Description[]
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 whole vehicle was meant to be envisioned 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 the Gallery section for pictures). The diecast model features an adjustable front splitter for either display-ability or use on the orange tracks; this was the first licensed casting to have such a feature (although not the first casting to feature this, that honor going to the X-Steam), ostensibly as an alternative method to reduce some of the backlash caused by the sharply raked front splitter design on certain licensed models. The latter method remains in use however although the rake is not often as noticeable.

Designer: Hot Wheels®
Specialty: Created for the 2014 SEMA show, this 2005 Ford Mustang pays homage to the Mustang's 50th Anniversary. With a solid 430 hp engine, vortech supercharger and custom, full roll-cage, not only does this pony look street-ready, it drives like the true muscle car it is.
