Embodying the free-spirited ethos of the 1968 original, the new California Special is offered exclusively in convertible body style with a folding soft-top for classic looks and open-air thrills.

A special-edition design package with unique badging, detailing, 19-inch alloy wheels, and special “color shift” California Special decals delivers distinctive style, and Ford’s charismatic 450 PS V8 petrol engine provides the power for effortless cruising.

Inside, the Mustang California Special is designed to help liberate all the fun of the open road whatever the weather, with bespoke California Special detailing adding exclusive appeal.

Standard comfort technologies include heated and cooled front seats, a 12-inch customizable instrument cluster, and advanced SYNC 3 connectivity that enables drivers to call up their favorite road trip soundtrack or find directions to the nearest beach using just their voice.

A new video released today by Ford marks the Mustang California Special’s arrival in Europe by celebrating the spirit of Mustang and demonstrating that California is a state of mind to be enjoyed wherever you are.

“The California Special is a huge part of the Mustang’s legacy in America and it symbolizes so much of what Mustang stands for: The joy of driving and the freedom of the open road. Those ideals resonate just as strongly with driving enthusiasts in Europe, so it’s about time customers here got to experience the unique California Special blend of style, performance, and driving fun,” said Matthias Tonn, Mustang chief program engineer, Ford of Europe.
