i have a guy up the street with a navy blue 06-07 mustang its real sharp looking, and on the side it says "GT/CS" ive never seen one that says CS on it. i dont know if its ricer power stickers or if its a model i dont know about. can anyone lend some info? just curious

 

If it says "GT/CS" on a fading, mid-body stripe then it is definitely NOT a ricer power sticker. It is going to be an 07 or 08 GT California Special. It has a different front and rear fascia than the stock GT (has the same ones as the Shelby GT's). It also has the lower quarter scoops and a two tone interior treatment standard. It is modeled after the 1968 GT/CS edition. The '68 had Shelby GT-350 styling cues and was only available in California.

I'm not sure why GT/CS's seem to be so rare (I've noticed the same thing) since you can order the CS package on any GT, so it's not exactly "Limited Production". At the dealer I found my white 08 CS at, they had 3 Shelby GT's and a Bullitt... but only the one CS.

HTH.

 

i was at a ford dealership a few months ago and they had 3 or 4 Gt/CS's and i asked the salesman what it meant and he didnt know and ive been wondering what it meant since then. so thanks for clearin it up.

 

GT/CS FTW!!

 

they do look nice although where i live for every 10 cars 2 of them are stangs and thats the only GTCS ive seen so i guess either they're not selling or people dont have a clue and get baseline GT's instead

 

Ford made about 5160 GT/CSs in 2007...don't know what the 08 count will be. I live in a mid-size town in PA and it took my dealer almost 10 months to get a GT/CS on the lot...and its the one I bought the day they took it off the truck (I was a walk-in). He has since received two 08's...don't know why 08s are more available.
