A few too many

I've heard people groan whenever there's a new variant of the Ford Mustang; most of these are by tuners such as Roush and Saleen, or unofficial dealer packages for upsale. There are only 10 official models: three basics (V6, GT, GT500), each available as a coupe or convertible, and a Premium upgrade for the non-GT500 models. Ford also had some limited editions: the "Warriors in Pink" for breast cancer awareness and the California Special (non-GT500), plus the Boss 302 and Bullitt (unavailable in convertible). That's at least six more, but those were more likely to be a single spread towards the back of a brochure mentioning possibilities.

However, as of this article from Jalopnik, I can safely say that the Mustang is off the hook for confusing lineup. I'm sure any of those 20 Porsches drive just fine, but they now have the market cornered for needless variants.
