According to latest informations MY2023 order banks open on October 17th. This would match the Gen 7 reveal in April 23 with launch as MY2024 later. So we could get a full MY2023 S550 with the renamed black accents package.

Only thing that don't add up is that export models S550 will end by end of the year. But pausing export models while US models continue for a while wouldn't be a big surprise and even for the 18 refresh there was quite a gap before export models continued
I am still skeptical of that April 2023 reveal, because although things can change, media said the same stuff about the S550 and boy were they wrong. December 6th had no significance to Ford and yet they chose it anyway as a reveal date in 2013.

2010 Mustang was revealed in September 2008, despite the 45th anniversary coming up. Yet Ford also stupidly called the 2009s 45th anniversary cars, even though they were all sold and produced in 2008. Mustang production beginning March 9, 1964 negates that. Ford got the 50th anniversary right at least, after years of cheating with truly 39th and 44th anniversary cars.

I hope there is no 60th anniversary until 2025MY and midway through the 2024 model year.

but how out of date is your 'internal' information? I guess MY designations are just as much fiction as Hogwarts' incantations, but to call a March/April '23 car a MY24 is stretching the truth/credibility even more than salt-water toffee.

If March '23 is J1 then obviously the orderbooks have to be opened by Oct/Nov'ish which means a reveal no later than Aug.

I guess I'll order my Mach 1 late July?
Outdated? My information is from April 2022, so that's as good as it gets for now. I really do hope someone else can back it up, because Ford is a large organization.

As for your theory, well Ford has done this before, notably in fact right here. I am often annoyed by pre-July "next year" cars myself, but Ford pioneered this themselves clearly. The March 6, 2023 date might be very deliberate.

March 9, 1964

Just 18 months after they reached this point in September 1962.

Easily could've given themselves a full 2 years and launched production in September 1964 for October 1964 street date and not April 17, 1964 release.

Ford has done plenty of "next year" new models or redesigns early in a new calendar year, mostly when development runs later than planned or for ultra competitive reasons. Such as the 1997 F-150 in January 1996 and 2008 Super Duty in January 2007. 2011 Super Duty in early 2010 or 2012 Ford Focus in early 2011.

This is nothing out of the ordinary, even if I respect intros like the 2009/2015/2021 F-150 being December and the Bronco being a 2021 model in 2021.

In terms of reveal date preceding order books opening, I wouldn't count on it too much. Easily could cut it close to orders opening up. Now that's my only speculation here.

I'm not doubting you or your source, but one of those pictures is most definitely NOT from March 9, 1964. The top picture clearly shows 1966 models in QC.

Maybe we are reading much into past reveal history by Ford. This is the internet age with new marketing tools and Ford can do what ever they wish as far as reveal date or/and production date.

Look at the customers waiting for F150-EV and new Broncos given the current supply chain and chip issues. If you want these new products you will have to wait and Ford will make sure you stay waiting until they can deliver by little incentives each month for the waiting orders.

They have the customer hooked as there is minimal or no competition for those products. The Mach 1 and GT500 products show that price is no object if high demand is there! By limiting production you create demand for the product and hold the price high. The CEO knows all the tricks.

The "let-the-people-name-it" black-out package. Meh. I thought they had a black-out package already.

So yesterday was the last day on which people could hand in name suggestions. When do we get the results or more importantly when will this nonsense be on sale?

MY23 S550 starting this fall?

I still hope that they will announce the name for the S650 black package or at least show a blacked out S650... Just give us anything S650 related FORD! please...

For real, that vid was my reaction when they revealed all this hype was just for another blacked out package on the s550.

I'm realu sorry about that, I might have mixed up the original March 1964 photos or some silly journalist probably just used them as a substitute of some sort and I took the bait.

I saw 1966 for certain somewhere via reverse image search and almost hesitated, but it wasn't labeled for these set. Thank you.

No offense meant, but I hope they never put an Eco V6 in a Mustang. You could always build your own though!

So if given the choice of a real Mustang with a turbo 6 vs. no Mustang at all?
Easy. I would NEVER buy a mustang that's not a V8. I don't care how many horsepowers it has.

I'll be out when that happens. I MIGHT be open to an Auto - but only cause I'm old now - and they have teh A-10.

Yes, no V8, no Mustang. 2018 was the first Mustang that I really wanted. I will not buy a Mustang without a thumping V8. Zero interest. Not with a V6EB, not with a 1000HP AWD electric drivetrain.
