Hot Wheels 2005 Ford Mustang

For SEMA 2014, Action Vehicle Engineering worked with Hot Wheels on this 2005 Ford Mustang project. The wheels were made special for Hot Wheels, and the entire vehicle was meant to be conceived as a Japanese-style race car. It also has a special wrap design, with decals giving special thanks to Sparco, Falken Tires, KW, Fifteen 52 and Clarke Designs (see Gallery section for images). Die-cast model features an adjustable front splitter for display or use on the orange slopes; this was the first licensed casting to have such a feature (although not the first casting to feature this, that honor goes to the X-Steam), ostensibly as an alternative method to reduce some of the kickback caused by the heavily sloping front splitter design on certain licensed models. However, the latter method is still in use, although the rake is not usually as noticeable. Hot Wheels® Specialty: Created for the 2014 SEMA show, this 2005 Ford Mustang pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang. With a solid 430-hp engine, Vortech supercharger, and custom roll cage, this pony not only looks street-ready, but drives like the true muscle car it is.
