsepower gain.

This translates to some good deals offered to buyers of the '10's???

Yeah, in the summer when the '11s come out.

I really wanted to open that thing up when I test drove it. Salesguy really though he was going to make a sale. :) A Mustang is one of the few (affordable) cars that I've wanted and never had yet. (Well I had a '73 but it was a project car and I had no money or skills.)

I just came back from the mall and one ford dealership has his cars in there right next to GAP, etc.. people are really talking on how hot those new Fords look. They had a GT500 Shelby, oh my... that's one nice car. Interior is not ultimate but the whole package looks awesome..

Fords Suc........ oh shoot, I can't say that anymore.
Damm.

I've got one right now as a rental here in Seattle. Even in base rental car form I can't find much to complain about. It's on the short list of potential replacements for the wife's car when it finally goes someday.

Hahaha, i love the onion. :D
