It was traditional in the past that the factory did not share information with the enthusiast media. Information was received by rumor only or after reading other media reports. This long-held tradition is apparently continuing. The owners of the old cars as we have been referred to are definitely out of the information loop.
But hey guys you need to remember that the vintage Mustang clubs are the ones that saved the brand, otherwise the Probe would have been the 1994 Mustang.

I think DeTomaso should have partnered with Ford to re-body the Ford GT with a next generation Pantera body rendered in aluminum, which the new owners specialize in fabricating. Having a 400K modern Pantera will make our $30K Panteras look like a bargain, which in reality, they truly are.
Ford has all but canned any projects in that category of vehicles, there were a few others in the tube, but the market crash has all but destroyed that. Chrysler is the only N.Am manufacturer to have a supercar in the plans (2013 Viper) but no news on that project for a while now.
