For several years now, Ford engineers have been crafting iterations of the Ford Mustang that carefully teeter the line between muscle machine and sports car. And while this strategy has certainly produced a great deal of pleasurable drive, the automaker has decided to kick it into high gear for 2013.

Building upon successive years of improvements, Ford took an aggressive approach for upgrading the 2013 Ford Mustang GT. As one AutoBlog writer puts it, "Buyers who put their cash down on a 2013 Mustang can look forward to a new suite of technology, visual improvements, more power and available options."¹

Set to surpass its larger rivals, the 2013 Mustang puts on a more intimidating face complete with a redesigned front fascia, bolder grille, LED accent strips and grille-mounted LED fog lights. In addition to these external accoutrements, the revamped Ford model wears dual heat extractors set to the side of the vehicle's curved hood.

Moving on inside, Mustang lovers will be pleasantly surprised to see that Ford has made the classy leather-wrapped, contrasting-stitch steering wheel standard across all models. As for technology, perhaps the greatest change can be found nestled between the speedometer and tachometer in the gauge cluster. Drivers can opt for a 4.2-inch LCD screen that displays vital information such as fuel economy, mileage and more. What's more, the info center is operated using convenient steering-wheel-mounted controls. Additional tech features include a nine-speaker Shaker Pro sound system and Microsoft SYNC.
