Mustang Most Popular First Car on Instagram

It sounds like car sales aren’t the only thing the Mustang is topping these days.

The Ford Pony car also appears to sit higher than most when it comes to popularity in the world of social media.

According to a recent study by AutoNation, which analyzed 173,292 Instagram posts, nearly half of all Americans on the social media site chose a red Mustang as their favorite first car.

The chart (above) shows the reach of the Mustang’s popularity in social media with a stronghold in California, the Southwest, and the South, as well as a few Midwest states. The Accord ranked as the second most popular car in the study, with Honda showing well overall as a brand too. The Volkswagen Beetle, Chevy Camaro, and the Honda Civic rounded out the top five on the list.
