RANDLEMAN, N.C. — AC/DC lead singer Brian Johnson has bought his first Mustang GT from Richard Petty’s Garage, based in Randleman.

“This Mustang has just taken my breath away,” said Johnson, according to Ford. “It really is one of the best cars I’ve ever driven. I didn’t have an American car, but I do now!”

Ford is teaming with Petty’s Garage to create a new 627-hp Mustang GT, according to Auto World News. Two versions will reportedly be built this year.

The car that Johnson bought comes in at $92,210. Orders for the limited edition Mustang can be placed at any Ford dealership.

You could say that the Mustang left Johnson thunderstruck. After all, she was a fast machine. He may even drive it down a highway to… Well, you get the point.
