Mine is the 9th Comp Orange 2012 Boss? UPDATE mystery solved!

This site may earn a commission from merchant affiliate links, including eBay, Amazon, and others.

So March 23rd, I traded in my 2005 Honda Civic Si and my 2001 Honda S2000 in on a 2012 Competition Orange Boss 302 #2679.

Well I got my owner's kit today and according to the included certificate of authenticity, mine was build on 11/16/2011 and it was the 9 build int Competition Orange.

Nearly every Boss 302 I've seen in the press is Comp Orange, how can it be mine is the 9th one built?

UPDATE

I just got of the phone with ford, it seems my CA was in error (he said one or two were incorrect) and I shall be getting a new CA. I think he said my was number 962 in comp orange.

Very easily. It was the 9th one, to be built. lol.

Congrats on the purchase! I also used to be into Sport Compact cars (still have a few in my collection), but the Boss 302 has me addicted currently.
 
Re: Mine is the 9th Comp Orange 2012 Boss?

From what you say I agree - something isn't right. There were certainly many more 2012 CO cars built than 9 when yours was built. Can you post a pic of your certificate?

I think they forgot two 9's. LOL It's probably 999. Contact Ford Racing and have them correct it.
 
Re: Mine is the 9th Comp Orange 2012 Boss?

I would say they forgot a few numbers! My car is #67 and the 18th one in comp orange. My was built in the first week of production back in Feb of 2011.
 
Re: Mine is the 9th Comp Orange 2012 Boss?

Something isn't right...my CO Boss was built 2/23/11, is #106 of the 2012 production run and number 36 manufactured in Competition Orange.

Welcome to the club Number23, I came from an 06 Evo and various poorly running Euro cars

I say you sue Ford for their HUGE mistake and use the money to buy 5 Bosses!
