2006 - Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Red Lion, Pennsylvania, United States
One of 500 built, this one is number 20 (CSM: 06H0020). This car has been upgraded with heated seats and Ford navigation from the 2007 model year. With under 15,100 miles this car is just breaking in. The car also carries VIN # 1D48750COLO as it is the only one known to be stolen from Hertz. It was then recovered in Colorado and returned to Hertz again titled in Colorado (Colorado has a policy that makes them give the car a new Vin # once a vehicle has been recovered. The car now has a clear blue Pennsylvania Title with the newly issued VIN #, both VIN's are stamped on the vehicle). It is in the Shelby registry and Ford motor under the original VIN # 1ZVFT82H565226448. The GT-H Mustangs were Mustangs that were bought by HERTZ rental car and were sent to Carroll Shelby Motors to be modified. Shelby modified these cars specifically for Hertz with performance modifications, interior modifications including Hertz and Shelby tags, exterior modifications including special front end , hood, and gold stripes, etc . This was an $8,000 package added on to the price of the GT Premium. What really makes these cars stand out to collectors and all Mustang enthusiast is the tribute these cars where to the 1966 Hertz addition Mustangs. These cars became very popular to collectors and are going for record amounts at car auctions all over the world. These cars were only sold to Hertz and were rented at special high end Hertz rental centers. They were not sold to the public until the Hertz corporation began sending them to auctions years later. It was sold to Hertz on March 4th, 2006 and was modified by Carroll Shelby Motors on March 21, 2006. All Shelby and Hertz documentation is included with the car. All invoices, PO's, sales slips, etc are laminated and in great condition. I have a letter from Shelby authenticating the car as a true Shelby GT-H. The car also comes with the extra Dash Plaque with the CSM # 06H0020 that was released to the first public buyer of the car. The interior is spotless. The engine bay is spotless. Everything that Shelby put on this car is intact and how it should be. Shelby put a safety wire on the engine blocks to insure that no one removed the engines. That is still there! There are paint markings on bolts that still line up and show that this car was not tampered with. The car runs great and the automatic transmission shifts flawlessly. These cars have a great exhaust rumble thanks to the x-pipe that was added by Shelby and also have 25 more hp than the normal Mustang GT due to the Ford Racing cold air intake and tune that was installed by Shelby motors. There are a few paint issues on the hood. The car still has everything that Shelby and Hertz put on the car including Hertz tags, Carroll Shelby ID plaques under the hood and on dash, floor mats, engine safety wire, Ford Racing Performance parts, etc. Everything has been installed by Ford, Shelby, and Hertz

Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.

Mulally, who is 68 years old, has served at the head of Ford for eight years, and his official retirement date will be July 1st, 2014. Fields, who is 53 this year, has been with Ford for 25 years and has been groomed to take the helm from Mulally for the last several of those years.

1964 Ford GT40 prototype sells for $7M
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Seven-figure Ferraris are not horribly rare. Heck, an eight-figure Ferrari isn't a rare occurrence. Between modern masterpieces like the Enzo and more classic offerings, cracking the million-dollar mark isn't a particularly tall order for the cars from Maranello. For a Ford, though, it's a big deal.
Now, this is not just some rare Mustang. This is a GT40, the car that Henry Ford II commissioned to whip Enzo Ferrari around a track in France. As far as the Le Mans-winning racers go, they don't get much rarer than this one. Sold at the Mecum Auctions in Houston, this is one of the prototypes, meaning it's one of the very first GT40s ever built. That makes its $7 million winning a bid, a record for on-air coverage of the auction, a pretty darn impressive figure.
You can watch the auction below, but first, take a look back at our original story on this rare Blue Oval.
