Nice, the 2013 restyle looks like it was the right way to go, hopefully Ford can keep the pace up!

 

Not sure why these numbers would indicate the 2013 Restyle was the right way to go? If anything it shows heavy rebates on 12's moved cars. The 2013s have just started hitting lots in the last two weeks. There hasn't been that many to sell yet. Let's see how these numbers fair over the next couple months and 12 inventory clears out.

 

Good point, no doubt the incentives will have helped shift the last of the '12.........although we've seen plenty of evidence on here that the '13s appear to be selling well (lots of proud new owners and those still awaiting delivery)


What will be interesting is how next year's (MY '14) get on. Unless Ford releases a sneak of the '15, many may choose to hold out until the all new car is revealed. If they don't like what they see, they can scoop up one of the remaining '14s at a good price.

 

I wonder if the new mustang commercial has stimulated sales. A little artsy for me, but I my wife loves it.

 

That commercial has grown on me. I couldnt hear the line at the end about your inner Mustang the first two times I saw it. They blatantly shot for a wide audience but I too wonder if they hit their mark.

 

In my area of North Carolina it looks like at least 20% of the Camaros are back on the pre-owned lot within 6 - 8 months after they are sold. I'm not sure why, but after looking at one before we bought the Mustang I can guess.

 

I can tell you the commercial struck a chord with my wife. She saw the Shelby at the end of the commercial, said, "ok, now that's cool. That car looks so mean in black." She's never before expressed any feelings for any vehicle outside of a Jeep and a 1st generation Mustang.

 

I love the new commercial. I guess i get it.
