I had an email from my dealer on Saturday that the US has increased allocation for Australian deliveries. I have one on order for my sales manager at work and it was originally scheduled for build in November 2016, this has now been brought forward to July!

Anyone else heard of this?

I hope your sales manager is appreciative!

Haven't heard but in the words of Big Kev "I'm excited"

When I ordered mine in January my dealer implied things may change with lead times so mine could potentially come sooner than next January.

I've asked the question directly to Ford AU on Facebook. They're pretty good with responding, so will be interested to hear how they reply. Will post here if I get a response.

Hopefully the shipping and logistics will also be ramped up to cope with the additional production.
With some ships only having a handful of cars, it seems it is shipping, not production, which is the current bottleneck.
