Ford continues to rely on the Mustang, released in 1964, as its beating heart. After its debut at the 1964 New York Auto Show, when Lee Iacocca debuted the Ford Mustang to the world, it became immediately popular with the era’s automotive enthusiasts for its distinctive looks and distinctive performance. The Ford Mustang has appeared in over 33,000 films in over 50 years of production.

Your life may now be a movie with these movie-like automobiles. Ford opted to do physical crash tests on Mustangs to assure their safety before being released to the public. The Ford Mustang is widely regarded as one of the safest vehicles on the road today. A five-star crash test grade from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is also bestowed on this particular automobile type (NHTSA).
