If Scooby Doo was the spokesperson for the Ford Mustang, the end of month sales conference call would go something like this, Ruh-Roh Ford! Why you may ask, well month-to-month sales were down sharply and this is the sixth consecutive month of declining or stagnant sales from its 10K high back in May. On a positive note Mustang sales did increase from November of the previous year but it was nothing to get excited about.
With sales numbers like these expect more incentives, rebates and attractive finance offers to boost sales over the next coming months. Check out the details below.
Sales of the Ford Mustang for November of 2010 were 4,093 compared to 3,627 from November of 2009 showing a 12.8% increase in sales from the previous year. Year to date Mustang sales are 68,264 compared to 60,096 for 2009, which is a 13.6% increase.
Month to Month sales decreased considerably as October 2010 sales were 5,317 compared to November 2010 sales of 4,093 which is a 23% decrease.
Taking a look at the competition the Chevrolet Camaro sold 4,164 and the Dodge Challenger sold just 2,497 units for September.

Memo to Ford
Subject: Increase Mustang Sales
Consider selling as many Boss 302s as there are buyers instead of a limited production run that shuts out buyers. Of course this means select dealers won’t be able to mark up their stock and would have to settle for MSRP.
