Classic Heritage, Modern Innovation
From 1968 to 2026 – Reinventing the Mustang Legacy
In the late 1960s, California Ford dealers played a key role in making Mustang a cultural phenomenon. Their vision led to a special edition that captured the essence of West Coast living—the original California Special. This limited-run coupe featured standout graphics, aerodynamic styling, and distinctive red and black accents.
Today, more than five decades later, that legacy is reborn with a fresh perspective: all-electric power, signature design elements, and the unmistakable spirit of Mustang.

Design That Reflects the Ocean
A Color Story That Changes with the Light
Ford’s color and materials team created Rave Blue, a vibrant finish that shifts from light to deep violet-blue, inspired by the ever-changing Pacific waters.
“We wanted something dynamic that reflects the natural beauty of California,” shares Kristen Keenan, Ford color designer. “Rave Blue is bold, energetic, and thoroughly modern—an ideal match for this Mustang.”

A Tribute to Community, Not Just a Car
Inspired by Real Mustang Enthusiasts
The new California Special is more than just a marketing effort—it's a true passion project shaped by the Mustang community. Ford designers visited car shows, track events, and owner gatherings to listen to real feedback.
“The Rave Blue wheel accents? That idea came straight from the SEMA show,” explains exterior designer Stefan Taylor. “We watched how owners make their Mustangs unique and wanted this special edition to celebrate that creativity.”
