[edit]50 Year Limited Edition (2015)
[edit]Unveiled at the New York International Auto Show on April 16, 2014,[1] the Mustang 50 Year Limited Edition celebrated the fifty-year anniversary since the first generation model was released.[2] The vehicle was produced in two colors, Kona Blue and Wimbledon White—the latter of which was the paint worn by the first Mustang ever produced.[3] Ford produced a total 1,964 units, symbolizing the year the first Mustang was introduced, 1964.[4] A one-off convertible version of the 50 Year Limited Edition Mustang was raffled for charity during the Woodward Dream Cruise on August 16, 2014, with proceeds supporting the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.[5]
Essentially a modified GT, the 50 Year Limited Edition model was available with either a manual or automatic transmission.[2] Additional details included louvered rear quarter-windows made from layered sheets of glass, a cashmere-stitched leather-wrapped steering wheel, and cashmere stitching on the instrument panel, shifter boot, center armrest, door inserts, and seats. The interior also featured exclusive two-tone cashmere and black leather upholstery, Mustang 50 Year logos embroidered on the seat backs, and loop-carpet floor mats with cashmere stitching and suede binding.
