Ford Performance Looking For Any 2005 "Yankees Edition" Mustang Models
Over the years, Ford has introduced plenty of short-lived or extremely rare Mustangs. But seldom does a limited production model coincide with one of baseball’s most famous teams. For a brief time in 2005, 60 Ford dealers in the Tri-State area (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut) offered their customers the chance to purchase a “Yankees Edition” Mustang. All 60 came painted in the world-famous Yankees pinstriping as well as the instantly-recognizable “NY” logo on the hood and doors.
There’s just one problem. Ford Performance wants to obtain some decent photos of one for an upcoming story, but is having trouble tracking down any remaining examples.
Why might that be? For starters, every Yankees Edition Mustang was autographed with at least the name of one team member. That alone makes them quite collectible, to say nothing of their very special paint. And as previously mentioned, only 60 units were ever made, which means they’re extremely rare.
Beyond that, there really isn’t much information about the Yankees Edition Mustang models. All that’s known is that it was produced for the 2005 model year, offered only as a convertible and came equipped with the 4.0L V6. There was also a one-off 2010 Yankees Edition Mustang, but that was powered by the 4.6L V8.
