2007 Mustang GT/CS

http://www.blueovalnews.com/index.ph..._articleid=306



CS = California Special

I have to hand it to Ford for making so many special edition Mustangs, I think it is great. Ford just needs to treat every car in makes as good as they treat the Mustang and F-150.

Re: 2007 Mustang GT/CS

So it is just a body kit?

Re: 2007 Mustang GT/CS

Ford has a penchant for adding nonfunctional scoops and stripes and calling it a special edition. In my mind, the Mustang GT is just fine as it is.

That kinda sucks...no more power?

Just the lowering and body kit huh...oh well. Even more reason for me to buy a Camaro when they come out.

However, i think that scoop looks good. So does the lowering with the wheels.

But i have never been a fan of stripes, or any vinyl looking letters/pinstripe on any car.

Yeah but it still gives more excitement to the line to the average buyer.

I would like to see more options on the next Camaro in this sense.

I think that's a pretty good looking package, the hood scoop especially w/ the other changes looks nice.

Pretty lame it doesn't have any power enhancing mods though(unless I missed them), even if it was just a catback or CAI or something that would be nice.

I agree, cat back would be nice, even if it didn't add more power. Or how about gears? A special edition Mustang with 4.10's

Messing with the engine for more power might require CAFE or EPA re-cert so I understand why everyone just puts out special editions that are just cosmetic

It may be lame, but for the target market of a bubble gum 'special' edition, its appropriate.

But always remember that in school the special kids were also the retarded kids.

Re: 2007 Mustang GT/CS

Very nice looking car. Like Stars said, I hope Chevy offers special edition packages for the Camaro.
