Got an update overnight from Deysha. My car has been in Baltimore since the 6th.
Can also see a whole stack of Aus spec cars are now coming up on the WWL tracking site. All booked on the PARSIFAL.
Progress!
Hi Phil,
Cargo ID is the correct field to be searching in. I just tried searching for my VIN with no luck.
I also just searched on the WWL site with the first 6 characters of the VIN (1FA6P8%) as this should capture all the Mustangs being sent via WWL. The most recent updates were on 15...
Anyone have any delivery or production updates?
I haven't read anything to suggest any Australian customer cars have have been released from the upfitters / put on a boat yet?
I sent a PM to Deysha over the weekend for an update but haven't heard back yet.
Another Aussie here :)
Member: XR6VCT
Country: Australia
Ordered on: 11/Oct/2014
Waiting time: 331 days (still counting)
Status: Not delivered (expected Nov/Dec 2015)
Thanks mustangguy64.
I can see 4 vehicles with consecutive VINs that are bound for Melbourne (1FA6P8CFXG5200195, 6 ,7 and 8). Looking up in ETIS these were built in mid July.
Assuming these are most likely final pre-production cars (or press cars?) and not customer cars.
Got an update from FordService over the weekend on my car.
No change... (i.e. car still waiting to go to the upfitter). Starting to get nervous about the 11th October ETA for arrival in Baltimore.
G RUSH - Have done a quick update to the ETIS comparison I did before between a 2016 US GT Premium with PP and a 2016 AUS spec GT. The only European one I could quickly find was an Ecoboost with the Custom pack so not a direct match... See attached.
Not sure it makes anything clearer though...
POJ 1, 11th October is the expected ETA into Baltimore that Deysha (Ford Service) has been advising based on our VINs.
Once your car is built Deysha should be able to give you an ETA for when your car is due into Baltimore.
Does anyone know what occurs at the upfitters?
The last update I had from Deysha was on 1 Sept and was that my car had been built and was due to go to the upfitter within the next week. I suspect based on what is being discussed here, and in the UK thread, that it hasn't gone to the upfitter...
Thanks for those screen grabs WILDB and GAFA. Good to see and gives some hope that we still might get the PP splitter on our cars.
From what I've seen European spec GT convertibles have the PP splitter. However, have only seen pictures of press vehicles and not any actual customer delivered...

Media release from Ford on rhd production. Based on the pictures of the Ruby red convertible it looks like the rhd cars will indeed be getting the base front splitter and...
Interesting. I'm assuming its going to take a month or so on the ship, so if that date doesn't change, it sounds like we are looking like mid November for delivery.
Sounds like Ford might be sending a month (or so) worth of production at a time. If that is the case it should mean a decent...
Good point WILDB. I'll keep an eye out for a Euro or UK spec VIN. So much guess work until cars actually get delivered.
I got an update from Deysha this morning. While my car finished building last Thursday it has not yet been released to the upfitter. This should occur within the next week...
Have run a comparison between the Aus spec GT and a 2016 US spec GT Premium with the performance pack (http://services.forddirect.fordvehicles.com/inventory/WindowSticker.pdf?vin=1FA6P8CF8G5208425. Refer to the attachment. All differences are in yellow.
Note the US car also has a couple of...

I received my VIN at the start of August after asking the dealer for it (unsure when it would have first been available).
Once I received it I was then constantly checking for a window sticker. I understand that window stickers become available on the Thursday (US time) of the week before it...
