It's disappointing to see the direction Ford is going with the new Mustang, and I'll admit I don't care for the idea of a euro-styled Mustang, but I'm going to wait and see what it looks like before condemning it. This is a pretty big shift for Ford and for the Mustang, especially coming at this point in time with the new mpg requirements and the desire to make the Mustang more appealing to people outside the U.S. They have quite the task on their hands.

On a related note, Gotta Have it Green (up until now, exclusive to '13 Mustangs) will be available on 2014 Fiestas! It will be called "Green Envy" on the Fiestas, but it has the same paint code as Gotta Have it Green. Looks like it will replace Lime Squeeze. Also, upper trim level 2014 Fiestas will finally get MyFord Touch, Navigation & the Sony Audio System as options like the Focus has had on the '12's and '13's.

I know it's a bummer for you guys who didn't purchase a Boss yet, But it not being offered next year is the Best news I've read in awhile.
I loved having a 2 year production model in the Mach1 and now the Boss 302..
Having it continue would just put it into the Shelby type category, Shelby 07,08,09,10,11,12,13 etc etc...

I wanted to see how an s197 Mach 1 would look like,I guess that aint gonna happen.I also wanted to see a Bullitt with this body style,I think Ford should celebrate the Mustang's 50th by realeasing some models celebrating the stangs history

Stripes of any color and any reflection can be had by any decent aftermarket detail shop. Not that big a deal. And don't say price is an issue, because anyone buying a Shelby has no business complaining about $$$.

Black, Grabber Blue and PERFORMANCE white just yell 'Mustang' to me.

replacing maroon with maroon & white with white is total nonsense, even with the cars parked next to each other you could barely tell the difference

Ginger Ale is an awful color. I saw a new Escape and Taurus with it. Not a fan. Kodiak Brown might be interesting. Is have to see it first.
I still think we're ripe for a Bullitt to send this car off. Take the goodies from the Boss 302 and GT500, sprinkle in some FRPP stuff, and simplify it, and you're set. With the design going modern, I don't see a better time to do it as a one year SE and parts bin special.

Any chance Brian's digging could relate to a Bullitt??
Base GT 300A & 301A: New option called "GT Appearance Package," option code 542.
Here's hoping
