Ford’s little pony car has been prancing for six decades.
April 17 marks the 60th anniversary of the Mustang’s official unveiling at the 1964 New York World’s Fair.
More than 10 million have been sold since then across seven generations and Ford is celebrating with a limited edition appearance package for the 2025 car.
Why not the 2024?
FIRST LOOK: A NEW SUPERCHARGED SHELBY MUSTANG IS COMING SOON
The Mustang was intended to be launched as a 1965 model, but early examples came to be known as 1964.5 cars, although 1965 was its first full model year.

The package is being offered on the GT Premium trim in either coupe or convertible form. Both are powered by a 5.0-liter V8 and customers can choose between the six-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission options.
The package includes red and black badges and wheel center caps inspired by those form the 1965 Mustang along with a grille pattern borrowed from a 1964.5 model. The wheels are Dark Gravity Gray five-spokes with chrome highlights.
Lower door stripes with “60 Years” written in them are also a throwback to early Mustang designs and each car gets a serialized number plate.
Ford is offering the package with Wimbeldon White, Race Red or Vapor Blue paint with black, red or grey leather upholstery and will offer it on just 1,965 cars.
Pricing hasn’t been announced, but the GT Premium starts at $48,075 and the 60th Anniversary Package will be available for order this summer with the first deliveries expected before the end of the year.
