Just the other day, we reported (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/09/28/dodge-challenger-srt-hellcat-0001-825k-charity-auction-barrett-jackson/) on the first Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat (http://www.autoblog.com/dodge/challenger+srt8/) selling for a whopping $825,000 at auction. But impressive as that sum was, the Challenger (http://www.autoblog.com/dodge/challenger/) wasn't the only sought-after modern muscle car to cross the Barrett-Jackson (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/barrett-jackson/) auction block in Las Vegas this past weekend. So did this rare Ford Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/mustang/).
The last of 1,964 special-edition 50 Years Limited Edition (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/04/16/2015-ford-mustang-50-year-limited-edition-new-york-2014/) pony cars sold for a princely $170,000, with proceeds benefiting the Edith and Benson Ford Heart & Vascular Institute, a branch of the Henry Ford Health System.
The pony car in question is based on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and upgrades with a performance package and nearly every option on the book, along with a unique appearance package to set it apart in celebration of the Mustang's 50th anniversary. It's available in two exclusive shades - Wimbledon white or Kona blue - with either a manual or automatic transmission. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples were to be built, and this was the last of them.Continue reading Ford Mustang 50th anniversary edition brings in $170k (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/09/30/ford-mustang-50th-anniversary-edition-170k-charity-auction/)
