2017 Mustang Orders Placed Thread (Vote/Share Here)

Ok nearing the end here. Scheduled to pick it up Wednesday night. That's just 1 day short of 9 weeks, not bad. Would have been 7 weeks and a few days had it not been scratched during build/shipping.

This has been quite an exercise in patience

ETIS just updated showing my car was built on the 29th, 3 days late.

Hoping that doesn't change when my car is coming :(

LOL yeah the SI is a fun little car to boot around in. Not sure how it works theres Canadian members on here that got there stangs a lot faster than mine...

If its really not till Nov 30th Im considering cancelling my order. Thats just freakin ridiculous. I dont want a car to drive home when there is snow on the ground(with my luck there will be!). Not waiting 5-6Months for a car to be built.

I also live 4hrs from Flat Rock.

everyone says it will be worth the wait, but I'm with you. I'll completely miss convertible weather and be stuck with the top up for the first 6 months of ownership... or give the seat heaters a serious workout!

Nice! You should get a build date within a week or so.

I just got mine Sept 19th

I have my build date already it's the 8th. After that, I am told it will be 4 weeks before the vehicle arrives here. :(

update yesterday my car was marked in production, sent to plant!

I don't know what that means, but I am excited!

I wanted to post with my timeline, hope it helps someone else. I enjoyed everyone else's posts and it helped prevent me from ripping all my hair out when I was not patient and checking ETIS for the 10th time... that day.

From 2016 to 2017 price went up $500, I believe.

Check your sticker. 3190. The website still shows 2995 for me which is whats on my sticker. 2995 was after the 500 boost.

It's here! Don't mind the terrible snapchat pics please. I will take some good ones with my DSLR this weekend

As you can see I have found one of the holy grail parking spots

Few things. Fit and finish is overall good. Trunk alignment is a bit off it's raised on the left side. Bottom left of decklid panel is the worst I've seen, not flush with lights or along the bottom. Rear glass is higher on the right side so less of the brakelight is visible towards right half. Also some scratches on the inside of the rear glass That's nitpicking though, overall it's very good. Only the rear of the car is off, the rest is great!

Stalled it a good 4 times driving around last night and 3 times on the way to work this morning. Going to take the clutch spring out soon to get a better feel for the engagement point but it's awesome so far.

It smells a bit funny after driving and I know I'm not riding the clutch. I drove my friends car home from camping for 3.5 hours Sunday and he said I'm fine and I drove this the same way. Just hoping it's assembly oils/residue burning off. A search on smells from new pointed a bit to those so I hope I'm not already killing the clutch haha.
