Hope this is true, but don't hold your breath.
Might be Nov before you get your VIN.
90 Days after this for delivery.

Aye not holding my breath that's for sure still exciting to get some communication at least.

Hi Tim, we use our own internal information to supply you with an update. I am sorry for any confusion with any information that you are receiving. We have double checked and can confirm that it is now showing that it is likely to go into build in September. If you would like to come back to us at the end of this month we will be happy to confirm if this has been locked in for you. Hope this helps. Thanks FordService^CZ

Would be a good xmas present if true.

Yeah fingers crossed for sure :)

Optimistically if indeed mine does get built in Sept I'd say I'll see it in January.

I ordered mine January 31, 2016 and have the same feedback from Dealer and Ford on FB - The car will be built in September and delivery in December. No VIN yet but keeping the faith. My initial expectation when ordering was April 2017 so a December / January delivery will mean a pretty sweet summer!

Fingers crossed you get a Christmas present in the form of a Mustang!

I ordered on the exact same day mate, got the VIN a couple of days ago. You better chase Ford AU on FB one more time. We need to put more pressure so that they do something about it - perhaps demand even more allocations from Ford US.

You can put all the pressure you want and still won't get anywhere. Ford America don't give a stuff about Aussies as we are such a small market compared to the rest of the world. Just be patient. When I ordered mine I was told that it would probably be about an 18 month waiting list until I got it (June 2017). It looks like I will be getting it about December 2016 or January 2017 so that is 6 MONTHS earlier than I was originally told - so I am happy. If one is not prepared to be patient and wait calmly then one should not bother ordering one.

Hi guys I ordered mine jan 30th 2016 and picked up yesterday, under 7 month wait due to a canceled order, was really surprised to get a call in the first week of august to ask if I wanted to take delivery early, otherwise was told December 2016 or jan 2017. So said yes with no hesitation, all I can say from driving it home and a bit today is what a car could not be happier. Also has sync 3 which was good to, dealer said was the first one they have got in with sync 3.

Wow! Very lucky to get a cancelled order with sync 3! Wouldn't think anyone would be cancelling orders this late in the game!
