Build Week 4/27

[Howman59]

The car is beautiful and I know you are excited but there's no way I'd take delivery of the car with the rear window like that. Hold out for another one.

Unless it's not as bad in person as it appears in the photo.

Really? What's wrong with the rear window? If he's happy then I'm happy for him!

Nice ride!!! Enjoy!!!

Driver's side top corner of the window is slightly lower than the passenger side. Pretty much every car I've checked has had the issue, it's not really noticeable unless you are looking for it though.

Yes, I am aware of the issue and agree that its really not noticeable unless you look for it. Not a reason - in my opinion - to refuse delivery of car unless the window was completely cockeyed and its not.

Thanks.

My EDD updated to 5/24- hopefully it gets bumped up again a few days so I can have a holiday day or two to break in properly.

Just stopped by the dealer to pick up some paperwork. Saw a Ruby Red Mustang off to the side so I went to take a look at her, and shes mine!

Two more days of a piece of garbage Saturn that I have to inflate one tire on every day until I can be driving this beauty.

I was driving a 2001 Saturn L200 with 85k miles, no heat, no AC, dented hood and scratched side doors. Asked for a trade in value. 1st dealer offered me $300 and dissed my car big time saying they were doing me a favor to junk this POS.
Went to a 2nd dealer who was more professional and honest and quoted me $1500. I called my wife right away to pick me up. I signed the papers and left my car with the dealer.

My EDD was yesterday. Today, I dont have one listed at all. Car has been stuck at awaiting shipment for over 2 weeks. Has this happened to anyone else with a 4/27 build week? I'm worried something bad happened to my car.

ford service was kind enough to check on it for me but could only say "My system shows your Mustang is currently in production, and is waiting for an update on the ETA"

thanks!

Mine is honestly deserving of the junk yard. 99 SC2 with 180k, minor damage to the front bumper and hood, serious interior problems though. Headliner falling down and ripped, driver's seat ripped, likely mold/rust in the footwells due to a problem with the sunroof, steering wheel literally falls apart in your hands, passenger power mirror doesn't work. Mechanically it's has issues too, burns oil pretty bad but all the 1.9L engines do, clutch and trans are good, but suspension is dead, there's a good 10-15 degrees either side of center where the steering wheel does absolutely nothing. Car pulls to the right... sometimes, a few weeks ago I was on the highway going straight, didn't change pressure on the wheel and all of a sudden it's going to the left, the car follows the grates on metal grate bridges without any steering input. Pretty sure there's a problem with one wheel as it has had a slow leak that has gotten worse with time despite having the tire and vavle stem replaced.

how did your car pass inspection? it's a clear and present danger on the road
you need to take a pic of your saturn and pony side by side when you get it. probably gonna have a biggest grin on your face.

NJ got rid of safety inspections a while ago. Now if your car isn't throwing codes and you pass emissions you're good to go.
