[QUOTE="Madlock, post: 13047256, member: 111289"] Here's some more '14 production data so far based upon updated information from the almost-1,900 cars made or scheduled so far. There's been a $150 price hike to each model's base price, by the way. About 83% are Coupes, 17% are Convertibles. Color mix remains consistent. "Take" rates on each option for the Coupe and Convertible respectively are, [LIST] [*]SVTPP - 91% and 89% [*]SVTTP - 73% and N/A (80% of all Coupes with SVTPP) [*]Electronics Package - 79% and 85% [*]Glass Roof - 13% and N/A [*]Recaro Seats - 73% and 64% [*]Shaker Sub - 62% and 66% [*]WeatherShield Cover - 67% and 71% [/LIST] Ordering Oddities of the Day [LIST] [*]Of cars with the SVTPP and SVTTP (which one would expect for cars owners expect to AT LEAST occasionally drive in anger, about 19% don't ALSO have Recaro Seats. [*]Of the 929 cars with the SVTPP, SVTTP AND Recaro Seats (as track-ready as a the car can be), 677 (about 73%) ALSO toss the extra weight of the Shaker Sub in the trunk. [/LIST] 185 Coupes and 87 Convertibles have been made for Canada (272 total) 17 Coupes have been made for Export outside the U.S. & Canada and no Convertibles (so far). 3 Coupes and 3 Convertibles were built as demo mules (very low numbers relative to prior years), of which one Coupe was later assigned a retail value (usually required for donation). The average sticker price of Coupes and Convertibles in the U.S. and Canada respectively are: $65,229 and $67,593, $71,032 and $73,942 The total SRP for U.S. and Canadian Coupes and Convertibles respectively for the almost-1,9000 cars made so far are $103,407,695 and $19,573,869 CAD (or $19,403,126 USD), totaling $122,821,821 USD. Extrapolating the <1,900 to 5,000 units with the assumption that the remainder of the year will be consistent with 2014 so far, GT500 will gross about $323.2M (in USD) in U.S. & Canada sales. The aforementioned is factual. The following is purely my own speculation based upon those facts. My own purely theoretical ballpark of the gross profit GT500 will yield from retail sales is about $90-100M. I'd take a wild guess, given that GT500 is essentially never incentivized, that Ford will NET $20-30M in after-tax net profit from the whole shebang which ultimately gets reinvested or distributed to shareholders (and taxed AGAIN as personal income). Just to give things a visual perspective, he's the Color and Stripe distribution of the Coupes scheduled so far: [IMG]https://domcza.blu.livefilestore.com/y2p9LrkynCmECPeUVnj_MrBKPhPQm7cBJJHTRJE563ffj0IafWE_SBhd8oM4x6xI5EoK64FA5refKAIkmkac6ZHRfSMHWRQv_7F1e_lm6cycjobZu-Wp9K9DibNL8MixlvC/Coupe%20Color%20Distribution%20-%201553.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
