twicebitten Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 i went to a ford dealership site and looked up the inventory and on the mustang they have 09 black red stripe and looking at the options they have stripe delete. so i called the internet manager and asked about the car and he told he wasnt sure andthe girl the was in charge of the inventory said it might be in vegasor i think he said new haven . what i wonder is why would you order a red stripe and have the stripes deleted. just sounds really fishy. http://apps.dealerconnection.com/dealers/t...lerPACode=06042 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyDude Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 I think it just has to do with the red appearance package. That is how they all show when that option is ordered. It must have something to do with regular color stripe delete and being replaced by red stripes with the red appearance package. Why they list it that way I have no idea.

ShelbyDude Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 I think the reason for the change in the way they list this for 09 is because they use to send all the cars to another location to have all the stripes put on. Then they started doing some of the cars at the plant and sending some to the other location to where eventually they were going to be doing all the stripes at the plant. The red stripes are still being sent to the other location to have those put on. I think these are the only cars that get sent out now to have stripes put on. So they must be listing the stripe delete because the red stripes are not put on at the plant like all the other cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twicebitten Posted August 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 yeah i went to the same dealership back in 07 to buy a black red stripe . the general manager would not fudge on his price at that time they were asking 56000. for iti offered 54000.he told me no. so i ended up with a white one from another dealer. but not a red stripe. but i remember that the sticker didnt have that info on it just redstripe package. was kinda hoping i have better luck this time around.

I had a 09 black coupe with red appearance package that was posted here for a few weeks. I guess you missed it. But one of our members here bought it. It is being shipped now from the plant. It had a ETA of Aug 5th. The system was still showing status of waiting for shipping from July 24th. So I called to find out what was going on. That is when I was told it was just released from being striped at the other location. They said the red stripe cars are still sent to the other location to have the red stripes put on. They don't show that in the system which was why the status was never updated since the 24th. They said they show released from plant waiting for shipping and the system shows that way until the car is released from having the stripes put on which is why there was no update since the 24th.

Are you wanting a coupe or vert? Black or White? They are only building 300 for 09 which is a total of coupes and verts combined. I don't know how many of them have been ordered as sold units because those orders don't show up right away and won't show up unless they don't get reported sold after several weeks after being delivered to the dealer. So as of now there are only 15 Black Coupes, 4 White coupes, 2 Black verts and 1 White vert showing up as stock orders. These are all red appearance packages. I might be able to hook you up with a dealer getting a White coupe that may sell it for MSRP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXPcustom Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 I saw an 07 GT500 black with red stripe delete at Capitol Ford in San Jose. I dont know if it was the dealership or factory but it was missing the top and side stripes but it had the red stripe option listed on the sticker. It also had the red emblems and everything else just missing the stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
