Just wondering if anyone is thinking about or planning to coordinate gatherings of SHO's and enthusiasts at their local dealerships when the new Gen IV SHO's start arriving?

We have a couple of dealers up here in Greater Vancouver that were pretty up on SHO's back in the day, and it would be fun to mark the re-introduction.

I'll keep you posted as to how I get on with the dealers...

That's a pretty cool idea.. I already gave the guy my # so I can know as soon as they get them at a dealer near me. I gotta see it in real life.

Too bad trade in on my 95 MTX is a solid 50 bucks or I might get a 2010 SHO.

Interesting idea, Kevin. If they decide to put on something, let me know, as it might be worth a trip to the mainland from over on The Island. I am pretty sure I will eventually get one of the Gen IVs, though not sure when, as my Gen III is still trucking along just fine and not really ready to be put out to pasture just yet.

The dealership will be too busy trying to figure out why that new Taurus has an aftermarket engine and rerouting it to the certified Roush dealers to put up with us...

I have a bad feeling that we're gonna be edumacatin' ford dealers a lot...

Nothing new there!

I will have to go to some of the larger stealerships and see when they will be getting the first shipments in.

I went to a Ford dealer last week and asked if they had any info on the 2010 SHO. Three salesmen stared at me with a very blank look... Oh, brother...

 

[Vnuk1]

Did you have to break it down to them Barney Rubble style on what it was?

Just like the old days!

 

[Kens1992mtxSHO]

That's not a bad idea at all...

 

[GR8WYT]

Thanks for the comments. Are there any other individuals/groups/clubs that have started this process?

My first step was to contact the Ford Of Canada Customer Relations department with a proposal to use club members and cars to promote the upcoming car. We'll see what happens...

 

[Kens1992mtxSHO]

Let me know how this works out and what steps you've taken.

 

[38SHO]

theres a SHO owner by me that works at the Ford dealer, I need to contact him, I figure I could try to take it for a lil spin down my "racetrack" around there

 

[sho_bc]

Hey Kevin, if you get something arranged, let me know! I'd be interested in checking it out as well. Hopefully my schedule will work for me on this if it happens....

 

[GR8WYT]
