Test Cars being released at sale

Looks like a bunch of test cars just got released.. Probably MP cars due to the higher VIN as compared to PP0001 that was 5199915, and PP0005 that is 5199916

No damage on these cars. Ratings of 4.5-5.0 on a scale to 5.0

5199943 23k test car Boss 302 hood chips
5199947 13k test car laguna Seca LR tire worn
5199968 2k test car Boss 302 4.8 rating but no damage given
5199980 4k test car laguna Seca hood chips
5199984 4k miles ARS/MIS UNIT ( not sure what that means ) 5.0 extra clean rating

There are no pics of the number plates for any of these, and this does not include PP0001 Laguna Seca going through with FRAME DAMAGE

43 and 47 are cars that were likely part of the demo fleet for the press. 68, 80, and 84 are internal test cars, with 84 being sent to Ford's "Quality Test Fleet". this means that 84 may well have received special attention at the factory to ensure it was built to the highest standards.

The 84 car looks to have a dealer sticker on the rear bumper.

Just arrived at auction awaiting sale in the next few days. hard to say where they end up at, but as a reference for potential buyers on this forum, I can access the condition report that is given , so you can stay away from big damage cars. These all look very good.

They are asking WAAAAAYYYY too much. $41900 "on sale".

It is a bit rough IMHO for a car at that price level but I didn't go over it with a fine tooth comb. It's mostly handling scuffs, bent exhaust hanger. Missing the baffles. But I might be way off too.
