I purchased a new 2011 GT with a Jan 2011 (01/11) build date. I think the 2012s started production in Feb 2011.

Do you think having a car built this late in the model year production cycle is positive/negative or neither?

I would think on the positive side - They may have addressed some of the earlier production kinks. Also, It had not been sitting on the lot for a long time.

Any opinions about other positives or possible negatives to this?

Thanks for any feedback.

 

You already addressed the positive. No negs come to mind.

 

Thanks SCCAGT - No big deal. I was just wondering if anyone had considered this or had personal insight/experience. I just usually look at the build date of cars because TSBs sometimes refer to a specific range of build dates.

btw - No problems so far after 1500 miles except some suspension creaking noise when going over bumps that may or may not be normal.

 

only possible negative I can think of is the resale value of the car...2011 vs 2012 but other then that....I dont think there are any negatives...
