I have fond memories of my two Mustangs: a '67 Shelby GT350 (#1462) and a '86 SVO Mustang. Both fun cars. The Shelby was pretty cool, and the SVO was a very quick and great handling car.
However, my 2001 RT/10 is more fun that the two of them were combined.

I'm not really a fan of Mustangs, but regardless Happy Birthday! 
Over the weekend, actually Saturday night I was watching a recording of the Mecum Auction that was held down in Florida and there were some very nice Mustangs being auctioned off. I'm not really a fan of any new Mustang(unless it's Saleen or the new Cobras), but I do like older Mustangs and their were some nice ones sold on that show.

BOSS 302 all the way!! Happy 100th also to GM and their new 2012 ZO6 black/special edition.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the Mustang
Look at it this way,,,it started the trend for mass produced, higher horsepower, smaller cars which inspired the other manufactuers to notice the Mustang's early, huge sales figures.
I think we all benefitted from the 'Stang.
My first pony was a '70 fastback, 351 Cleveland, 4bbl and
my current daily driver is a '04 'Stang convert.

I still miss my '83 5.0, I was 16yrs. old and was the coolest car you could have at the time(as if just being 16 wasn't cool enough). It regularly blew off 6.6 TA's, Z/28's and just about anything current at that time.
Unfortunately, I was an inexperienced HI-PO driver and rolled it within 6month, thankfully not a scratch on me.
It took me 14years to replace it with another Mustang( my '66 GT350H), but it was worth the wait!
Happy Birthday Mustang!

My former daily driver was a 2003 Cobra...a great car. (Sold it last April to a guy that already totalled it)
All that being said...Mopar guys know that the Barracuda was released 6 weeks before the Mustang. Yeah, yeah, "Valiant with a fastback"....blah, blah, blah....Mustang was a Falcon with a fastback too.

Ahhh... fond memories.... My 88 Mustang was my first love, and the whole reason I got into cars. I still own that car.... its had nitrous, superchargers, big blocks, big blocks on nitrous, twin turbos, a single 88mm turbo... and now it's engineless cause I think they are fugly now. lol
So as tribute, I present you what I think is the the best Mustang to date... the 2007+ Shelby GT500. This one is a car I tune, and we head down to Vegas and race PSCA Extreme Drag Radial once in a while. In PSCA trim with twin 88's, at 3500 pounds, no wheeile bars, and a small block on gasoline... 7.0s at 206+ mph. I LOVE this car!

I had a 67 coupe 289 auto in 1979... power nothing... Never really did anything for me... I will admit that I cruised through the Ford dealer at lunchtime today to see what they had in stock...
