I noticed a heap of the new Mustangs on the freeway yesterday.

There is this nice dark red colour.

Ford is on a winner, the Mustang has something for everyone, the V8 and the turbo 4.

I think '78 had a badge on the boot lid, but it said FORD but it wasn't an Oval.

S197 has FORD on the faux gas cap, think the old school ones do to.

It does however carry the Ford Oval Logo the exact same logo on every Ford that is manufactured around the world.
As for clutching on to straws, lol the only thing I clutch on to is this.

Very nice, but you were quoting my post that said they don't wear the Ford Badge - and they dont

Early Mustangs had Ford lettering , 80's & 90s mustangs had the ford logo on the front!, by 2000 they wore in only on the rear, I believed it was 2005 they dropped for Ford Badge.

Sorry I didn't realise the new ones had the logo (not in blue) on the window.. is that Global as I've seen picture of them without it.

there's a few Shelby powered by Ford Badges I've seen
