Aren't those orange stickers there to describe the items that are put loose in the car/trunk - thinks like antenna, manuals, front license plate bracket, etc. ?

The white one is on the other rear quarter window.

If the orange/red stickers are on the quarter window of LS models, the Non-street legal front splitter may be in the trunk.
I asked my store if they would remove the discs from the side pipes and they said they were told they could not do that by Ford until after delivery to keep the car compliant. Same for the TracKey. I understand. Who wants to spend $90/HR labor rate to take the discs out when you can do it yourself.

I think those LS splitters are a bit too big to fit in the trunk.

But they might fit in our non-LS versions with the seats folded down

Great pictures Mike and thanks from all of us for doing this. The pictures are nice but the black LS would look better in my garage.

Maybe we should all "march" on AAI like they are doing in WI and demand they release our cars

Like every other thread if we read way to far into these pictures... You have to figure some cars should be on the way. If only 16 are sitting there where are all the rest? a lot more than 16 have been produced to date. Only down side is not seeing any loaded up.

If you use the 4000 total production run and just take out weekends from a full year (without subtracting holidays and shutdowns) they would need to make 16 Boss cars a day. Best we can tell there has been at least 15 full production days = 240 cars. I would think between Shelbys and Bosses can't be that many inside VPC, right?

Good point. I was over at allfordmustangs.com and the guys with 2012 GTs are as worked up as us. Sounds like some of those have hit dealers though. Does the OK to buy go by Mustang package or is it given for the full line?

Don't know, sounds like there is one for the new year but for each specific model, who knows? I have been watching the dealer connection sites and since the ford.com site was updated on the 1st nothing has been added to any inventory. There still are no 12's in any form (GT, V6) sitting on the lots down here (not that I care really it does not bother me in the least that I don't have a car yet I can wait as long as it takes since I know it will arrive when it does and worrying about it does no good since that will change nothing ( :deepbreath: ).

There is a white sticker on an LS (between the black GT and the red Boss in the foreground). So I don't think a red sticker means the accessories are in the car.

The White sticker on the driver's side is pretty much just a bar code sticker identifying the car. The Orange sticker on the passenger side identifies the loose items that need to go into the car.

Is the plant closed or just that Mazda 6's are no longer being built there?
