Sixty years and seven generations after the Ford Mustang debuted at the 1964 New York World’s Fair, Ford is celebrating the heritage of one of the most iconic vehicles in automotive history with a limited-edition Mustang 60th Anniversary appearance package.
"We took inspiration from the original Mustang and applied some of the most special design elements to the latest in this limited production run," said Matt Simpson, Ford Enthusiast Vehicles general manager, "Mustang’s design DNA has never been stronger or more enduring than this multi-generational tribute.”
The Ford Mustang 60th Anniversary appearance package is only available for the GT Premium with 5.0-liter V8 and will be available on both coupe and convertible models with either manual or automatic transmissions.
Building upon the iconic design cues that have defined the Mustang, it features a unique dash plaque and exclusive exterior features that create a special look and feel that brings classic accents of the original car that debuted in 1964 into the modern era.
“The design was directly inspired by the clean silhouette of the original car,” said Stefan Taylor, senior designer, “During the design process, we looked closely at the finely detailed elements of the 1965 Mustang, like the fender badges and wheel center caps. Our focus was capturing the feel of the ‘65, while also staying true to the Mustang as the modern sports car that it is.”
• Exclusive 60th Anniversary badges on the fenders and trunk lid are a modern take on the 1965 Mustang cloisonné badges.
• Unique 20-inch wheels finished in Dark Gravity Gray with bright machined details featuring a Vermillion Red, retro-themed stamped aluminum center cap inspired by the 1965 Mustang center caps.
• Exclusive side graphics which can be optioned in either Iconic Silver or Vermillion Red and are reminiscent of Mustang’s original rocker panel stripes.
• New grille with a unique mesh design as a callback to the 1964 original made modern with silver-accented nostrils that are also functional air intakes for the 5.0-liter V8.
• Smoked housing of standard Mustang Nite Pony headlights allows silver-accented nostrils to stand out.
• Available in classic Wimbledon White, modern Race Red and Vapor Blue colors
• Iconic Silver mirror caps on Race Red, Vapor Blue cars callback to chrome mirrors of old, while Wimbledon White cars adopt body-color mirror caps.
• Serialized 60th Anniversary instrument panel badge.
• Interior colors are available in Space Gray, Carmine Red or Black Onyx.
• The Ford Mustang 60th Anniversary Package is a limited-production model, with only 1,965 being made available as a nod to the official first model year of the car.
In commemorating sixty years of Mustang legacy, Ford's limited-edition 60th Anniversary appearance package bridges the timeless allure of the original 1964 model with modern innovation. With meticulous attention to detail and inspired by the iconic silhouette, this exclusive offering embodies the enduring spirit of the Mustang across generations.

Infiniti’s latest offering, the QX55, represents a bold step forward in the world of luxury crossover SUVs. Designed to capture the attention of youthful drivers with refined tastes, this vehicle bridges the gap between sportiness and practicality, elegance and utility. The story of the QX55 is one of inspiration, innovation, and the push to create something truly unique, combining artistic expression with functional design. The Infiniti QX55 is a modern reinterpretation of the coupe-like crossover concept that Infiniti pioneered with its FX series years ago. However, the QX55 adds a fresh layer of sophistication and youthfulness that caters to the desires of a new generation of drivers. The inspiration for the QX55’s design stemmed from a bold challenge between Infiniti’s design team and the company’s visionaries. The goal? To create a practical crossover that retains the luxurious appeal Infiniti is known for while appealing to younger drivers seeking an expressive yet functional vehicle.
The journey to craft the QX55 was not without its challenges. Designers had to strike a balance between dynamic aesthetics and daily usability. Infiniti sought to avoid the common pitfalls of overly aggressive styling that often sacrifices comfort or practicality. Instead, they focused on creating a streamlined, coupé-like silhouette that hints at performance, without compromising on the essential interior space expected of an SUV.
