My car showed up on Cotus today, "in order processing." I ordered on 8/17, priority code 10, retail.

122888. Highest I've seen so far.
Hopefully, my dealer will call me and tell me my car is in Order processing! Does my Lucky DanceI am a priority code 10 as well. But I hear that has nothing to do with the factory though :(

I have a 17 Camaro and am very interested in the 2018 Mustang, but I must say that Ford screwed the pooch on this one. This is nothing in terms of the actual car, but the fact that virtually nothing will be available this year. I also don't understand why there has not been any mule or demo cars made available for reviews. You can't find anything on Youtube.

I think they are worrying about getting the dealers trained. I've seen a lot of dealers say they had training for the new Mustang. Which makes sense this car has a lot new to it and they want to make sure they know everything about it.

I don't think there are enough changes to the refresh to justify being 3 months late. The problem I see will be the timing on the Camaro refresh for 2019. If they are made available in August of next year, it's reducing the exposure on the better performing Mustang before the "possibly" improved Camaro is released. These cars should be hitting the dealership floors hard, but it doesn't sound like much of that will happen until Thanksgiving.

They are on government hold till the 30th. So I'm hoping once that's done they'll start producing these cars fast! I was hoping to get mine before Christmas. But somehow I don't think that'll happen :(.

would you mind elaborating a bit about this comment? where did you hear that, and what is the hold about? I had heard some rumors about crash tests or epa ratings or whatever needing to be certified.

I heard it from Bill from CJ Pony parts on Instagram. He gets updates everyday from his dealer. If you go on his picture of his wheel(2nd one from the newest one) and look down in the comments you'll see where he replied to me(@stace288) :)
