Watch Ford drifting a 2015 Mustang GT through China's "Ghost City"

For the first time in its 50 year history, the Ford Mustang is being sold in China. In fact, the initial shipment of 100 muscle cars left Portland, Ore., on route to China less than a month ago, just in time to wave goodbye to the Chinese Year of the Horse.

And what better way to mark that occasion than by taking the 2015 Mustang GT with Vaughn Gittin Jr. at the helm and dropping the pair off in Ordos, Inner Mongolia. The result is just as smoky as you imagine.

While Gittin Jr. larks around burning glorious rubber, the most impressive part is how few tire marks are on the ground prior to the record button being depressed. In most cases, it appears it took the drifting maestro no more than three takes to make Internet perfection, which is quite impressive when you think about it. And as for the streets themselves: Ordos was the scene of a property and construction speculation bubble so huge, it's now dozens of square miles of all-but-abandoned new roads and buildings, earning it the title of "China's Ghost City."

With its global launch underway, Ford has been producing many viral snippets with its new Mustang. And given China is saying goodbye to the Year of the Horse, making this particular one is apt; after all, what car would you use to celebrate the Year of the Sheep?
