California Special is Back for 2007

California SpecialMustang momentum continues to grow with the introduction of the uniquely styled, limited edition 2007 Mustang GT/CS ( California Special.) The $1,895 option package bows this summer nationwide on coupe or convertible in 5 colors. It’s the first of several planned Mustang “Feature Car” offerings from Ford in 2007.

Much like the 1968 GT/CS that offered Mustang buyers more aggressive styling that was ‘Inspired by the Shelby GT’ the new California Special also draws some cues from the 2007 Shelby. What’s more, it offers the kind of limited-production exclusivity that has made the original California Special such a big favorite with Mustang collectors over the years.

The 2007 version has an aggressive front fascia with an integrated chin spoiler that sits 1.5 inches lower than the Mustang GT to provide a larger air opening for increased cooling performance. Familiar California Special style bodyside racing stripes run from the front fenders across the doors and fade-out at the end of the door.

Out back, a unique rear fascia styled with less ‘tuck-in’ features a lower air-diffuser design that is similar to the rear of the 2007 Shelby GT500 itself inspired by the rear diffuser on the Ford GT supercar. As an added touch, the dual exhaust system on the new Mustang GT/CS sports bright, rolled tips for a cleaner, more refined appearance. The car will also come standard with the Mustang GT’s optional 18-inch polished aluminum wheels and performance tires. (Those seeking further differentiation can even add a hood scoop by ordering the GT Appearance Package.) The engine will don a special GT/CS cover, but like in 1968, the new GTCS will not have any more power than the stock GT.
