**I'll edit this thread as I secure positive figures worldwide.**

Called SVT and the #'s for the '08 are correct. As for the '09 #'s, those are not calculated as of yet (according to the spokesperson on the phone) I know, I know, our '09 Certificates state a total of 712 built!
I'll contact SAI to see what they say.

Official U.S. & Canadian 2009 KR numbers:

Total 2009 GT500KR production = 712
Silver Metallic with vista blue stripes: 278
Ebony Black with satin ebony stripes: 236
Colorado Red with silver stripes: 110
Vista Blue with silver stripes: 88

Steve,

could you tell me also how many black 2009 came with the nav radio?

Thanks, Franz

OK, thought I'd dig this thread up again.  Do we have any new info on these numbers?  Sorry if I missed this somewhere, but a couple questions that come to mind:

• I saw the Canadian breakdown, I believe all Canadian models were 09's but I thought I'd read that there were a total of 141 to Canada...so was the 130 number that frknfast posted correct after all?
  
• I believe there was a 1 of 1 silver with Black Stripes....I think it was an '08...would that one be accounted for in the total silver number?
  
• Do we have any more detail on the number of prototypes built in 08?  How many of the 1011?  Any details about the unique differences for each prototype?
  
• I am curious about options like NAV, etc...but we probably won't have that until the registry is complete.

Any other info to add here?

Thanks and Happy Holidays!

No KR's were shipped by Ford/Shelby outside of North America. Now that doesn't mean that someone didn't purchase a KR from a dealer and then made arrangements to have it shipped to another country. Unfortunately we would have no records on how many owners did this.

My KR for example has been shipped outside of North America. She went overseas to Switzerland.
It's CSM 09KR0291 / black on black.
It seems to be the only KR that drives on the streets in Switzerland. I have heard, that there must be 2 or three other KR's in Switzerlaqnd, but these are collector cars and don't drive on the streets.

So when they say "** These include the cars for overseas sales"  that did not happen? Just the earler number posted that went to Canada were sent out of the US?  I had info that said only 571 units were to stay in the US with the remainder  of the 712 going out of the country so the total number would be 1571 matching the same number of original KR's built. Guess there is a lot of info out there not all of it right.

Thanks!

This is what I have....(also agree no overseas cars to my knowledge)

My shipped my 2009 Red & silver stripes KR from Tasca Ford RI to Jersey, Channel Islands UK. I did this May 2009.

She is CSM # 0441.

I believe there is a 2008 KR also in the UK (Silver with blue tripes) but I am unaware of any other 2009s.

Hope this helps

I know of several cars that were imported to other Countries by their owners. That is something you can't keep track of unless the owners register their cars.

There must be more to this than because there were dozens of GT500KRs that had yellow window stickers, which are meant for export.  I've seen at a least a dozen with addresses bearing DE and CH destinations.

[txcobra]

That is interesting.....would love to know more about this.  Steve, any way to find out?
