Jeez! My car built 4/23 has entered Europe yesterday and will be at the dealer in a few days. I never imagined I would get the car before a US order of the same time.
Got confirmation that my car is on the Galveston:

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...
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...
The customer cars come first. 100%
My dealer which is well informed told me that the customers who ordered early will come first, showroom cars later, that“s why the official launch was postponed to September 12.
You heard, mmmh. ;)
I got it black on white, my car was scanned in the docks of Baltimore.

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.

The V8 is generous but the effect isn't blazingly quick because it's working against 1651kg of prime US beef.
That“s the first time I hear the V8 is not quick. Jesus...what about the Ecoboost? Like a Golf TDI? ;)
Or they really detuned it for Europe.
