The Ford Mustang might be a game-changing pony with lots of horsepower, but it actually comes in different versions. That should make the Mustang appealing to more people, especially to those who are looking beyond the horizon. Blending performance with affordability, the 2022 Ford Mustang is giving customers two more purchasing reasons when it arrives early next year– the Stealth Edition Appearance Package and the updated Mustang GT California Special.
Making A Mustang More Menacing With Stealth Edition
Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium customers can make their pony look more menacing with the Stealth Edition Appearance Package. As its name suggests, the Mustang Stealth Edition appears ready to strike in a sinister manner thanks to several blacked-out appointments that complement any of the available exterior finishes (Atlas Blue, Carbonized Gray, Dark Matter and Shadow Black).
The Stealth Edition Appearance Package includes black pony badges, a performance rear wing, black mirror caps, clear LED taillamp covers (shared with the new Mustang Ice White Appearance Package), as well as 19-inch Ebony Black-painted aluminum wheels. Inside, the Mustang Stealth Edition features a matte and gloss black instrument panel badge as well as lighted sill plate.
California Special Returns For 2022 Mustang
Available to the 2022 Ford Mustang GT Premium fastback and convertible models, the California Special Appearance Package pays tribute to the original California Special with cues such as a blacked-out grille, side racing stripes, and rear fender scoop. Complementing the blacked-out honeycomb grille (with “GT/CS” badge) is the California Special badge in Ebony Black and Race Red script on the trunk lid.
Featuring heritage-inspired “GT/CS” side racing stripe, the Mustang California Special rides on five-spoke 19-inch painted machined wheels and features a signature strut tower brace under the hood with California Special badge atop the 5.0-liter V8 engine.
Inside, the California Special dons black Miko sueded-trimmed door inserts and sueded-trimmed seats with (embossed “GT/CS” logo and red contrast stitching). The floor features embroidered “GT/CS” floor mats. Finished in carbon hex aluminum, the instrument panel comes with a California Special script badge on the passenger side.
GT Performance Package Option Available With California Special
The 2022 Mustang California Special is now available with the GT Performance Package, which installs several performance and handling features. These include chassis tuning with heavy-duty front springs, larger tubular rear sway bar, overall lower ride height, Torsen limited-slip differential, and Brembo six-piston front brake calipers.
Riding on staggered 19x9-inch front and 19x9.5-inch rear wheels shod with Pirelli summer rubbers, the Performance Package also adds a larger front splitter as well as a performance rear wing (only for the fastback model).
