Which one of you is going to drive first?It has arrived.![]()
Blend date is when they have secured all the parts needed for the build. You can consider the beginning of actual assembly the blend date. The car will be "built", complete assembled, several days after the blend date. My blend and built dates were three days apart.So after being told my car wasn't going to get produced until June 27th, I logged onto the tracker and found out that it's in production today! Got a window sticker and everything.
Hopefully the wait won't be too much longer now. Although I noticed the price on the window sticker vs the DORA I ordered just 6 months ago is $3k more — inflation at work, lol.
EDIT: Blend date of 6/28 from the looks of the sticker if I am reading it right? Does that mean the build gets finished on 6/28 or that's when it begins?
If the car is being sold below invoice, it is most likely NOT receiving price protection. The car will be sold below invoice, the new, higher price invoice, when it arrives. Certainly, the dealer can confirm.I'm going to email them and find out — I didn't have to put down a down payment with Chapman, but I've heard some people on here say that they don't price protect orders, which is a real bummer if true.
At least I should get the 4% instead of 3% under invoice since I have emails saved from them saying they'd give that to me.
yes, we honor price protection.My order was placed 2/11 before a price increase. You guys honor the price when ordered correct? I think we have seen 2 increases since my order and deposit date.
I guess it's a nice problem to have? You get a good deal on the '21?So my order is is built and has now been awaiting shipment for about a week. It's going to be a tough call for me, I currently own a 21 mach 1 velocity blue 700a automatic with nav. I have also added hp spoiler and ford performance wheels and ceramic coat. My order is a grabber blue 600a automatic with nav and red calipers. The 21 msrp was I believe 57800 and the 22 msrp is 59000, and Is obviously not coming with all the 700a features. Last year I would've picked grabber blue over velocity blue every time, but the color has grown on me a lot since owning this car. Also I'm pretty sure grabber blue metallic is different than ford's previous grabber blue color.
I'll make final decision when I see the color in person but as of now I'm leaning towards losing the 700a features for the 22 and then this time doing full hp conversion.
Yes under msrp, I'll get a good amount more than what I paid for it because of the 22 price increase raising the 21s values. But I've also put 4000 into it already. It's a good problem to have but also stressful because I'm an indecisive person by nature.I guess it's a nice problem to have? You get a good deal on the '21?
DONT ORDER FROM CHAPMAN. WIDLY KNOWN THEY WILL NOT HONOR AND THEN STEAL THE REBATE THEY RECIEVE FROM FORD. Order from @Granger Ford over Chapman / @dealerinsider if you can.I'm going to email them and find out — I didn't have to put down a down payment with Chapman, but I've heard some people on here say that they don't price protect orders, which is a real bummer if true.

Well that sucks, I probably would have ordered from Granger instead if I'd known... Ordered from Chapman because I read a bunch of rave reviews on here and I have a couple friends down around that area (I grew up in northern DE).DONT ORDER FROM CHAPMAN. WIDLY KNOWN THEY WILL NOT HONOR AND THEN STEAL THE REBATE THEY RECIEVE FROM FORD. Order from @Granger Ford over Chapman / @dealerinsider if you can.
what rebate? No rebates on Mach 1 s.DONT ORDER FROM CHAPMAN. WIDLY KNOWN THEY WILL NOT HONOR AND THEN STEAL THE REBATE THEY RECIEVE FROM FORD. Order from @Granger Ford over Chapman / @dealerinsider if you can.
In my experience there was no hidden fees with Chapman . straight up 4% below invoice and nothing else. I even paid my own tax/reg in my own state.
