And Ford engineers have used those ancestral DNA studies to create a deeper connection between us and our Mustangs – which is what we’re going to take a closer look at here.

“We work to identify that signature sound DNA that connects drivers to the emotional expectation they have for a specific car. Strum a chord on an acoustic guitar, and you get a clean, simple sound wave – that’s your quiet Brahms’ Lullaby kind of mood.
