Will they be skipping 2023 for the Mustang?
I heard in the presentation the S650 will be available summer of 2023.

Yeah once the calendar flips to a new year they canāt call anything produced after that the prior year. Thatās mostly why manufacturers start producing the next model year in fall the prior year (thereās probably some sales and logistics reasons too).I thought skipping 23 and just continuing 22 might be a possibility too but another poster pointed out that it isnāt legally possible.
But unless 24 prices somehow leak out and show a massive price increase it will be interesting to see what they do to move the 23s out. I think it could take some creative measures, given all the 24 hoopla only one day after introduction. 24s clearly have all the buzz and that isnāt likely to change!
Yeah I suppose the VIN cannot indicate an earlier year model than the actual year of production but as you point out the converse is just fine. Next yearās MY VIN cars have been produced in the fall of the current calendar year since time began.Yeah once the calendar flips to a new year they canāt call anything produced after that the prior year.

I thought that the ā23 MY was always planned to be a short run?I would say that if anyone wants the last MY of the s550, donāt wait because all indications are it will be a short run. From what I saw last night, they are targeting first deliveries of the s650 for summer 2023.
Yeah Iād heard different thoughts on timing. Some people thought theyād wait and release it for the 60th anniversary and some thought early release in ā23. I initially thought theyād wait for the 60th but after they announced the date of the unveiling I changed course. Thereās no way they were going to wait over a year after the reveal. Iām glad my ā22 is on the way and will be interesting to see if thereās s550 and s650 overlap next yearI thought that the ā23 MY was always planned to be a short run?
In any event, if 2024 deliveries do start in the summer of ā23 it wouldnāt be shocking to see ordered ā23 deliveries finishing up even after ā24s were being delivered.
Itās gonna be a fun time to watch from afar as long as one doesnāt have a dog in the fight.
I think youāre gonna really like the ā22.Yeah Iād heard different thoughts on timing. Some people thought theyād wait and release it for the 60th anniversary and some thought early release in ā23.

Ford is not going to do what Chevy did to Corvette in 83. No 83 Corvettes built. Missed opportunity, since that was their 30th anniversary too.Will they be skipping 2023 for the Mustang?

70 1/2 Z-28 was a good solution IMO.Ford is not going to do what Chevy did to Corvette in 83. No 83 Corvettes built. Missed opportunity, since that was their 30th anniversary too.
I agree FT. Whether compliant with VIN requirements or not, they donāt NEED a 2023 MY Mustang. That is assuming of course thereās nothing new to see here and itās just a continuation of the 22s. And given they donāt want to step on the all-new 24s I think thatās likely.70 1/2 Z-28 was a good solution IMO.
No need though. The gen 7 is not ready yet, so even a 6 month production of 2023's makes sense.I agree FT. Whether compliant with VIN requirements or not, they donāt NEED a 2023 MY Mustang.

Maybe they could just work overtime building 22s up to 12/31 and sell them as 22s as long as they lasted into 2023.
THe order desk is already closed on MY23.No need though. The gen 7 is not ready yet, so even a 6 month production of 2023's makes sense.
you know there are dates on these posts rightTHe order desk is already closed on MY23.
