Just a quick thought for those picking up their new Mustang, they will initially seem comparatively down on power, compared to their full potential, and you will probably notice an incremental increase in performance every week for the first 4,000-5,000 klms.
For those getting a (or with an...
Congratulations !! Good luck with the pricing - I hope the Dealer honours the original Contract price.
Have you checked your contract / order Terms and conditions Re Fixed or Agreed Pricing? I think unless there is a Caveat specifically allowing for a Pricing Variation, they are bound by the...
Yes, I noticed the D/A price for an Auto GT in Atlas Blue had a $400 Price Increase ($74,706 to $75,101), and the Premium Paint Option Price went from $650 to $700. Interesting that they increased the price just before the new Gen7 S650, and at a time when the Current and outgoing model is no...
In addition to getting weekly Order Status Update Screen Shots from your Dealer (Customer Service or Car Controler), once you have your VIN, you could try this for our "Export" Mustangs: Where is my Mach-E (whereismymme.com) This was a great source of info, however had been off-line as stated...
Yes, I think early Aug 2023 (or even July) would be a safe bet for first deliveries of the AU MY24 Mustang. Up to 18-20 months ago, the Build to Dealer time frame was about 8 weeks, however the last I saw that had blown out to 10-12 weeks with production slowdowns causing queuing for shipping...
The main variable is when RHD production will start. However, the rule of thumb guestimate I am using would be: 06/03/22 + 4 weeks to start of AU RHD production, plus 12-14 weeks compound and shipping time. So best probable scenario about 16 weeks after 06/03/22 = Late June / early July 2023.
Current FN / S550 Production END DATE is 28/02/2023

With an early May ETA, it looks like you could be the proud owner of one of the last Gen 6 / FN Mustangs, as the Current FN / S550 Production END DATE is 28/02/2023, and Shipping ETA is currently around 2.5+ months from production. As Chooka said, you need a Segmentation (Production Date) now...

The Paint and Clear Coat are way too thin - perfect to attract stone chips like flies to flypaper even where there are none (stones). The other thing I really hate is the distance between the Brake and Accelerator pedals (on the Auto), with the Accelerator pedal hiding somewhere behind the...
I forgot to mention the "Appearance Package" on the GT is NOT available with any of the other three Packages (ie Black, MagnaRide or Recaro Seats), and as it is also available on the EcoBoost, it would rule out a return of the California Special, which was the previous Appearance Pkg.
As I stated previously Ford Au's Mustang Order Books are currently Closed - and the next time they open (Q1 2023), it will be for the MY24. Therefore, the chance of ordering a new 2023 S550 of any kind is ZERO. Unfortunately, the California Special is NOT listed as an option on the MY24...
Unfortunately the last 18-24months or more has certainly not been short of frustration if you want a new Mustang, with an erratic local supply which went from a trickle to zero, with the Order Books Closed again since early October. I managed to be successful in not getting one, although I...
Apologies for the late response, unfortunately I have not had any luck with updates on the MY23, however for anyone interested I do have some info on the Aust' MY24...

For me the issue is not "never been stopped when I didn't deserve it", but more a case of less conspicuous "under the Radar" and Not Getting stopped when I did deserve it. (although the speed limits are ridiculously and arguably criminally low - Revenue raisers).
The difference between the...
