2019 California Special

2019 Ford Mustang GT California Special Joins the Lineup - Motor Trend Canada

Looks pretty similar to previous generations but I read in another article that Dark Highland Green will be available on the California Special. I think it would be a mistake to offer it on anything other than the Bullitt.

I agree with the Highland Green, should be exclusive to the Bullitt. Not sure I like the CS grille, but overall its a nice package.

Cool, I had an 08 Vert loved it.
I also agree the Highland green should be Bullitt only.

I'm a bit biased but I think the 07-09 GT/CS is the best for looks and more distinguishable from a regular GT than the newer ones.

Still get people who think the CS part means Carrol Shelby.

Also agree on the green. Bullitt or nothing.

I agree as well. If they need a nice classy green for the CS, The dark metallic (Jewel, or Gem...something like that) green that was available recently on the F150s would look really good.

I really like that colour, I believe it was an option on the Mustang in 2015.

The F150 had or maybe still has Gem Green as an option which looks black a lot of the time.

Eww...no! Lol, not Guard...this colour...




You've probably seen it many times, and thought it was black. Under the right light, it really pops!

Exactly. That would look great on a Mustang.

Ahhhh....yes, I see now, that Green Gem really does pop in the sunlight, agreed, much nicer than Guard.
