The Mustang II returned in 1975 with a few changes. The hood was longer and the engine compartment changed to allow the large 5.0L V8 engine to fit. This engine used up gas quickly, so quickly that the optional 3.5 gallon auxiliary gas tank came standard with the 5.0L V8 engine. The grille was larger with an egg-crate type mesh that was nearly flush with the grille opening. All V8's came with an automatic transmission while the V6's where manually shifted. The Ghia optioned coupe came with a half vinyl roof, rear side opera windows, full length body side tape stripes, stand-up hood ornament, media velour cloth seats, and center console. Also available was a Luxury Interior Group which was a subset of the Ghia options and similar to those offered in the 1974 Ghia package. A manually operated silver glass moonroof and a regular manual sunroof was also available. The popular 1974 Rallye package was also available for the 2.8L V6 or 5.0L V8. New cast aluminum spoked wheels were available along with the popular styled steel and forged aluminum wheels.
