2015 Ford Mustang 50th Anniversary Edition Spy Photos
Ford aims to blow up its new Mustang launch even harder.

 What It Is: A plain-jane, white-colored 2015 Ford Mustang coupe—a GT, by the looks of those “5.0” fender badges—wearing some tape and christened with a Michigan manufacturer license plate. It also happens to pack more than a few retro design cues that lead us to believe it’s a Mustang 50th Anniversary edition prototype. This limited-production release will commemorate the pony car’s golden jubilee soon after it goes on sale this year, and apparently it will do so by looking back to the car’s early days.

Why It Matters: As if the launch of an all-new Mustang wasn’t a big enough deal, the 2015 Ford Mustang 50th Anniversary model will throw more metaphorical phosphorous on the metaphorical fire. In all likelihood, the retro-themed model also was created to assuage more-traditional Mustang buyers who feel there is too much “new” in the 2015 Mustang’s design.

Well, if we are going to get particular, boxter will work just fine. Assuming the spyder is a little out of reach for me, I might be partial to the 911

Fine automobiles. I appreciate any good car, but given my age, and where I grew up, there is just something magical about American V8 muscle.

The new Mustang GTs are well executed, very, very competent automobiles. I'd take one in a heartbeat.

My preference is Corvette, yep, I'm in the demographic for that.

You can't imagine what I wouldn't give to have my old '55 Bel Air back.
