I guess the V6 California Edition was popular enough to warrant a GT version. Cool.

It's based off of the 68' CS Mustang.

Sorry, but I couldn't picture myself driving something badged as the "California Special". WTF is that anyway? Of all the kickass mustang badges that have come and gone in the past....Boss, Mach 1, CobraJet, Bullitt.......they bring back California Special? How many ppl think of the Cali Special when they remember back to all the late 60's mustangs? Why not the New Hampshire Special?..........or how about the Montana Special? lol
I guess I can't say too much, as this is obviously just a vessel for Ford to showcase alot of the new options available for the 07 mustangs......but I wouldn't own one.

BTW, I mean no offense to the Cali ppl in here.........I just don't see what "California Special" is meant to imply. I think the whole good-vibes, Beach Boys marketing ploy played itself out about 35 years ago. I think Ford could have chanced coming up with a new and original badge for this particular mustang......I think that that's still allowed.
