In December 2006, the FASB issued FSP EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements” (“FSP 00-19-2”), which addresses accounting for registration payment arrangements. FSP 00-19-2 specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”. FSP 00-19-2 further clarifies that a financial instrument subject to a registration payment arrangement should be accounted for in accordance with other applicable generally accepted accounting principles without regard to the contingent obligation to transfer consideration pursuant to the registration payment arrangement. For registration payment arrangements and financial instruments subject to those arrangements that were entered into prior to the issuance of EITF 00-19-2, this guidance shall be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On October 5, 2007, the Company issued for aggregate consideration of $40,000, a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $40,000. The promissory note has a line of credit of up to $200,000 and is due October 5, 2009, and bears interest at 8% per annum.
In February 2007 the Company issued 8,000,000 shares of common stock at $.0001 per share to the Founders of the Company for $800.
In February 2008 the Company sold 2,800,000 shares of common stock at $.025 per share pursuant to its public offering. The Company received net proceeds of $44,964.

Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q (the “Report”). This Report contains forward-looking statements which relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
For a description of such risks and uncertainties refer to our Registration Statement on Form SB-2, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 2, 2008. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Business Overview
We are focused on the business of marketing and selling anti-lock braking systems produced in China to the auto parts and auto manufacturing market in the United States. Our goal is to offer to the US market, high quality anti-lock braking systems produced in China, at a competitive price. With adequate funding we feel that we are well positioned to execute our business plan.
Plan of Operation
The company will initially focus on the development of a marketing plan and website. Within the next 6 months, we hope to employ marketing professionals to assist us in the development of our marketing plan.
Results of Operations
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we incurred a net loss of $78,926. We have no operations, so our net loss for the fiscal quarter ended are a result of professional services and other expenses.
Revenues
We had no revenues for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our balance sheet as of September 30, 2008, reflects cash of $7,014, which constitutes 100% of the Company’s assets. Cash from inception to date has been sufficient to provide the operating capital necessary to operate.
Notwithstanding, we anticipate generating losses and therefore we may be unable to continue operations in the future. If we require additional capital, we would have to issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.
Going Concern Consideration
The Company is a development stage company and has not commenced planned principal operations. The Company had no revenues and incurred a net loss of $78,926 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and a net loss of $83,424 for the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to September 30, 2008. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be generated during the next year or thereafter from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital could force the Company to curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)) during the period covered by this report and have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information relating to us is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported in a timely manner. There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the last day they were evaluated by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, there was no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Mustang’s management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, do not expect that its disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management’s override of the control. The design of any systems of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Individual persons perform multiple tasks which normally would be allocated to separate persons and therefore extra diligence must be exercised during the period these tasks are combined. It is also recognized Mustang has not designated an audit committee and no member of the board of directors has been designated or qualifies as a financial expert. The Company should address these concerns at the earliest possible opportunity.
