So I emailed my dealer here in Sydney to chase some info on my car.
I said that after I spoke with him last time (1st Nov) that I got a call from Ford Oz saying I had a build date of 8th Dec with delivery 16th Feb, and did he have any further information for me such as the VIN.
This is the...
Haha nice one Greg, I've seen many of your post and chimed in a few times.
The silence from their FB department is astounding in its silence - how not to social media 101
I'd encourage everyone to really have these discussions on Fords Facebook posts rather than here. This forum technically is the best place to have them, however the public pressure that can be applied from Facebook is phenominal. You can bet there more then happy that we talk here rather then in...
I'll be getting one when the Mustang arrives, Sydney is just horrendous for traffic accidents.
Haven't really done much research just yet, although http://dashcamownersaus.com.au/shop/ also have some reviews on different products.
Check them out on facebook to see why you need one.
Ebay... wouldn't touch it with a barge pole unless it was also listed on carsales.com.au or something else as well.
Then I'd be doing some serious background checks too.
Are all the pre-orders not coming in that timeframe, Melbnut?
I can only go off my own experience which is; I ordered 13 March 15 (if I remember correctly) before the cutoff date, was given a verbal of Dec - Feb, then the call from Ford Aus this week saying a tentative of 16 Feb 16.
Are there...
Probably because there aren't any press cars rolling around either, so not even a photo op in it for them, although Motor has had a few shots of the KPM Mustang (converted).
I'd say that most of your average car journo's at the moment probably don't track the intricacies of the movements/delays...
After seeing the paint damage due tot he sun on my XR8 and hearing about the thinness of the paint from the Americans, a full wrap is pretty high on my list.
The missus is a graphic designer and does wrap designs at her work so we talked about doing something cool with a wrap anyway, but I'm...
Thanks guys, surprisingly I got a response from my dealer today and wasn't expecting one till the weekend was over, so thumbs up to Craig there.
He sent me this:
13/02/16 R5LH*O 129089 MUSTANG 2016.00 2DR FASTB GT 5.0L 4V 6SPD MAN MAGNETIC Morgan B*****
The 13/2 is an estimated date, so not...
Beautiful car David.
You're really going to need a distributor here in Australia haha, importing all your bits is going to be mega expensive, especially the fascia lol
I'm getting worried now, ordered in March '15 and had a revised delivery date of Feb '16.
But the only contact I've had from City Ford in Sydney was to sign the contract, since then I had the email form Ford Aus saying here's your Mustang with the pic and options with a 'promise' to keep me...
My decision to purchase the Mustang was specifically because of price.
Yes, I dearly wanted one, and it was number 1 on the list of cars I was looking at. However of Ford had not released it at the price they did I would more then likely be driving a hot hatch now, or possibly the last XR8.
So...
