I blame the Wuhan Virus. It’s not like we can go to the gym or go out to eat. Angst over panel gap and the ridiculous pervasiveness of the Tech package will have to do
Ok I ran your list of wants through the latest (08/21/20) version of the VIN tracker sheet. For your desired specs (Perf Blue (PB), black roof, no stripes, no tech, with Recaros, with or without CF and with or without HP).
There is exactly one car like that in existence, VIN 1FA6P8JZ7L5551542...
Ford will build it for you. I ordered a no-Tech car on 7/31/20 and it’s being built week of 9/28. Not sure why you think you can’t order what you want.
if you’re looking for a car w/o the tech package and in a preferred color, you may as well order the car. I also could not fit into the...
I should think so. It’s a great package and it was my second choice for color. Having just come from owning an older GT500 in black, the thought of keeping a white car looking spic and span was more than I could handle.
Wow, looks like the dealers are pulling out all the stops on ordering. Is it me or are a lot more HEP cars being ordered? Wonder if they are mostly customer orders or for dealer stock?
Hi Bigron, it looks like a ton of GT350R’s got moved from scheduled to week, to scheduled to day status. Since I ordered about a week after you did, wondering if your “day” status was in the week in October they told you it would be in, or if they moved it to an earlier week?
I think maybe they...
I read that the order window closes Oct 2, see here:

Not sure if the window for a GT350 ends on that Oct. 2 date or if it can end sooner when the allocations run out. Maybe Ford can create more allocations...
Sorry you were hit, hope you’ve recovered. Insurance is treacherous. I once herniated a disc in my neck after a fall. I wish I could say it was a skydiving injury or something cool, but no, I got dumped on my butt in one of those kiddy bouncy house things at my little nephew’s birthday party...
My question exactly. I’d have said, sorry, I don’t carry car insurance, I drive a company car and it’s not mine. Then hand over your health insurance card. Let them fight the insurance company of the driver who hit you.
Very sorry for the OP who was injured, hope you are ok. I also hope you...
So now that the VIN spreadsheet shows that 2269 is going to a dealership just west of Seattle, do you think your theory regarding it going to a Ford executive still holds water? I tried the 2270 VIN on the trackmymustang site, swapping in all possible check digits and there is no 2270, at least...
This topic resonates with me. I used to frequently wake up with an irritated eye. To relieve that, I take it out and soak it overnight in contact lense solution. Now it stays fresh as a daisy, all day long.
Had kind of the same experience you did, where nothing moved and then suddenly I had an accepted order, a VIN and a scheduled week, all in the span of 48 hours.
I’m VIN 2175, scheduled week of 28 SEP. If all goes well, I can drive it home from the dealership before the snow hits....
Hi Ben,
Excellent job on the spreadsheet. Thanks to you, I was able to get my VIN. I got an order number from my dealer on Friday last but no VIN. Your spreadsheet was updated promptly Friday night and had my VIN in it!
Interesting that I ordered the car on 7/31 at the dealership, dealer put...
Interesting read. IP (intellectual property) law is a fascinating area. Having worked in corporate America running large brands, I can tell you our IP attorneys were quite vigorous in going after infringement. Each year I had to put together meticulous documentation showing how I had used the...
I can just see an attorney from Avis rewriting the rental contract terms, which will now specifically forbid cross-country record attempts.
Wonder if he took the rental car collision damage coverage or waived it?
So if they do discontinue the GT350, will it be known which one is the last in line? Might be kind of neat to own the “Omega Man” of GT350’s.......at least until they bring the marque back again.
