So... my car arrived at the dealership this Tuesday.
Cleared inspection Wednesday.
BUT, since I'm in buyback with Ford with my Ecoboost... I likely won't get my hands on the GT until next week 💀
I asked my dealer, apparently Ford sends notice at delivery if there's a value difference, to ensure you get the price you locked in. If it doesn't happen, it might be the dealer being scummy?
FUN FACT, price protection goes out the window if you're like me... and add things to your build while waiting forever.
My MSRP is an additional $2300 vs if I had been more decisive at initial order...
Does every line of data on the module need to be filled out, or just "look like this"?
My timeline as of this week:
5/18- "Build day" per Ford
5/19- FPerformance says in chat that I'm in "Stage 2 at Flat Rock. Production & Trim"
5/20- Ford tracker adds this date to my Production milestone &...
If you go digging in this thread, someone mentioned being able to track exactly where the car was in-transit.
I thinnnnk they got the tracking info from Ford, and then just hop onto the shipping co's portal.
Just got word my build date was pushed to 2 day.
Mar 24, 2022: 5/2 date build date
Apr 10, 2022: Pushed to 5/16
May 4, 2022: 5/18 new date
GT Premium in Grabber Blue, 6-speed, 401A, Performance Package, MagneRide, Active Exhaust, B&O, Safety, Grabber Blue Stitch.
Talked to Ford, and they're...
Found out from my dealer the other day (he's not sure why Ford isnt emailing me), that I got bumped from 5/2, to 5/16 💀
I'm basically a "Kitchen Sink" premium build... so betting 1 mod in particular did me in 😂
From these new pics, I'm very happy to see it's indeed a blue/purple, and not a purple/black shift many of us were worried about.
That said, it's darker than what I would want in a color-shift blue/purple.
Very happy with my Grabber order, and can always do a wrap if I want to have some fun haha
Bugged my Dealership since it's Thursday!

HIM: No mustangs scheduled this week from Ford. It is at the top of the list as soon as they schedule mustangs again.
ME: As in, it got bumped to "Priority 1" on their number scale?
HIM: Priority 02 actually…but, that is the last step before...
@22darkmatter also got PP and ordered 1/31.
I ordered a week before, and also happen to be getting expedited because my order is a buy-back.
So yeah, not sure! But ultimately, the delay helped me remember 2 things I forgot to order, so I guess I should be happy haha
