During its 54-year production history, Mustang was also built in San Jose, California, Metuchen, New Jersey and the original Mustang production facility in Dearborn, Michigan.
The iconic Mustang Bullitt returns for the 2019 model year with a 480 horsepower 5-liter V8 engine. The classic California Special also makes a return with unique design and trim enhancements. The Ford Mustang is now in its sixth generation.
