Ever dream of getting one of the hottest design applications to ever be applied to a Mustang? Well, your dream just became a reality. With the resulting agreement between Unique Performance and Tecstar Automotive Group (forming Unique Performance Concepts), the Foose-designed 2006 Mustang (known as the Stallion) will soon be available to the public at selected dealerships this summer.

From the advent of the 1st Stallion coupe being sold Barrett-Jackson auction house to the future giveaway at the NBA All-Star game in Houston (February 19, 2006), the car has been a phenomenal hit. Set with a MSRP of $42K, the legend of tomorrow doesn't stay close to its humble beginnings for long-most have sold for over $150K.

So what is so special about the Foose Stallion? It's all in details, details, details. Let's jump right in, shall we?

The Stallion will be available as both a coupe AND a convertible to keep all dreamers happy, no matter the climate. The entire exterior carries a customized design courtesy of custom graphics, a modified hood, side molding, styled grille, fascias, custom side marker lights, C-scoops, and a few other finer touches for the discerning eye to catch. The rear spoiler is more than form; it is pure function, as is the rest of the ride.

Footing, courtesy of BFGoodrich KDW's mounted on custom Foose 20" inch rims, are backed by racing coil springs, Baer brake calipers, and Eradispeed cross-drilled rotor. Performance modifications include an ECM update to bring an estimated 325 ponies to the driver's reins, a high-flow air filter, and a JBA Catback system. Phew! Had enough?

Inside, the Stallion carries all the usual Mustang accoutrements, with an update to the seating and trim, Foose-style.

The Stallion closes the gap between the mystique of the past with the technology. It's hard for a Mustang fan to look at its classic lines and modern appliqué and decide it's not worthy of the pony badge. Now, if only more could be produced...
