Mustang Mania - Americas Favourite Muscle Car
Staff, Wednesday February 7, 2001.
Page 1 of 1
The Mustang was launched in April 1964.
22,000 orders were taken on the car’s first day.
In Chicago, a showroom closed early and called the police when Mustang prospects stormed the dealership.
In Garland, Texas, 15 customers bid on the same Mustang, and the winner insisted on sleeping in the car overnight to guarantee that it wouldn’t get sold from under him before his cheque cleared the following day.
A restaurateur invited his customers to sample his “hotcakes that were selling like Mustangs.”
Mustang-crazed parents in the United States bought 93,000 pedal-powered children’s Mustangs during the 1964 Christmas season.
The original pony car outpaced its entire first-year sales estimate of 100,000 in its first four months on sale.
More than 417,000 Mustangs were sold during the first 12 months – a record-breaking feat for a new car.
More than 6.9 million Mustangs have been sold in the last 35 years.
The one millionth Mustang was sold by March 1966, less than two years after its launch.
In less than three years, 472 Mustang clubs with 32,000 members sprang up across the United States.<
