Yeah me too, seems like they don't give two hoots and I have to chase them for updates... I hope no one needs to go through this fucked up ordering process ever again

4 me never again, hopefully ill get the car eventually.This is the fourth new car i've brought and number one on the stress department. Dont worry when i finally get my car ill have something to say to both Ford and the dealer. Incompetent imbeciles all of them.
The panel beater told me that in America that Mustangs are a throw away car and that the yanks aren't fussy on build quality?They keep em for 2 or 3 years and flip em.
Dealers and they're panel shops are all fucking wankers i guess?

Oh man I'm going to blast them both too. The writings are ready to go all over the place. First, a nice polite fuck you very much email to both, then onto social media.

Finally made it to the pre-delivery centre, 10 days later. Condition report looking good, hoping to see it early next week. The time that will take from Port Melbourne to my garage will be equivalent to the time taken from Baltimore to Melbourne.

That is ridiculous . You are paying for a brand new car which is free of serious damage or repair. The fact it is at the panel beater I would ask for compensation for pain and suffering. I wouldn't buy a new car that had to be rectified. Personally I would not proceed with the sale and I would insist that another car free of damage be sought.
I have written a letter to ford Australia about the amount of damage being reported on our cars . I personally had a 10 cm scratch in the engine bay but the part is being re sprayed by shelby as ford said the best they can do is buff it out.
Mate if this car is important to you I would not accept second best.

No its being resprayed by a 3rd party.

No Shelby factory in AU, just a 3rd party mob that bolts it all on and slaps a new sticker on it.
