In the early '60s the only American sports car was the Corvette which was too pricey for most. The Thunderbird had grown into a large luxury car. Imported sports cars, mostly from England, were selling well. Within a few years the post-war baby boomers would be buying their first car. The Mustang II concept car generated a lot of excitement and led to the first Mustang less than a year later.

Ford was not unaware of how popular the car would be. Ford Motor Company announced when the first television commercial would be shown and 29 million people tuned in to see it. The next day, the first day of availability, Ford sold 22,000 Mustangs.
