Ahh ok. I did not know it was treated like a Shelby.
A few of the Ford performance vehicles are sold at all dealerships.
but some of the specialty stuff, the dealers have to pay extra to be dealer for products.
Same as Roush, Fairly & Stevens here had it, not sure if they still do or not.
MacPhee Ford did not. Macphee Ford is the only Ford Performance Dealer in the maritimes.
They also get perks, like the only Steve McQueen Edition bullitt went to MacPhee's
The 50th anniversary special Addition Mustang, which only a few came to Canada.
MacPhee got, The owner took that, turned out to be not so special. Over priced for nothing more than badging.
Every dealer got 1 Focus RS, MacPhee got a bunch, etc, etc.
They all could sell the Bullitt.
They used to be called SVT dealers, but Now Ford has made it global,
So called Ford Performance, even that had its issues.
As some Dealers at spent upwards of 50k building special showrooms and
signage with SVT badging the year before the switch, Ford ended up giving them a 5 year grace period to switch.
Keep the Peace, bit money involved to have the rights to sell this stuff.
I know MacPhee recently looked at Roush and said no because they had to spend 100k in parts.
Hmmm maybe should be saying this in Members only area lol, not sure this public lol.
Hopefully that gives a little insight as to how some of it works.
Even with that lots I don't know,
