I didn't actually buy the car, but in order to get the "FIFTY" on the side of the car you must have the 50th anniversary package, which is only available on the 2LT($2600) and the 2SS($1800) models. I believe that all of the 2017s have the "FIFTY" on the steering wheel though.

These are one option/mod I am considering for a future install. Love the look even though the newer versions are not as "deep" as the originals.
