true but we all know if they start producing them over there then soon the engineering as well. will they come out with something from fast and the furious 3 rice setup in mustang shell.
I would be very disappointed in ford if they do this
I will not by a new mustang if the vins do not start with 1,4, or 5
stop taking the jobs away from Americans

The Chinese are the type to be patient and take their time with things. They don't just invade and impress with shock and awe. They are silent assassins, and look at the future, rather than worry about the present. Our country is on the opposite spectrum and is all about NOW, and does everything without thinking about the long run.

Watch out for the Chinese! Russia isn't working militarily with them for no reason.

I found it damn hilarious, and people need to get off their lame politically correct high horse! If it was a shot in the dark (as in slam) at a random race just to be a biggot would deserve to get a backlash of political correctness.........but to defend someone that clearly has no regard for others lives deserves no such defense!

Also, Ford vehicles that start with a "3" in their VIN are made In Mexico. The Ford Focus is made in Mexico.

i'm confused, everyones buying foreign cars now such as honda and toyota but if the mustang was made on foreign soil, you would touch one with a ten foot pole. that ever... if its as badass as the last mustang, i'll buy one regardless

Cylinder walls on Mexican blocks weren't thicker. They were dimensionally the same except for thicker main webs, which makes the block stronger and capable of supporting big horsepower. As for build quality, an assembly line worker is an assembly line worker. As long as the machinery is the same, it doesn't matter if the operator speaks "Engrish" or English. Consider that a vast quantity of the materials and parts in "Domestic" cars are made in Mexico, Japan, China, Taiwan, etc.

For those who don't understand, that means people in China are buying more cars built buy Ford.
if this is what there doing, im ok with it.
i was under the impression they were moving production to china... for america

Take it from someone who spent years in the auto industry. A LOT of vehicle engineering is done overseas, China and India mostly. Most of the lead engineers are in the States but anything that can be computer generated (CAD, FEA, CAE) can be done overseas to one degree or another. Seen it first hand. I dont know how much of the Mustang was done overseas, but I do have a shipping container label from a Japanese Die maker that says "2005 FORD MUSTANG, MADE IN JAPAN"
