2016 is a big model year for the Ford Mustang, with the first of the next generation Shelby Mustang fastbacks debuting in the form of the new GT350 and GT350R. There is also the introduction of the newest GT California Special, but not just those folks looking to buy a higher priced model. Ford has announced that the 2016 Mustang GT will get a new optional Black Accent Package while the EcoBoost Premium Mustang gets a new Pony Package – both of which are strictly aesthetic upgrades. Also, anyone buying a 2016 Mustang with either the 2.3L EcoBoost or the 5.0L V8 can opt for a new black roof package that is exactly what it sounds like.
“Mustang enthusiasts are not shy about telling us what they want,” said Melanie Banker, Mustang marketing manager, “and we’re constantly exploring ideas together with our engineering team to develop new features we know our customers will love. These new hood vent indicators for the GT model are a perfect example of us communicating customer feedback to Mustang engineers and the team responding with an exclusive new feature for owners of the 2016 Mustang GT.”
