Definitely one of the best 4th gen Stangs I've seen. Great find there.

Surprised nobody even suggested it yet.

"10,000 cc"
Dear god.

If this thing is 429Ci then it is only 7,000CC not 10,000. 429 cubic inches = 7030.05046 cubic centimeters. Also, unless this thing is very well tuned I highly doubt it does 0-60 in 1.9 seconds. For comparison, a Hennessey Venom GT does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds. And it has over 1,000HP and does over 250MPH. And this would need to weigh under 1,050KG to match the Venom's Power/Weight ratio.

...It seems unbelievable. But there are few sites claiming this. And here too.

Precisely. It is actually a 610ci.

With the lawyers Ford have? No thank you.

So Ford lied.

I wouldn't really class it as lying, because many manufacturers underplay their cars abilities (like Tesla saying that the P85D does 0-60 in 3.2 when it's actually faster, and Porsche regularly underclasses the capabilities of the 911). In the case of this Mustang, the 429 moniker is more to pay homage to the classic 429 rather than to be taken literally. If it was overstating the cars ability, I would agree completely, but downplaying isn't that big of a deal really. Plus "429" rolls off the tongue better than "610".
