- 2015 LE Mustang
Response from my salesman:
Morning Tim,
I talked to XXXXXX (who orders the Vehicle's) and this was his response.
The orders were prioritized based on model (the limited edition one was put up to priority 10 for several reasons). We did have 4 retail Mustang orders placed within a one week period, but whether it’s a 10 or 15 is not a huge factor. Allocation and commodities usually determine how fast something gets built rather than priority number. All the retail orders we have are different and one may get built ahead of another regardless of priority. 99.99% of the time we get our retail orders built as quickly as possible.
As you read the Limited Edition bumped the priority BUT that does not mean it will be here first.
Have a Great 4th of July.
^^^^This pisses me off because I was the one that had to hammer on them to order the car on the 20th. It took four days to get the car ordered because like many dealers they had no clue the banks opened up. I understand the LE took priority over mine because I am a X-Plan and the LE went for $20K over MSRP but....really? I fully understand the LE's might be built after mine due to content (limited commodities, special one off colors) but this has not been the best experience because to this particular dealer Mustang is just another unit. I only ordered from them because another did not respond and they actually let me test drive a Track Pack '14 (i.e. extended beat the piss out of it) so I felt obligated to give them a shot.
If they get their retail orders before mine I will be unhappy but as others posted that may be a good thing because they will get it out of their system. My hope is my basic 300A which has less content will build sooner than the others.
All of this will go away once I see a VIN, until then.... :frusty:
I'm not completely sure what you're upset about here. LEs should be first not because of the MSRP or how much it sold for but because ford said they will be "among the first off the line" so I mean if they already have the orders for those and they are supposedly built first I don't see any reason why yours if not LE would be put in front of them (unless solely to test production before building those premium vehicles)
