The new American muscle car war is on. With the launch of the Dodge Challenger and the impending release of the Chevrolet Camaro, the competition in that very special market is greatly heightened. That also means that the Ford Mustang is facing a lot of stiff competition after so many years of dominating the market especially with the Shelby- and Roush-tuned variations.

And because of this, the Mustang will be get overhauled for its 2010 incarnation. While we have to wait until next year to see the new Mustang in the Los Angeles Motor Show, we can all enjoy staring at the new muscle-y silhouette of the Mustang badge.

A side-by-side comparison shows the new emphasis given to the ‘Stang’s muscular form. The badge will also be available in black chrome for the GT variant.
