Cross-Generation Dilemma
I really hope they begin releasing some factual information on the 2015 Mustangs soon. I'm trying to decide on either the 2014 or 2015 but would like to order the 2014 (if so decided) rather than looking through inventories. I really don't have any issues with either the SRA or the IRS. I was hoping the 2014 would be the 50th Anniversary, but it's looking more like that moniker may go to the 2015.
Anyone with any insights?
Thanks!

You should be able to special order a 2014 until fairly late 2013. By then there ought to be more info out on the 2015, so you can make a more informed decision.

The way I read it is that 2014 1/2 will be the current outgoing style's very last show.
The redesign is scheduled for MY 2015 which will be the 51st year of mustang.

I just hope the 2014 1/2 Anniversary Stang doesn't look anything like this:
And pays the appropriate type of homage, like this:
I know they're coming out with a black appearance package for 2014 so hopefully there will be some sort of anniversary badging on it.

Hi guys,
2014MY order banks are open now, but you won’t get the pricing yet. Also, they won’t build until the middle of first quarter 2013. The 2014 ½ will be the 50th Anniversary edition. It will be added to production for a limited run sometime during the year.
Please keep in contact with your dealer and once you decide and place your order, send me your order number and dealer info so I can track it for you.
Have a good one!
Andrea

That's one more confirmed new information I've seen thus far -- the 2014 1/2 being the 50th Anniv. That's what some of us were speculating.
Also, the other speculation is that the 2014 1/2 will be the MY 2015 (not the MY 2014) which will be introduced on the 50th anniversary of the Mustang.
Now, I just need to see what the new model will look like.
Thanks, again, Andrea!

Any particular reason why? 
My take? With the all new S550 unlikely to be on sale before April 2014, that makes the '14 model year a long one (usually, we'd expect to the '15 to order November 2013) so that extra 6 months would make sense for a 2014.5MY.......although I wouldn't hold out for much more than a sticker job, as Ford resources will be busy getting S550 ready for launch.
Or..............perhaps the '14.5 will be more than a sticker job.....perhaps we'll get that Boss motor and suspension in a subtle Anniversary package

Your not taking into consideration the down time for retooling for both the Fusion, in 2013 and the new 2015 Mustangs in 2014.

I like where your head's at. I sure hope they do some 2014.5 anniversary special edition. Especially for me because my 2014 is not going to be my daily driver so a little extra rareity could help me in the long run.

Whilst NY would be nice from a historical perspective (given Mustang was launched at the World Fair in NY), that seems a little late...........unless Ford expect people to order S550 sight unseen, which I guess is possible.
So many options.............so many possibilities
