Overview

Production Breakout

Model / Body Style Units Type
Shelby GT500 Disputed: 4,905 Special edition
Boss 302 Disputed: 3,250 / 3,526 / 3,553 Special edition
Boss 302 Laguna Seca Disputed: 750 / 747 / 765 Special edition

The 84,705 secondary report leads only because it is the only positive full-line total located, not because a Ford ledger or independent confirmation has been found. MustangSpecs instead says it could not find a total. The legacy 63,726-plus-20,979 arithmetic matches 84,705 but is not independent evidence, so the inherited split is not published as body-style rows.

Why published totals differ

Reported: 84,705 Muscle Car Club Muscle Car Club reported 2013 Mustang production total; market, population, and inclusion rules are not stated. No methodology or underlying Ford ledger is provided.
Not publicly published MustangSpecs 2013 production guide MustangSpecs' 2013 production-research result. MustangSpecs says it could not find 2013 production data and displays Units Produced as N/A.
Disputed: 84,705 MustangCarFacts July 2026 committed automated output Transparent arithmetic from the legacy automated 2013 coupe and convertible rows, which recorded no external source. 63,726 coupes plus 20,979 convertibles equals 84,705. This is project provenance, not independent confirmation of Muscle Car Club.
