There was a time where they had the Fiesta and Focus ST and RS models, in addition to Mustangs, but they never seem to have this stuff for very long and it just evaporates. They played with the Ford GT, but that wasn't really like a production model, just a limited concept. They don't seem to do stuff like CTS-Vs, V-blackwings, multiple 2-door sports cars, etc. They build everything on the Mustang.

And they're STILL no where as successful as GM when it comes to the corvette.
Doesn't matter what variant ford did with the mustang. The GT350, the mach1, the GT500, the new mustang GT etc etc.
Yes it'll sell but none of those cars were ever desired or as popular as corvettes, especially now with the C8 generation. Everyone and their mother were doing the dream C8 builds and posting it on their IG and facebook. Then it happened again with the C8 z06.
I never saw anyone do a dream build on a GT500 so they can show it off on social media lol
