Production Sequencing

Question - I have a 2015 GT350. It's #42 with a Tech Package. I've read somewhere that #1 - #37 are GT350R's. Is this true? If so, are #38 - #137 split between the Tech Package and Track Package? Just curious to know.

Rob, I don't know anything about what you're asking. Congrats on the '15, that's what I wanted but my dealer didn't have an allocation. Welcome to the forum, good luck on finding your answers.

Thanks Tankman.

I will try to answer your question. You are correct on the first 37 being "R"s. 38 to 137 are "Street" cars. there is no particular rhyme or reason on the build at that point (after 37), but the 100 "900 A" builds were split 50/50 between track & tech. I show your VIN as 1FA6P8JZ2F5520042 as a Magnetic Gray with Blue / black stripes. Is that correct? Your car is one of twelve 900A cars with that color, But I am missing 2 cars colors.

Thanks for the clarification. I need to check the VIN, but the color is traditional Oxford white with blue stripes.

Please check VIN, and if you have the window sticker handy, is the "Blend" # on the top center of the sticker 9012?TX car?

Shelby6T5 - Sorry my bad, my Chassis is #82 (either typo or wishful thinking?). VIN is #1FA6P8JZ3F5520082. Number on top center of window sticker is #F5 520082 (is this the Blend?). Sorry about the confusion, but I really appreciate your input about #01 - #37 being the GT350R's and #38 - #137 being split 50/50 between the GT350's with Tech Package or Track Package.

That makes more sense! At the top of your window sticker you should see a "7344". Your car was built with a batch of 30 GT350s on 7-21-15.

I read (and re-read) the window sticker looking for the number "7344", but no luck in finding it. If I knew how, I would forward you a pic. None the less, thank you for the great information.

Shelby6T5, Good work, you seem to have your finger on the production side of things. I have a question on my 2016 but the numbers may not be available yet.
My VIN is G5522620 and Chassis is 2346, Track pack' Comp Orange without strips or roof. I have found one other one out there and there may be a total of four plain orange cars made. can you confirm this and shed some light on my build date.

Thx, Jay...

I was told that the '15 production batch ( Nov - Dec) had the chassis# coinsiding w the vin# production serial (last 5/6 digits); however, the '16 chassis # is not the same as the vin# production sequence ... the '16 GT350 model sequence for GT350s have a Chassis # starting with the letter GXXXX and the "R" starts with GRXXX. Is this the case? I have a copy of Ford's 2016 production schedule (projected) for each allocation. They will vary according to dealer order specs. Final production numbers subject to the ongoing pace of sales. The projected #1 color is Oxford White (YZ)and Shadow Black (G1) #2 ...about 16/11% respectively of the total projected production. Triple Yellow Tri-Coat (H3) is the rarest at 3%. Your Competition Orange (CY) is projected at 3.5%!! (50 units w track option (900A/67S) .... Enjoy!
