Peering over the production numbers, it's almost surprising that Ford has committed to a right-hand drive Mustang. Since 1964 more than 9.2 million Mustangs have been sold in North America. Outside North America 161,000 Mustangs have sold, or 1.75 per cent of the US total. Still, having the car officially in right-hand drive should see that number comfortably rise.
After all, the latest Mustang has the potential to do well in the UK as well as other RHD markets like South Africa and Australia. Alright, the line lock function probably won't be of much use unless you live at Santa Pod but a rear-wheel drive coupe with a Focus ST engine (or V8) sounds rather good to us. Rumours are it's quite European to drive too. Let's wait and see...
Ford has confirmed the sixth-gen Mustang (catch up on the history here) will go on sale Stateside later this year and then over here in 2015. The car here is the very first prototype right-hand drive Mustang. Obviously it had to be a convertible just to prove nobody was lying. More on the Mustang as it's available.
