SYDNEY, 9 October, 2019 – Ford Mustang enthusiasts in Australia can look forward to the latest local edition of the world’s best-selling sport coupe, as Ford introduces the Mustang R-SPEC to dealerships across Australia from early 2020. The special-edition model, with a strictly limited run of 500 units, is the result of a collaboration between Ford Australia and Herrod Performance, and brings Australian customers a Ford dealer network-backed, supercharged Mustang for the first time in history. Distinguished by a series of exterior design and interior elements, each Mustang R-SPEC will be individually numbered and badged. The model will be available for pre-order from October 10, with a Recommended Manufacturer List Price (MLP) of $99,9801.


“We have been working hard with Herrod Performance to deliver a supercharged Mustang to Australian customers,” said Kay Hart, President and CEO, Ford Australia and New Zealand. “Now, working with Herrod Performance, we’ve been able to bring this special edition Mustang to Australian customers through our extensive dealership network, and with the peace-of-mind of five-year, unlimited kilometre warranties backed by Ford and Herrod.”


Available exclusively in the Fastback body with a 6-speed manual, the Mustang R-SPEC will be available nationally at Ford dealerships, and will deliver customers an individually-numbered, special edition Mustang with unique exterior treatments as well as a mechanical package that puts driving at the heart of its mantra. The supercharged R-SPEC was developed through a collaboration with Herrod Performance as a second-stage manufacturer. It will be added to the Ford Mustang line-up going in to 2020, bringing more choice, more power and more Mustang to Australian buyers. Completing the Mustang 2020 line-up are the turbocharged Mustang 2.3L High Performance and naturally-aspirated 5.0-litre GT model.
