New men’s fragrance Mustang Blue comes from Aramis and Designer Fragrances, the same company which brought us the first Mustang cologne. The new Mustang Blue men’s cologne is the definition of a confident, sexy and powerful Mustang man.

Mustang Blue fragrance for men will launch in June 2008 to retailers nationwide including Sears, JCPenney and Kohl’s and rollout to mass merchandisers and chain drug stores in July of 2008.  Prices for the cologne will start relatively inexpensive with a 1.0 oz. cologne spray retailing for $20 and go up to a 3.4 oz. spray retailing for $32.

“The Mustang fragrance had a tremendous reception from Mustang fans as well as others who appreciate the iconic American brand,” says Robin Mason, Vice President of Global Marketing. “The first Mustang fragrance appealed to his bold, daring and legendary side as he drove through the west. Mustang Blue further defines the Mustang man by exploring his adventuresome side via a drive along the California coastline. Mustang Blue will appeal to men who aspire to the freedom of the outdoors, the power of the engine and the confidence to show off their sexier side. Anything is possible in a Mustang,” adds Mason.

“We are pleased to partner again with Aramis and Designer Fragrances because they are global leaders in this arena. Together we launched the first Mustang fragrance which became a natural lifestyle extension of this iconic American brand. We tapped into a new demand for fragrance that appealed to the Mustang Man and the Mustang fan base, “ states John Nens, Director, Global Brand Licensing, Ford Motor Company. “We are very excited to launch Mustang Blue because it continues to celebrate the Mustang Man on a new journey,”

Mustang Blue, The New Men’s Fragrance

“Fresh, aquatic ingredients infused with sage, basil and sandalwood combine to make a clean, clear and compelling fragrance,” says Trudi Loren, Vice President, Corporate Fragrance Development Worldwide for The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. “Mustang Blue confidently accentuates who the Mustang man is; a man who knows how to enjoy the adventure of life.”

The fragrance is infused with mint and basil to boost the tantalizing top. At the heart is an aromatic exhale of geranium, sage and artemisia. A cool and crisp intensity radiates from a high-spirited essence of pine and cedarleaf, while the perfect freshness that features spicy, wet cardamom, clove leaf and cypress transports the senses through an intriguing voyage.

The sensual masculine back infuses rugged sandalwood with an intoxicating earthy blend of hay and patchouli to create a super sexy, masculine scent.

Another mind boggling Ebay find, a wrecked 2008 Mustang GT California Special coupe with window sticker intact and only 8.5 miles on the clock.  The car does have a salvage title and the description only mentions the Mustang was hit on the passenger side, no other details of the wreck.  Sounds to me like somebody took this baby out for a test drive and did not make it very far before somebody slammed him.  The buy it now price is set at $13,500, seems a little much for all the repairs that are needed but what do I know.  More photos and link to the auction after the jump.

The 2009 Ford Mustang is back in the battle…well, another battle aside from the looming pony car war.  This time, the “Warriors in Pink” package for the S197 Ford Mustang is going to do double damage.  The last time we saw the Pink Ford Mustang, Ford shelled out $250 to the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure—now, they’ve upped the ante to $500 for each “Warriors in Pink” Mustang sold.

In the aftermarket race for the Ford Mustang, competitors are constantly seeking methods of improving original equipment to do more to pacify the Mustang fans’ need for power & speed.  Steeda has just recently announced a very progressive solution to powertrain control for the S197 Ford Mustang.  This new Adaptive Performance Calibration system takes full advantage of the drive-by-wire system in the car and takes it to the next level of preferred performance.

To mark off a 20 year celebration of massaging the Ford Mustang, Steeda is happier than ever to be in the aftermarket enthusiast market.  Steeda is continuing to grow and expand with their new Valdosta, Georgia facility.  The 20 year celebration will be held at the convention center and the South Georgia Motorsport park.  Planet Mustang is going to get a sneak peek at the new facility at the debut, so when we get more intel, you'll hear the first straight from the source.

The latest results for the Roush sponsored Rehagen Racing team show some promising results, with the No. 59 and No. 60 finishing in the top 10 at Daytona Beach.  For some time, it seemed as though the Ford Mustangs would take spots 1 and 2, but some faulty communications during a late pit stop caused both cars some crucial time losses.  These losses would prove to be detrimental to the two Roush racers, but would still leave them finishing with decent points standing.

The persistent paparazzi lead so many trends, and the legend of the Ford Mustang is not one to be left alone.  Just this week, the 2010 Ford Mustang has been snapped under wraps by the folks at Priddy & Co.  From what we can tell, it appears to hold pretty strongly to the current S197 Ford Mustang platform, but just might have some influential applications from the Giugiaro Ford Mustang feature a bit ago in Los Angeles.  Want to see what it looks like?  Better stop in and take a peek!

How do you make a high performance special edition Mustang even more special?  Start with a Saleen Ford Mustang and celebrate Saleen’s 25 years of existence.  Saleen’s latest steed, dubbed the Sterling Edition, is based on the Saleen S302E Ford Mustang and will have the same supercharged V8 with an output of 620 horsepower and 600 lb-ft torque.

There is little doubt that an S197 Ford Mustang equipped with a V6 can lay down some pretty respectable statistics.  We showed you an S197 V6 Mustang that broke the 10 second mark, last year, and now, the aftermarket is fueling the fire with more touches to the sixer.  Steeda, one of the foremost to make changes to 4.0 liter, has now released the 2008 QS6 Ford Mustang.
