SVTOA Rekindles Ties to SVT and Ford Racing

Happy New Year!

Effective January 1, 2006, operation of the Ford Special Vehicle Team Owners
Association has been transferred to the Ford SVT Marketing team, under the
direction of the Ford Racing Technology group. What this means is that, as the
new roles and responsibilities of the Ford Special Vehicle Team are identified
and defined in the coming months, the SVTOA will become more closely aligned
with Ford SVT, Ford Racing and Ford Racing Performance Parts.

SVT actually conceived, founded and launched the SVTOA more than six years ago,
and is excited about the opportunity to be again working hand-in-hand with one
of its most loyal owner groups. While Ford Racing and SVT work to establish
their new missions among Ford performance enthusiasts, they'll be watching the
SVTOA Message Board to read your input on how you think the SVTOA can be
improved to build a more viable relationship between Ford Motor Company and its
most valuable customers.

Please visit the SVTOA Message Forums at http://www.svtownersassociation.com/...rums/index.php

Stay tuned to www.svtoa.com, as well as www.svt.ford.com and www.
fordracingparts.com, for news and information on this exciting new era for Ford
performance as we draw closer to the introduction of the 2007 Ford Shelby
GT500.

Any type of service or warranty related questions and/or inquiries should be
directed to your local SVT-certified Ford dealer. In the event that you do not
know who your local SVT-certified Ford dealer is, you can conduct a location
search for a dealer in your area at www.svt.ford.com.

On behalf of Ford Special Vehicle Team and SVTOA, we wish you and yours a
joyous and prosperous 2006!

 

So what ever happen to that "special deal" if you leased an '04 Cobra? Are those people still going to get special considerations when the GT500 comes out?

 

Yes the powerlease is still in effect and if they want to pay msrp+markup more power to them.

Powerlease cars don't count in the dealers allotment. They are extra cars to the dealer only for the powerlease customer. So, in other words, if the customer does not want the car, the dealer doesn't get it. This gives the powerlease holder the ultimate power to bargain. If I had one, the car would be bought at Invoice. "Mr. Dealer, I'll let you sell me the car at invoice. If not, I'll take my powerlease certificate elsewhere."

 

Moving to general Mustang Discussion as it address's all year SVT's.
