In Sport Mode ... ALL THE TIME!
This is amazing news. I ordered two weeks ago and figured I'd be in for a longer wait [which also means time to save even more $$$] ... but if I get a schedule date sooner rather than later, I certainly won't be complaining!! Congrats to those who are scheduled for build!

Does anyone remember what Priority 10 means. I thought remembering hearing that it was just a general number, not that it was last. Placed an order today for MY17 Race Red, Blk Roof, Car Cover

It's 1-99. Lower is better. Retail orders are 10-20. Dealer stock orders are higher. It only matters for scheduling.

fwiw.. I intentionally asked for a higher priority as I wanted to get my other car sold and finances in order. I was priority 21, the sticker still says special order etc. I ordered 3/4, dora 3/7, build 4/18 and delivered 4/26.

I called Ford and check on my order. It is still in the processing stage. It has not been pulled. I guess I'll just wait.

Hi Everyone, I just received notification that Ford has pulled my 2017 GT350 order and it will be built the week of June 2nd. I wasn't expecting to get a build date until June or so. This was a huge surprise to me that I already have a build date and this even surprised my dealer quite a bit.

Has anyone else received a 2017 build date yet?

Btw, my build is Lightning Blue with white stripes, and Electronics package.

Thanks,
Wow! That is awesome!! Maybe there *is* hope to get mine before my birthday in September (ordered mine 4/26/16)

Congrats! You will have a very, very low chassis number. If true, yours appears to be week 1 of production.

I waited 9 months for my 16. Hoping the new dealer GM will get involved for me on my 17, last one did not.
Can't wait to see pics of your LB.

Just wanted to add to the above post as I have a VIN for my 2017 GT350R and it is scheduled to be built the week of May 30th.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

It is going to be hard to believe that I will have received an "F" "G" and "H" GT350 all in the same fiscal year!!!

I received my 2015 in January, the 2016 in April and looks like the 2017 sometime maybe in July?

If the 2017 gets built that week I will be somewhat surprised but having bought Ford vehicles for almost 5 decades now nothing should surprise me anymore.

Based on the above time line and to those that have 2016 GT350/GT350R's still to come I suggest that the end is near and you should have your new rides real soon.

Here's hoping the above timeline is correct! :clap2::clap2::clap2:

I wonder if you have established ford VIP status given your recent orders, so they fast tracked your 2017 build. Sounds like you will have a very low chassis number!

Wow! That seriously might be the very first one even, if not the first 5 or so. I bet you get scheduled to the day of 6/2.

To answer some of your questions I was just advised this morning by my dealership so I am not really sure when they actually got a VIN for me and the proposed production schedule?

I am not sure how early of a chassis number that I will receive as my VIN ends in H5520147 so not really that early of a VIN subject to where the earlier VIN's were assigned to?

One thing I can say for sure and I suggest that Ford has never sold 3 brand new Shelby's or any other Ford model for that matter to one family during the same calendar year namely 2016 (~7 month period) of which each Shelby is from the 3 last model years namely 2015, 2016 and 2017.

When ordering Mustangs, Boss and Shelby cars over many years I have seen some strange things happen but this one is at the top of my list and very excited to be part of it!
