Awesome color for the last of the 2020s.

From the How it's Made show I watch, it looks like the end of the production line where they put the car on a dyno and start it up to check if it's all good. Of course that was not at a Ford plant, but looks similar to that last step.

5000 was the initial rough estimate... then Covid and the plant shutdown happened... then the 2020 production run was extended and we ended up with 5823.

Wow 5000+ that's quite a lot of them. How people still pay adm on these is beyond me.
When you compare it to the US population, 331,000,000, 5,878 cars doesn't look like a lot.

That's one car per 56,311.67 people.

Hahaha, well, yeah, but there's ~220M licensed drivers - and in 2019, ~17M new cars sold - then look at the breakdown of people's income, vehicle need, desire, etc., and in the much smaller demographic where there is a reasonably viable buyer, then look at the alternatives available from BMW, Porsche, Audi, etc.

I wonder what the "real" buyer pool looks like after all those other factors are considered.

It is befitting that the last 2020GT 500 wears the pristine white that graced the best looking Mustangs of all time. I know...the Wimbleton white versus Oxford white argument...but the average person will just see one hell of Sleeper Stang.

And...it would look great next to Rumbles, the Oxford White Vert!
