There’s one sure way to bring even jaded automotive writers to their feet, and Ford did it at the 2010 Mustang press introduction at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show. In front of a backdrop of famous Mustangs set on scaffolding like so many Matchbox cars in a shadow box, world drifting champion Vaughn Gittin Jr. bellowed a 2010 Ford Mustang GT sideways in full opposite lock in huge circles, leaving rings of tire marks on smooth concrete. That’s a sure way to get attention introducing the 2010 Mustang as well.
