No need to log in in ETIS [MENTION=21182]THISELDO[/MENTION], just go to:

https://www.etis.ford.com/vehicleRegSelector.do

and insert your VIN. You have currently 11 digits from the VIN, now you need to add the first 6 to it based on the type of car you ordered.

In your case is 1FA6P8, according to [MENTION=12253]papinist[/MENTION] :hail::hail: (awesome italian dude!)

Yes, 1FA stands for the manufacturer, Ford Motor Company USA
6 is Restraint, Brake System and GVWR Class (?)
P8 with...

P8A Mustang V6 Coupe 2-Dr. Sedan
P8C Mustang GT Coupe 2-Dr. Sedan
P8E Mustang V6 Convertible 2-Dr. Sedan
P8F Mustang GT Convertible 2-Dr. Sedan
P8T Mustang I4 Coupe 2-Dr. Sedan
P8U Mustang I4 Convertible 2-Dr. Sedan
P8R Mustang 50 Year Anniv Coupe 2-Dr. Sedan
Your Window Sticker states that your car was build 21 dec.

Great time ahead! :headbang:

1FA6P8 is V8 GT, not Ecoboost?

Ecoboost convertible is 1FATP8U - not sure what coupe is I'm afraid.

  • 1FA stands for the manufacturer
  • 6 is Restraint, Brake System and GVWR Class (?)
  • P8 is the Mustang model

U is EcoBoost Convertible.
C is V8 GT Fastback.

Your letter is T (EcoBoost Fastback), which is the first letter included on the VIN you already have ;)

Your complete VIN is "1FA6P8THXG5239533" :D :first:

yep the VIN is correct details are shown, not happy as the model stated in my previous post shows MY2016 model which should have the new and improved SYNC 3 system, but looking into detail it shows SYNC 2 hmmmm :(

Yeap, no SYNC 3 for Europe even though we should be driving MY2016. As the Window Sticker states: "Standard Equipment List may not apply in export markets"....

And now lets focus on [MENTION=20131]Manders Mustang[/MENTION] rant!! :paddle:

At least you're bringing it back on topic. :lol:

Just to clarify any other the above confusion.
Sync 3 doesn't come on them.
My VIN starts 1FA6P8 - I'm a Fastback EB.

Just checked ETIS post lunch break, and Emails, nothing. Still looking at 1st Feb for the week it's meant to get built.

Ex GT in TY. Now GT Shadow in RR
Looking at those dates it almost looks like logistics is getting better. Built on 21st, Booked by Logistics to Vessel on 15th Jan and then received at Terminal on 20th.

Boat due to depart on 26th shows just over 1 month from build to boat which with Christmas in the way isn't bad at all really!

Update:

After a little slip up. Karen and Stacey are rectifying the misinformation - This is how customer service should be done. Steve is once again content :)*





*And talking about himself in 3rd person.

Is Steve going to tell us how they're doing that? Assuming your latest information is correct they can only make it 6 days better ;)

Steve isn't unfortunately, because that might be unfair. Not improving build dates, but they've got other ways and methods, we'll see, we'll see! :D:D
