I don't mind waiting for the car. My biggest fear is getting screwed out of the deal I have in place. I won't truly trust the deal I have until the papers are signed, keys are in my hand and my rear end is in the seat of the car I ordered as I drive away in it.
I went back and looked at the list. It looks like my car and one other built the same week will be the first CFTP cars built this year. Production of cars seems to be moving quicker and Penske shouldn't be backed up with lots of GT 500s to paint stripes on.
I just went from a scheduled build week of March 16th to a scheduled build day of March 16th! I will be glad to see the baby's dance for me soon! How long is it taking for CFTP cars with POTTS to go from build day to delivery on average? I have to go to Japan at the end of May.....
I live in southern California. Most of the GT 500s around here are going for $30k to $50K over sticker. I have a Golden Ticket Car on order at $15K over sticker and will have to travel half way across the country to get it but it was the best deal that I could find.
Does anyone know the average time it takes between the car being produced, go to Penske and get the stripes painted on then be returned to Ford then to be shipped out?
Congrats KB! Your car looks awesome! Thanks for posting pics. The POTTS look worth the price of admission to me and the Carbon goodies look worth it too! I sure hope my snack pack looks just as good in Iconic!
That's a long drive but I bet it will be fun doing it in your GT500. I haven't decided yet if I will drive mine back from OKC or have it shipped back to SoCal in an enclosed carrier truck. I am not a native CA resident so I still don't understand the crazy 50k ADMs out here. Please take...
Hi Dave,
I live a little further south of you in Temecula. I am close enough to join some of the Cars and Coffee events if I get the car before I go to Tokyo. Did you have to go far to find your car and beat the CA Ford dealer ADMs? I finally settled on an allocation in OK city. The whole...
Hi Again Dave,
I am a little further south of you and live in the Temecula area. I am close enough to hang out at some of the same Cars and coffee events if schedules permit. Did you have to go far to beat the ridiculous CA Ford dealer ADMs? I had 2 deals in Maine but one fell through and...
Hi KB,
Hang in there! Your wait is almost over. I will keep the faith with you that the snack pack is worth the wait! I am so looking forward to your opinion when you finally get it!
Hi Earl,
My information for 1325 has not changed. I am still set for a build week of 3/16. I am hoping that mine gets moved up like some of the other orders.
