New Flyer discontinued the original face in 3rd Quarter 2009. Just like Gillig with its face options, New Flyer would only build buses with the older face at an inflated cost since the were no longer mass producing the original face cap.

Gillig charges an addition $17,000 per bus for the different face and the New Flyer price is not far from that per unit (IIRC around $10,000 per bus) to re-tool the production line to build the older face. The last two properties to receive New Flyers with the original face were SEPTA and CTA in 2009.
