The Ford Mustang Wasn't The First Pony Car
The Ford Mustang Wasn't The First Pony Car - Automobile Magzine
Three forgotten pony cars that should have beaten the Mustang.

When the earliest 1965 Ford Mustangs – or the ’64 and ½ cars, as they’re sometimes called– hit dealer showrooms in early April 1964, they did more than provide an immediate boost to Ford sales and Ford Motor Company’s bottom line. These cars helped define what came to be known as the "pony car" -- a compact, stylish, affordable American sports car.

The diesel-powered A8L 3.0 TDI is a new addition to the A8 lineup.

New For 2014

The diesel-powered 2014 Audi A8L 3.0 TDI is a new addition to the A8 lineup, but other revisions to the 2014 Audi A8 are mostly cosmetic. Short-wheelbase A8 models receive power door closers and a power trunk, proximity-key entry and ignition, front and rear parking sensors, and a rearview camera. Audi's blind-spot detection system is now standard on S8 and W12 models. The face-lifted 2015 A8 is expected to debut later in 2014, but its powertrains will remain essentially unchanged.

An RS7 and A7 TDI join the range.

New For 2014

The biggest revision for the 2014 Audi A7 range is the introduction of the 2014 RS7 and the addition of the TDI diesel engine. Other revisions -- i.e. a new blacked-out exterior trim package, leather door armrests for the S7, and optional layered aluminum/wood inlays for the S7 and RS7 -- are mostly cosmetic in nature.
