BadTony Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Out of 3796ish Ford dealers nationwide, what is the breakdown How many of them are ... SVT dealers? Presidents Award Winners? SVT Focus dealers? Select dealers? Contact dealers? dealers who have certified (may fall into one of the above categories)? It'd be cool to see how this roughly breaks down in relation to the 9000 or so production units that are currently planned. It would also be interesting to know how many dealers have opted to either wait til next year to participate, or not participate at all. Which sales region will get the most? Also, how many out of the 9000 are planned to be shipped to Canada or elsewhere? Facts, estimates, opinions..discuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facts, estimates, opinions..discuss The 604 full-line SVT dealers get 2 each, so that accounts for 1,208 GT500's for 2007. There are about 300 SVT-Focus-Only dealers that get 1 each, so there's another 300 or so accounted for in 2007. The 343 President's Award winning dealers from 2005 get 1 each, so 343 more spoken for. And, any dealer that signed up for the 2007-8 GT500 run gets 1, but we don't know how many that is yet. By the way, dealers who did not sign up to sell 2007 GT500's, can NOT sign up for 2008's. It was either 1) sign up for both 2007 & 2008, or 2) wait until 2009 at the earliest to try again. Southern regions always get more Mustangs historically (i.e. California, Texas, and Florida).

I was told a week ago from our Disctrict manager, that they had a number of about 6,000 that would be commited for. For the rest of the 3,000 or so cars,they will go to share of nation and there will be a lottery in Vegas this August for dealers that attend. No word on how many to go to the lottery. bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoothy Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Also, how many out of the 9000 are planned to be shipped to Canada or elsewhere? Canada is getting about 255 IIRC, only being sold through SVT dealers (12-15 cars / dealer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoothy: There are 27 S.V.T dealers in Canada. 12 to each dealer = 324 or 15 to each dealer =405 units. Shelby 001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Oh B Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 The 9,000 figure is for USA only, so any going to Canada is in addition to the 9,000 I'm told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadTony Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 5-0 so if what you are saying is correct, MY07 production #'s for the Shelby should come to 9405 then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the first time they would do that. The Bullitt and Mach totals included cars to Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadTony Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 how about one's headed for margaritaville , south of the border (like I read somewhere else - 150?)? or other exotic places? Are those also a part of the 9000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Oh B Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 I've been told by two different Ford big wigs that there are 9,000 GT500's planned for the USA for 2007. I didn't ask about, nor did either guy elaborate on, GT500's for other countries. SC2004arispe, I know nothing about VIP cars. However, there are so few of them, why worry about them? It's not like we're going to know a final build number with that info anyway. Planned production and actual production are seldom the same. Here's a few recent Mustang examples...... 1999 Mustang GT 35th Anniversary, 6,000 planned, 4,628 built. 2000 Mustang GT Spring Feature, 6,000 planned, 3,901 built. 2001 Mustang GT Bullitt, 6,500 planned, 5,592 built. 2003 Mustang Mach 1, 6,500 planned, 9,652 built with 7,182 more added for 2004.
