2016 Ford Mustang


California Special


Back in 1968, Californians bought 20% of America's Mustangs, so the Cali Ford
dealerships asked for their own special edition using some of the styling cues
on Shelby's “Little Red” prototype. They got the late-1968 Mustang GT/CS, but
beneath the styling stick-ons, most were plain two-barrel 289s. The California
Special is back for 2016 – right about now, in fact – but whilst the package is
still mostly stick-ons, it's only available on the top-level 5.0 V8-powered GT.
