DEARBORN - With the holiday shopping season upon us, we're faced with the annual challenge of what gift to get for our favorite car guy (or gal) who seems to already have everything. Beyond the Cool Stuff being offered by the Ford Performance Info Center (800-FORD-788), you'll never go wrong buying the car person in your life a full year's membership in a Ford vehicle club. Owning a performance Ford goes well beyond just driving one – there's a whole world of new friends, information and activities that await those who join a Ford enthusiast organization. And a membership in one or more of them makes a GREAT gift that will be appreciated the whole year through!

No matter what kind of classic or collectible Ford you might own on be interested in, there’s a club out there dedicated to it! Check out our enthusiast Clubs and Groups page on FordPerformance.com for info on some of the enthusiast organizations that we support and promote. You can also take a look at our Friends page for a listing of other Ford vehicle enthusiast communities you can find online. Membership in longstanding, established clubs usually costs around $50 a year and usually pays for itself the very first time you get advice from members or attend an event. And the friends you make last a lifetime. So find a club and sign up an enthusiast you know for a year full of Ford vehicle fun! Whichever club membership you choose, you'll be giving much more than just a gift – you'll be offering a whole Ford enthusiast lifestyle!

One of the hottest things going in the world of Ford Performance right now is the sixth-generation 2015-18 Mustang known by its engineering designation, the “S550.” So fans of Ford’s current pony car are sure to be interested in owning the book, “Mustang 2015 – The New Generation.” If you have a Ford Performance fan on your shopping list this holiday season, they’d love to add this special book to their memorabilia collection. It reveals the inside story of how Ford Motor Company had recreated its iconic pony car for 2015 and beyond. Mustang 2015 is a wonderfully illustrated, 192-page hardbound that includes previously undisclosed perspective on historical Mustang development plus exclusive interviews and info from Team Mustang, Ford executives, retirees, dealers, as well as Mustang owners and enthusiasts! Although the book’s initial print run has sold out, they are in stock and available right now below list price on www.FordShowParts.com.

But wait, there’s more: If you or someone you know also likes the Mustang Boss 302, Mustang GT "California Special," Ford GT supercar, Fox Body Mustang, any 1993-2003 SVT vehicle, or the Ford Thunderbird, did you know that Ford Performance has special, out-of-print enthusiast books on each of those?
