Back in June we brought you news Lee Iacocca built his very own 45th Anniversary edition Ford Mustang. Iacocca, former head of the Ford Division and most notably known as the father of the Ford Mustang built his own limited edition pony car known as the 2009 1/2 Iacocca 45th Anniversay edition Ford Mustang. The Iacocca Silver edition Mustang is custom coach-built car in cooperation with Michael Leaone and the legendary Gaffoglio Family Metalcrafters.

It has now been confirmed pricing for the 45th Anniversary edition Mustang will start at $89,950. The first one has already been auctioned off for $125K and many others have sold for over $100K.

The vehicle starts life as a 2009 Mustang GT and features custom reworked body panels including a rear fastback look, front fascia with sunken headlights, slanted grille and low stance. Iacocca hood emblem, trunk letters, Trunk Cap "I" emblem and Iacocca Design 20-inch wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle rubber round out the exterior.

Under the hood the Iacocca Silver edition Mustang will feature two engine choices including a natural aspirated 4.6-liter V-8 with 320 horsepower or a supercharged 4.6-liter V-8 with 400 horsepower. The transmission is slated to be manual only but automatics are being considered.

The interior features unique enhancements like Diamond Design leather seats with embroidery stitching, dash plaque with serial number, aluminum door sill plates and leather wrapped steering wheel with "I" badge.

Production will be limited to 45 units with each Iacocca Silver edition Mustang exclusively available for sale at Galpin Ford in Southern California. Check out a video of the Mustang galloping to Sinatra's "Fly Me To The Moon" below along with several photos.
