“Mustang has thrived for 60 years by taking risks and giving customers something a little bit different, a little bit more special than you’d get elsewhere. By dropping a color like this, we’re giving customers a chance to stand out even among the rarefied ranks of Mustang 60th Anniversary owners,” said Joe Bellino, Mustang brand manager.
The Ford Mustang 60th Anniversary Package remains a limited-production run, with 1965 in total being made as a marketing reference [ploy?] to 1965, the first model year of the original Pony car. Customers interested in purchasing a Mustang 60th Anniversary package in Brittany Blue can register their interest at Ford.com between August 16 and 19.
