Next Specialty Mustang Is On The Way http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com...=2&u_java=true15 June 2005

BlueOvalNews.com. Dearborn, Michigan. Despite the possibility that Ford is poised sell 200,000 Mustangs in 2005, Ford plans to keep the Mustang fresh with new models. In addition to the 2007 Shelby GT500 (see videos) and the recently announced 2006 V6 Pony Edition, sources on Team Mustang told BlueOvalNews that they will introduce another specialty model.

Move over Bullitt, Mach
According to a member of Team Mustang, it didn't take Ford long to decide on the next specialty Mustang to succeed the Bullitt and Mach1. No, it won't be a GT350 or a Boss - but it will be a Mustang nameplate from the late 1960s.

The California Special Mustang will feature some items from the 2007 Shelby GT500, however, the California Special itself will be based off of a Mustang GT and will be a limited production model.

Sources at Team Mustang told BlueOvalNews that the California Special Mustang it set to appear after the Shelby GT500 hits the streets.

Has anyone seen pictures of the California Special under the hood? I have read that it will have the engine cover with pony. I have only seen the same press photos so far...nothing under the hood showing if it is identical to the one on the original concept car.

Yes. It will have the intake cover. It also comes with the GT appearance package so you don't have to get the cheesy CS package.
