It´s the Galveston Highway that will take the first Mustangs to Bremerhaven, Germany. Got this info from a Ford guy who can look up more than the regular dealers.

So the In Transit on our Cotus is just plain false? Would love to know what ship does Belgium though!

08.06 must be read as 6th of august? (as per US dates)

Edit: Probably not, as it would not be this detailed with times. 8th of June it is then.

 

[garbancillo]

I guess also whethe we should understand June 8 or August 6...:shrug: I'm gonna check the vessels schedule at the WWL web site...

You can stop wasting your time, just heard that the cars are still outside the factory. Cotus is correct about VIN, order & build dates but not the transit and delivery. August it will be my friends!

Just a little correction - Cotus is not correct about the build date as I mentioned here.

Not all mainland Europe bound cars have to go on the same boat. I doubt that it will be a boat dedicated to just Mustangs either.

Dealer could see that the current location was outside the factory...

 

[UNtamed67]

Reached a next step....EDD gone in COTUS...should mean 'In transit' is approaching...

 

[FelixGER]

That´s very possible. There are cars built at the same day as mine and they are still at "assembly offline" and "awaiting shipment" in Cotus.

But there are cars that are at the port in Baltimore, too.

It´s not even first in-first out. There is no pattern in this. They just seem to go into transit randomly.

My first post here....although been a lurker for some time.

I have ordered a Fastback GT, auto with Premium Pack and the extra alarm thing.

Order Received - 18/3
COTUS accepted order - 30/3
Production ended - 6/5
In Transit - 28/5
Expected Delivery - 25-27/7 (according to dealer)

My EDD dissapeared some 10 days ago (probably when car went into transit). Shipping, according to the Window Sticker will be via Baltimore and WWL.

Can't wait!

Only plans i have for it are some nice 20" wheels

Like I said...

If you live across the pond and have already ordered a 2015 Ford Mustang, I have good news for you! Earlier this week the first shipment of cars were loaded onto a boat and have been sent sailing towards the continent! On top of that, the symbol of American freedom and performance will arrive by the 4th of July; Independence Day!
