I received a letter today from Ford
 
In 2011 , there were 21,299 Mustang GT's made, 292 were Yellow Blaze.
In 2012, there were 17,487 Mustang GT's made so far, 503 were Yellow Blaze.

The color will not be available in 2013.

Wow I thought it would have been more than that. It looks like less than 1000 will be made. Thanks for the info.

I was looking through some dealers inventory the other day just to see what was out there, and saw a '12 YB GT/CS with glass roof. I'd say that would probably be a pretty rare combo if they've only made 500 total so far this year.

Can I remind you guys that rare in this case means nobody wanted it?

I was considering the Boss, my choise was YB. It's an excellent mix with the black accents and wheels.

Well, for 2011, it wash't even in the color guide for the Mustang. Ford decided to make some and ship them out. It's a 12 color ..and i for one love the color.

11SHELBYGT500 10/24/11 06:38 PM

Yeah, I like the color too, but don't like it because you think it's rare.

bud4au01 10/24/11 07:31 PM

But it is rare....i have only seen 3 like it in 7 months. And I wanted one after I saw one of those. It had nothing to do with being a rare color. To me, that is a bonus .

I've never seen a Yellow Blaze on the road ... when they first came out a saw a YB V6 in a local dealers lot that I stopped to look at... I have seen more Sunset Golds (1 V6 and another GT locally) than Yellow Blazes. Ford made 415 Sunset Gold GT's.

Exactly 250 Bosses like that, and exactly 1 with the white stripes. I know that the 1 was ordered by accident, and that the combo appeared in the Canadian Order Guide, but not in the sales literature.

I have a 2012 yellow base premium gt.. its a decent option car with heated seats and 3.73s..im glad the color is rare and lets face it, its tuff looking. i just got my 3d carbon 500 spoiler and i also got the dg window scoops, on my 2009 i used shr louvers but i just didnt have heart to cut up my 2012
hey are you guys painting the gurney flaps black(if so what color black)or should i just do whole spoiler in yellow blaze ?

kylerohde 11/7/11 08:36 PM

I loved the old Chrome Yellow and the later Screaming Yellow, but really didn't like the Sunset Gold or the more egg yolk yellow Ford made for a few years. Yellow Blaze is pretty great too, but the lady did not like yellow at all so I went with Race Red - she let me get the Stang I wanted so I figured compromising on color wasn't so bad ;)

What was the total build numbers for YB?
How about build numbers for YB California Special/

See now that looks good to me and it is rare also. People get stuck on a color and that is the only color they will buy. Like myself with the LL lots of people hate the color but for some its the only color they will buy. Maybe down the road it will be worth a few bucks more because of its rarity.
