FOOSE STALLION MUSTANG NOW AVAILABLE THROUGH ALL NORTH AMERICAN FORD DEALERSHIPS DALLAS – January 5, 2007 – Unique Performance has expanded distribution of the
Foose Stallion Mustang by introducing a new base model for all North American
Ford Dealerships. Deliveries of the first Foose Stallions began in June 2006
and demand has steadily grown for the stylish, high performance pony car over
the past six month. Response to the Foose Stallion led Unique Performance to
introduce additional models at SEMA in November 2006. Designed by Foose and
built by Unique Performance Concepts, all custom versions of the Ford Mustang
were recently only available through Ford select dealers. Unique Performance
Concepts is a joint venture between Unique Performance and the Tecstar
Automotive Group, a subsidiary of Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide
(Nasdaq: QTWW). “The Foose Stallion is responsive and fluid, powerful and dynamic, superbly
crafted and unmistakably Foose in every element of its design,” said Unique
Performance President Douglas Hasty. “During the first few months of
production, many consumers have asked for additional versions of the car. This
new base model expands the Foose Stallion models available so drivers now have
the opportunity to own an even rarer custom car.” Available in coupe and
convertible configuration, the team enhanced the handling, styling and
capabilities of the current Ford Mustang to create the Foose Stallion.
Performance enhancements include a Ford Racing exhaust and suspension and
11-inch rear and 12-inch front DecelaRotors. In addition, Chip’s touch can also
be found throughout the Stallion. From Foose embroidered seats and Foose sill
plates to the Foose ID plate and signature logo on the dash, the famed designer
put his stamp on this modern muscle car. Rounding out the modifications is an
upper and lower billet grille and 20-inch Foose Nitrous wheels. This base
package is available at a MSRP of only US$36,365.00. “The Foose Stallion is resonating with so many enthusiasts that we wanted to
broaden its distribution,” noted Chip Foose. “So we created another version of
the car that offers outstanding custom looks and performance. I’m proud of this
Foose designed car, which will be available to even more people thanks to all
of the Ford dealers across the United States.” A supercharged edition of the Foose Stallion will be launched in the first
quarter of 2007. The supercharged Foose Stallion will be available only through
exclusive Foose Stallion performance dealers. Details regarding the
supercharged edition will be released shortly. “Our goal was to build custom
cars that deliver a satisfying ownership experience,” explained Hasty. “That’s
why every Foose Stallion has stylish good looks, uncompromising performance and
available with a broad list of options. And since we’ll only build a few
thousand Foose Stallions per year, each one will be among the most exclusive
signature series production cars in the world.”About Unique Performance Unique Performance creates performance vehicles,
