MONTEBELLO, Calif., Jan. 6, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Capitalizing on the popularity of the new Ford Mustang, Katzkin offers a customization package to satisfy a demand for the latest iteration of this historic muscle car.
Since 1964, Mustang has captivated enthusiasts the world over. The 2005 model marries a modern design with all the heart and soul of the legend. Bold styling and a muscular powertrain make this Mustang a breakthrough that remains loyal to its 40-year tradition.
Katzkin's "Create Your Own" Package includes a selection of chrome badges for the car's exterior with names like "Stang", "Venom" and "Speed" for the younger generation, and "Muscle", "American Classic", and "Vintage" for more experienced aficionados. The Package also includes seat embroidery, an optional dash kit, and three styles of seats - single-toned, two-toned, and a wild Cobra-like design. Each seat is available in any of Katzkin's 80 colors and materials.
"Demographics show that the Mustang is a car that everyone wants," says Miles Hubbard, Katzkin's Director of Marketing. "We felt it was imperative to offer a wide range of options to accommodate the myriad of personalities that gravitate to the Mustang."
It's Katzkin's hope that the Mustang Package will be a boost to aftermarket restylers, the Company's primary target market. "Mustang is the hot ticket right now," says Katzkin owner Mitch Katz. "This is the ideal time for restylers to seize the moment, and get this package in front of Ford dealerships nationwide."
Katzkin, which boasts an estimated 400 units per day with 24 to 48-hour turn around time, previously unheard of in the restyling market, is known for its model specific customization packages. The Mustang Package, however, is even more specialized, offering a wider range of options than ever before.
