2017-18 Shelby GT350 / GT350R Mustang Orders Placed (Vote/Share Here)

[machsmith]

ordered 7/21 GT350 (first mustang ever!)
still no VIN...does this mean next year I'll be seeing my car?!

No, they are most likely scheduling until the end of Sept.
Ask your dealer if they have allocation for the car yet and if they do, there is a chance it could be built before winter.

Pretty sure only GT350R production goes on hiatus over the fall/winter because the Cup 2 tires do not react well in freezing temps.

AFAIK, non-R GT350 production has no such interruption.

Anyone able to confirm?

Spoke to Trent at Ford Performance today. My order is still on UMH (order put in 4/21), but I did ask him about the potential hiatus for all GT350s. He said it is not true and only applies to the Rs due to the cup2s.

Was comforting to hear, and hopefully it's accurate!

Yes, i wasn't certain I believed that either. Still, one party says this and one says that... guess we'll know for sure in a couple months.

350 production

I talked to Mike G. on Friday at FP. He hasn't heard anything about stopping production on the regular 350s. He just laughed when I said the info came from the forums.

I checked on my order today at the dealer. My status went from "locked" to "locked ?" Does anyone know what the "?" means?

So today is the Blend Date of my GT350, 20160822 3395 ! Anyone else have a blend date of today ? As far as I understand it, this is the day it is produced and comes off the assembly line.

Hey. This is a little off topic, but anyone have a picture of their R dash chassis plate?

I don't really need a picture, but I just want to confirm what it says exactly.

CHASSIS HR111

Or would it be

CHASSIS HR0111

Or is it something else?

It's an R car (obv)...not sure if it's the same for R's and non-R's.

Just my opinion but I suggest that there is no need to mention anything about your R model being a 2017MY since the "H" signifies that it is in fact a 2017 GT350 and the "R" tells everyone that you have an R model as if the outward appearance of your car doesn't already tell the story of your R model.

Personally I really like "HR111" as that pretty much speaks for itself.

Without looking back through a bunch of posts what color combination did you order and is it a base 920A car or does it have the Electronic Package?

Congratulations on your new 2017 GT350R model!!!!

Thanks Harry, was told that it will be built late september. Nothings set in stone when it comes to these things tho. I think it will happen, probably early october. Should be sheduled within a couple weeks.
