i got an fast answer yesterday from the dealer ship: 
  
  
there you go: 
  
  
  
I can't tell who is sending your customer this information but they 
just don't know what they're talking about. Ford started releasing 
preliminary Order Guides for 2013 Edge in October 2011 and have since sent 
two complete revisions. It's true we will not provide the customer a copy 
because they are Ford's proprietary documents, but the 2013 specifications 
you see in Milquote are direct from the manufacturer. There may always 
changes at the start of production but the guides are no longer marked 
"Draft". With Ford, that means they are usually very reliable. 
  
The web site they linked is garbage, one of many useless sites that pop up 
trying to draw page views with no real content and no connection with the 
manufacturer. It also appears to be written by someone for whom English is a 
third language: 
"2013 Ford Edge, Ford's new 2.0-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost engine is 
equipped with. This is only the updated 2011 Ford Edge seems to be the 
limit." 
  
Regarding our pricing, there is nothing premature. We've evaluated the Order 
Guides, made adjustments to every package and option price based on 
equipment changes, and factored in the Estimated Uplift to factor in normal 
model year price increases. That price is 100% guaranteed and if the 
eventual total selling price is less the customer will be refunded the 
difference. 
  
The schedule I have calls for Edge production to start February 2012. I'm 
not the expert on leadtimes and delivery schedules but I've copied Harley 
Spinks in Technical Services to confirm our EDD.
