Mine was released on 3/1 and still says its awaiting shipment. Im hoping that it shows up but I'm not holding my breath. Im pretty disappointed in Ford with this purchase.

Took delivery today! Blend was 2/9 and part of the hold-hell. Panels look good and even the back window looks aligned properly.

Only thing I'm questioning is the dash. It has the 'plain' aluminum look. I was under the impression that the premium gt had a different dash - I do have the 50 yrs appearance on it. Whatever the case, I love it. Drove ~200 miles today. Dumb grin on my face the whole time. For those that are still waiting, I feel your pain. 18 weeks from order to receipt, but all happy now!

That isn't the correct dash. Mine isn't plain aluminum. Pics please.

Cotus Off/On

COTUS has been weird this whole week. About 50% of the time it won't recognize my VIN. I was informed Monday by my dealer that after 5 weeks on hold my car was moved to 'in Transit' category. But COTUS still shows "awaiting shipment' hold but my EDD which was 03/17 blanked out on 03/16 and has never returned.

Me too. same thing here. I am waiting for my dealer to call at any min. to tell me I can come and get the car, but COTUS has me at 6 more days to delivery. (when it does recognize my car, that is).

My dealer doesn't know much more than COTUS or FordService... It's still awaiting shipment and they just think it will be here by the end of the month...

Although I am pretty sure that my car will not see a train railcar, but instead go straight on a truck. Which means it should ship quick once it starts moving. 9 more days...

Did you week 2/2/15 folks learn any more of reason for hold at factory ??

I am thinking it was the "squealing brake" issue and its fix.

The TSB15-0030 calls for replacement of all 4 rotors and pads.

Cut in date is 2/11/15 which seems about right with all reports.

Reality about to set in

Just talked to dealer again. My car was loaded onto a carrier for the final 40 miles to the dealer. it is on the road now, but he doesn't know when it will get there today. could be too late to pick up today. He said it got loaded onto the carrier before he could get his driver to go and pick it up. And once it is on the carrier, it is theirs until it gets dropped off. They won't take it back off till final destination. That's ok. now I know I will have it probably tomorrow.

COTUS showing 11 days till delivery. But to my surprise, it's still "Awaiting Shipment"!! Been in this situation before...about a month ago..... Is this ever going to end? Like others have said, If there was a different car that i wanted as much as this one, I would have already left this party from hell.

Mine is EDD 3/24 but is still at flat rock. I'm done with this whole process, dealer is sourcing me another car close to what I ordered. Hopefully I can get one before the end of next week.

That is the correct dash as long as you don't have the Performance Pack - that one gets the turned aluminum circle dash with 2 additional gauges in the center vs 3 air vents.

As of the 18th the car is officially on a train. Edd is the same. I calculated today that i might be able to ride a bicycle faster. Hopefully it arrives faster

He has the 50th Anniversary Appearance Pkg and that does not come with a plain aluminum dash.

Just so I don't have to go through the pages and pages of all the interior trim threads could someone list the dashes that come with each trim? Pics would be nice.
