This is not a normal pony car. This is not even a normal Mustang for that matter. A normal mustang comes with about 400 hp, but this beast comes with an insane 700 hp which is just 100 hp shy of being more than double the average Mustang has to offer.
This is a car Tim Allen dreams about.
You would normally see a lot of fine-tuned Mustangs back in America, but the real novelty of this beast is that this is the first Mustang that has been fine-tuned in the UK, although most of the bits have been used from the US. A Mustang modified for the European audience is awesome news because this means that the American heritage is now finding foot in Europe.
The upgrade kit and costs involved
Here is a breakdown of the upgrade and the costs involved if you want to muscle up your factory tuned Ford Mustang:
- The carbon Aerokit - $12,411.40
- KW Package with 20 Din (comes with a significant drop in the suspension with 25mm in the front and 35 mm at the back) - $7,283
- Power Package coupled with a whipple charger - $17,949
- Extra-large throttle bodies to add to the supercharger, a new carbon fiber intake - $1,395
The extra-large throttle body will help you get an additional 30 hp of power. When you add up all the power gained using different mods, you get an insane 700 hp of raw power. You do not have to get the whole kit at the same time. The good thing about this mode is that you can pick the ones you like and can afford leaving the other modes for another day.
The kit comes with as many as three different levels of carbon body kit, there are two different suspensions to choose from and if you are still not satisfied, then you can go for the CS500 pack that will cost you $6,237 more only. The CS500 pack comes with better breathing intakes as well as exhaust, rear valance will be changed and switchable exhaust control. This alone will help you reach about 500 hp of power.
In addition to all the above mentioned modes, you will also get a remote controlled LED in the headlights. If you turn both the red and blue lights and set the time, you may get away with a police car look. The CS500 will also help you hit the spot between performance upgrade and cost.
This is a tough looking car and this car knows it. This car connotes bad as- without saying anything – without even having the engine on.
CS700 kit
The CS 700 kit on the other hand will transform your Mustang into something else. You will get massive rear tires of 305/30 ZR20s and a torque that will push through the barrier of 500 horsepower reaching the 700 mark.
Here are the specifications on the CS700 kit: the total cost of the kit will reach $96,084 which will get you a monstrous 700 bhp with an impressive torque of 674 lb/ft. You can expect a mileage of 18.3 mpg and there is no CO2. You can easily hit 0-62 mph in under 4.4 seconds. Even at this range, the car is surprisingly responsive at both lower and higher speeds when taking a turn around the corner.
This car is meant to go fast and look good while doing it.
The role of the Mustang is well defined and that is to own the road. One of the most iconic pony cars in the American history just got better. If you have the money then you must get it in your garage. You do not need to buy another type of car when you have this. This car can serve multiple roles for you.
