The 2008 Ford Mustang and Shelby GT500 order guides are now available
for every Mustang fan to ponder upon and figure out what options are
going to be on their next pony car. 2008 is set to be a direct
carryover year, but there are some subtle changes the discerning eye is
sure to catch. More detail to follow.
Three colors are being dropped while three new ones are replacing
them: Silver Clearcoat Metallic (YN), Dark Candy Apple Red Clearcoat
Metallic (JV), and Vapor Clearcoat Metallic (ZY) are set to replace
Satin Silver, Redfire, Tungsten, respectively.
Some significant options slated for 2008 include ambient interior
lighting (95M), HID headlamps (51H) and the V6 Mustang coupes will have
an option to wear some new shoes--the 18 inch Premium Polished Forged
Wheels. Additionally, the V6 coupe will have a new V6 Safety &
Security Package offering Anti-Lock Brakes, Traction Control, Active
Anti-Theft System and a wheel locking kit. Side-impact airbags will be
standard on all 2008 Ford Mustang models.
Holding true to form, Ford is going to launch the Warriors In Pink
Package (54S). It will have an automatic transmission coated in just
three colors: Black, Performance White, and Silver Metallic. On the
inside, the Warriors In Pink package upgrades to the GT Leather Seats
that have Pink contrasted stitching, dons the IUP package steering
wheel with Pink stitching, a lower rocker stripe in Pink metallic, some
charcoal floormats with Pink trim & pony logo.
The GT-CS (California Special) is back on the scene in two of the
three new colors offered: Dark Candy Apple Red and Silver Clearcoat
Metallic.
Not much has changed for the 2008 Shelby GT500--its only noteworthy
change is the addition of HID headlamps as well as the ambient lighting
options found on the other production Ford Mustang models. One new
color has been added to the pallet for the GT500: Vapor Clearcoat
Metallic (ZY).
We don't see any hints at the 2008 Bullitt or the 2008 Boss Mustang
in the order guides (below), however we trust that Ford will hold to
its promise that we'll see it offered for 2008.
