WooHoo mine has moved to the "Trim Line" in the production conveyor belt. (No clue how close to the end that is but its movement!) :)

Thanks for the great news. When I talked to Ford Performance last week they said the production date had changed from 7/6 to 718 and I was bumming. I am limbering up to do the Snoopy dance!

I remember reading in one of the posts you can still get the Ford extended warranty yourself and is cheaper than if you got it from dealer. Is this true and if so does anyone know the link?

How long has it been taking people to go from produced too released to body shop, (Penske)?

Thanks.

Jon.

About two months.

Just kidding. I'll have a look at mine and get back to you

Edited to add:
I was produced on June 9th. I was released to body company on June 21st. The black hole still has my car. I am told that the car usually is at Penske for two weeks. I am due late this week or early next week. Then hopefully I will avoid the inspections that they are doing on select cars before shipping (which is a major hold up)

It looks like about 5 or 6 days from produced to being released to Penske. Except for you Tomster, looks like you get the award for longest wait.. I went to a dealer near me yesterday to see my first GT500 in person. Just made me want my car more and more. On a side note, that car had just sold with a 23K markup!! Base car 76K sticker, sold for 99K! YIKES!!

No one instance is identical. YMMV.
Enjoy the wait. I'll just glance over at my paper car with contempt from time to time.
