Besides the Iacocca Edition's limited run, what makes this car cost $90,000 are the high- tech materials it's made of.

These cars start out as factory-built Mustangs, but they're torn apart and rebuilt with new bodies.

Their original sheet metal is completely removed and mostly replaced with "composite construction laminate," a light-weight but strong material that's used mostly for race cars.

The most obvious difference, visually, from a stock 2009 Mustang is that the Iacocca Editions are "fastback" cars, meaning that the roof line flows cleanly down to the back with no flat "deck" for the trunk lid. Also, the car's lines have been smoothed out. The rear bumper and taillights, for instance, are flush with the back of the car and don't bulge out.
