Only thing I wouldn't be happy with having it exposed to all customers in the showroom putting their hands all over it??:mad::mad:
My dealer had strict instructions that my car was not to enter the showroom at all for this very reason - I took delivery in the service reception area.

The owner of one of the first Mustang arrivals in Adelaide 'graciously' allowed his car to be displayed to customers as he was out of the country when it arrived and couldn't take immediate delivery - tyre kickers were even allowed to sit inside it.

As a result, the state of the driver's door card wasn't the best as people were scuffing it with their feet - there are pictures here somewhere.

:paddle:

EDIT: Here they are:

Take the opportunity if it works for you personally... I think anyone on here would do the same!

I will be SUPER jealous though - not particularly enjoying my 'character-building' wait.
Hi BrisSuz, I was offered a Ruby Red GT auto with Lustre Nickel wheels about a week or so ago by Sunshine Ford Gold Coast (Daniel was the salesman). It was unable to be taken by the person who ordered it as finance apparently knocked them back. It had the same specs as my order that I made on April 1st. Seven months and I could have had it. Not a bad April Fools.
Anyhow my finances are not ready until early next year so I suggest you give Daniel Hildebrand a call on 55827788.
By the way it is a MY17.

Yeah I wouldn't want mine sat in the showroom open for everyone to climb all through for that exact reason. It's not going to be a new car by the time you pick it up.

When I went to look at Mustangs the boss had to be asked if I could even sit in a car in the showroom, and that was after several visits and an assurance that I was going to order one. They seemed pretty careful to treat it carefully and even had signs asking people not to touch.

Updated tracking. Looks like all cars were loaded and the Tiger has departed (not sure how to confirm this but if I read it right the Baltimore leg has gone from green to red which appears to be 'confirmed (red)' vs 'estimated (green)'.

I have also added a few more boats scheduled.

If any of these Vins belong to anyone here, happy days you are going on board the Talisman.
I noticed that these vehicles were received at the terminal very late in the working day, right before knock off time. Hopefully they start work tomorrow and finish unloading the train which contains many more. Keep your eyes skinned from 10pm EST time / Vic / = 8am Baltimore.
