Question on delivery
Hi, I'm a newbee. Just placed my order for a Boss in white with the two options at MSRP, in the Bay Area.
Any news on which quarter January orders will be built.
Thanks

Unfortunately, it doesn't matter when you put in your order, it matters when your dealer has his allocation. Only he can tell you which quarter he has his Boss allocations in.

Thanks, that was helpful. My dealer had three allocations. I got their second one. I believe it was a third quarter build which sounded strange to me. Now I understand.

If there was an allocation shouldn't there be a specific amount that will be built? When will Ford announce the production numbers they expect to build? Inquiring minds (and future owners) want to know. I still think the 3,500/500 each of the two year sounds about right and closely follows the total production for the 1969/1970 cars.

Thanks. I would think the X (500?) number for LS would remain static and maybe they'd allow more Boss cars to be built if demand is there. I wonder if demand will be greater in the second year as word gets out. Of course it's not like Ford has been keeping this a secret. I also wonder if they will even sell 4,000 a year with people focusing on economy and alternative fuel vehicles with gas prices moving up. This car appears to the enthusiast for sure buy how many people will be shopping for a new car and buy one?

Just like the GT500, after the initial rush is over you will see dealers having to budge off of MSRP and they could possibly be even available on A- or X-Plan, just like the GT500. They will sell them all, just not necessarily at MSRP or with an ADM.

also a white one in the bay area
I'm in Los Gatos, ordered from Ford Store Morgan Hill. I'm getting my white car in the first quarter.
OP: where are you and where'd you order from?

They changed the color to White and sold it to me at MSRP..... couldn't be happier. Better than waiting 6 months or more!

Yes, turns out there are over 40 Ford dealers in the Greater Bay Area. I just picked up the phone and called until I got 1qtr@MSRP. I met my goal after only a half a dozen calls. I stayed away from large dealerships, assuming small ones don't sell too many $45k Mustangs.....it worked. I also only asked for the General Sales Manager.

You guys a lucky. I can't get my dealer to find out the build date yet, all i can get out of them is the estimate that it should be built in the second quarter and they think it will be early may. I would like a more solid dates the waiting and agony can be even worse, ha ha.
Congrats on the date and most importantly the new Boss.

Sorry if I got a little off subject there, but I've been struggling to find a MSRP. I'll find one eventually.
