  1. Ordered a week ago… VIN and date question

    I may as well give you all the info at once :-) Once you have your DORA you will see TWO THINGS you need on there. They are 1) the dealer code and 2) the order number. You don't necessarily need the DORA to see those two, the dealer could just give them to you, but its easier to use the DORA...
  2. Ordered a week ago… VIN and date question

    Oh and ask him for a DORA. Thats the system generated email the system sends the dealer when Ford accepts your order. It will show the priority number there and is confirmation that the dealer did actually put in your order and isnt stalling.
  3. Ordered a week ago… VIN and date question

    It's a specific priority number just for your order. Your dealer gave you one when he inputted your order in the system, so yes he knows what it is but often they play off if you ask them :-)
  4. Ordered a week ago… VIN and date question

    It ALL depends on the priority number your dealer gave your order. Really as simple that. And how many allocations they have. I got picked up within 2 days of my order and got a Vin that same day. Most people don't. I would try to nicely ask your dealer what your priority number was. A 10 is...
  5. Walkaround and photoshoot of my GT PP Blood red!

    The great thing about Race Red is that as good as it looks in pictures, it looks 10 times as good in person. Take my word on that if you haven't seen one. I don't think one person ever who ordered a race red sight unseen doesn't fawn over it upon delivery. Awesome color.
  6. My Mustang is born today :-)

    Fear not my friend. Flat Rock has produced hundreds of thousands of Mustangs over the past decade. My ordered 2005 GT came off that line in June of 05 :-) This is routine for them.
  7. 3.15 gears or 3.55 opinions needed

    Heck of a value. ~$300. Available on every trim level, including the base GT. It's the same 3.55 that is included in the LE Performance Package Automatic.
  8. What colors would you pick? Ruby red or triple yellow?

    I say Triple Yellow. This generation of Mustang just looks good in the lighter and brighter, more colorful hues. I'm going Race Red for similar reasons, but love the yellow.
  9. For those of you who love the new Mustang, pick just one thing you hate-Read 1st Post

    YES!!! First thing I noticed. They are so plain looking. Kind of strange with the rest of the interior so well updated.
  10. My Mustang is born today :-)

    Just knowing she's alive I no longer worry about the time. :-) Gonna be a looong train ride anyway all the way to the west coast.
  11. My Mustang is born today :-)

    Blend date 12/15 :-)
  12. For those of you who love the new Mustang, pick just one thing you hate-Read 1st Post

    Here's my one quibble. Absolutely breaks my heart that the big front center mounted fogs are gone on the GT. Talk about intimidation :-) I mean I drove with my 4 lights on all the time in my 05 GT and people parted like the red sea when I came up from behind. SO much damned fun. Had a red...
  13. S550 big? Who's coming from a small2 seater to the S550?

    Yeah I feel you. Low end torque is the difference maker for me. A RWD V8 "feels" tangentially different to me than any other driving experience, it is in a word unique. It cant be replicated in the same way by other car types like the small roadsters, nor can the Mustang replicate those cars...
  14. S550 big? Who's coming from a small2 seater to the S550?

    The 15 Mustang does feel big. It is a big car as far as sports cars go and yeah you feel the weight It's also gotten wider this generation, and a bit heavier so those contribute. To be completely honest Mustangs have always felt a bit big. My 05 GT felt heavy, but that car got me more enjoyment...
  15. 3.15 gears or 3.55 opinions needed

    Oh trust me, all the immediate power you think you have, you have less than a 3 55 automatic. I have driven more GT automatics at both ratios than most people here. Think of it at 150% to your 100% as far as pedal mashing speed and fun.
  16. 3.15 gears or 3.55 opinions needed

    Always get the 3.55 if you're getting an auto GT. The auto is a dog with the tall 3.15 ratio. There is absolutely zero reason for a Mustang with the 5.0 liter to have a 3.15 ratio. The only reason Ford does it is because of fuel economy govt nagging. It is a power sapping bad gear ratio for...
