Six continents out of seven are not bad.

The Ford Mustang has become a very popular car, not only in the United States but also to the dismay of Chevrolet Camaro owners and Dodge Challenger enthusiasts. When the S550 Mustang was launched in 2015, it became a global bestseller. There are Mustang clubs and Mustang enthusiasts all over the globe, except Antarctica.

Muscle Cars and Trucks pointed out that this factoid was not lost on Ford. MC&T was informed by Jim Owens, Mustang Marketing Manager, that there had been discussions about creating a Mustang club for Antarctica. Technically, there is a human presence in Antarctica. One only needs to be an enthusiast to create a club. Although a Mustang to Antarctica was the goal, it never happened.

This sounds like a crazy story so Motor1.com called John Clor, Ford Performance Enthusiast Communications Manager and Mustang enthusiast for more information. Clor is the driving force behind club connect, Ford’s official connection with Blue Oval enthusiast groups around the globe. Club Connect has 400 clubs registered and 800 members worldwide. The vast majority of Club Connect’s activities are Mustang-related. Clor shared some insights into the plan to capture that seven-elusive number seven.

Clor said, “I remember when Jim (Owens), brought it up back when we were looking into all the markets that the S550 was available,” Clor said that there were 146 markets across six continents and Antarctica was mentioned as a joke. We circled back to the idea after Mustang became a best-selling sports car worldwide. It would be awesome to have a presence across all continents. McMurdo Station is home to around 1,200 people, so we would only need a few of them to start a club. It’s then a matter of getting a vehicle there. So yeah, it was discussed at a more serious level.

It was obvious that things did not progress further. It’s not enough to load a Ford Mustang onto a C-130 cargo plane and fly it to Antarctica. Owens said that the payoff wasn’t worth it. We’ve seen Nissan make a wild370Z with tracks and skis . Not to mention the custom Minis built for Antarctica decades before. A Mustang club in Antarctica might be possible. And, of course, if the penguin population gets rowdy, the mere existence of a pony-hungry pony vehicle could keep them cool.
