Carmen (departing 29 May 2015)

[jwaters]

My contract all up is $61,970.70 including the $2995 dealer delivery which was pretty steep, standard NSW though. Still I'm not unhappy with that price, a lot of car for the money.

Mate mine is $60,109.
My dealer fee was like $2000 or less I think and I didn't get charged for the black colour.

That's a good price

Thats the cost for the any of the metallic colours, or triple yellow and competition orange.

Is shadow black classified as a metallic colour?

Nope, and nope. As is standard around here, I've had far more information throughout this whole process than my dealer has.

Ordered from City Ford Zetland. Might send him an email now to look out for the car monday or Tuesday

I wasnt sure, so I checked the US build options, they only charge the extra cost on triple yellow, white platinum and ruby red.

Ford AU charges the extra on those plus, ingot, magnetic, lightning blue and shadow black. Money grabbing for sure as they are not just passing on price of build but adding a premium based on colour choice.

[MENTION=24891]jwaters[/MENTION], mine has just updated! Due for delivery to the dealer today :ford: :first:

Mine is showing on PrixCar as expected pick up 5/7 and delivery 8/7
Silly question - if it is only going from Altona to Geelong (60kms) why would that take 3 days??!!
I get that even though it arrived at the docks on Friday it won't get picked up yet due to customs etc but yeah that confused me

Not sure, mine only has to go 90 kms and apparently that's taking 6 days. If delivery is indeed today then it will be 5, but that does include a weekend

Mine says eta 5/7, so tomorrow.
How does yours get delivered before mine msweet?
Has yours been despathed from prixcar yet? Cause mine just says it's ready for despatch

Mine still says despatched, with no arrival date at the prixcar depot. But it now has the second line for delivery to the dealer, with an ETA 4/7 and says "ready for despatch". So sounds like ours are saying the same thing, but my ETA is today, no idea why yours takes an extra day. "Expected delivery" still says 5/7, but I think the ETA is the number to go off

Weird, doesn't say "delivered" to the prixcar yard like Crossy's did

Yeah mines the exact same as yours except the eta is 5/7

Well they must have been scanned somewhere to come up as "ready for dispatch". We'll see if mine shows up at the dealership today
