I'm torn here. I found one of each of these. Can't decide.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Does the 20" wheel car have the Premium Interior Trim package?

If not, I'd get the AP car since it comes with it and you get the nicer interior bits.

Do you like chrome? If so get the 50th.

Personally, I don't want a bunch of stuff saying "50th" all over my car and seats and then have some gaudy looking chrome to boot.

Gaudy? There are very minor touches of chrome here and there. I think its done very tastefully. It only says 50th one time on the exterior (faux gas cap) and twice on the interior (seats and small badge on dasboard). I always buy after market wheels so I opted for the 50th package btw,

They're both GT Premiums, so similar interiors?
No, it's not the same.

There is an option 68B that is the "Premier Trim with Color Accent Group". This gives you some extras on the interior like the soft touch door panels, contrast stitching and what seems like better leather seating surfaces. These are also included in the 50 Year AP.

A GT Premium w/o the AP or the "Premier Trim with Color Accent Group" option will not have these upgrades.

I saw the 20s for the first time this weekend and they are fantastic. The best looking wheels on the 2015 in my opinion for what that's worth.

Personally I don't care for the chrome trim on the AP. But like above that's just my opinion.

I have seen both in person and the reality is you can't go wrong with either choice. Don't listen to us, go with your gut.

The seats are gorgeous and the "embossing" for 50 Years and the Mustang emblem are really well done. They have gotten overwhelmingly positive feedback everywhere she's gone.

But to each his own.

The 20's make the car for me. but I'm obviously biased because I ordered them. Goes great with the car's bigger body style, the 18's are just way too small for my taste.

No, not quite the same the 50th appearance packaged will be a like a Premium with the Premier Trim package (order code 68b)

Ie: Better leather on the seats, perforated leather on the door panels, real stitching on the dash, soft touch surfaces on the upper door panel areas. Non of this comes with the Premium, only the 50th package and the Premier Trim Package get these improvements.

Package. Wheels can be added later while adding all features from 50th package later might not be possible.

Keep in mind the 20s have summer tires, in case that matters.

I believe the 50th anniversary wheels have all season tires, but I haven't confirmed that.

What gaudy-looking chrome are you talking about? The only chrome the 50th Anniversary Package adds is the taillight surrounds, which are barely noticeable.

It kind of annoys me that Ford isn't offering any chrome wheels at all this year -- I'm all about chrome wheels, and it sucks that I'll have to buy aftermarket.

The 50th Anniversary wheels come with Pirelli PZero Nero All Seasons.

Doesn't the 50 Years package come with chrome trim around the side windows as well? I think you can see it here:
