Would Ford wait to release these cars until after the embargo is lifted for the media?
I believe they will hold onto the cars until at least the media drives are done with. That way the press could not independantly test/drive a retail car. That would be unfair to other media outlets and less than optimal for Ford because it would be outside of their control.

I'm being told October delivery for the first run cars... Not to rain on any parades. Really getting impatient as well. So many friends and co-workers asking for updates daily only make it more painful.

I would assume he's talking about the first run of 2016s. The 2015s are built and I can't imagine them sitting (or being QC'd) for 2 months.

We're still in the game :-).

If its October, after waiting since May...I know where one will be on a lot for sale....I ordered a '15 GT way back on the first day you could order, months after they were on the road, the car showed....I was so over it, I didn't buy...Ford needs to get their timing accurate.

I really don't get this line of thought. Ford has never announced an official delivery date of the first cars, "late 2015" is the only thing I have seen printed. They allowed orders months before cars were even being built, so there has to be a certain expectation that its not like a normal run of the mill order for a production line already fully blown.

Your money, your car, but I think you will regret not being just a tad more patient. :cheers:

Yeah I get your point of view. Where I get upset is, Ford has told me a delivery date, several times and keeps changing it. Even if they had said Jan. 2016, no problem but i'm from the school, say what you do, do what you say. Premium for the car, I expect premium delivery and service.

Don't worry. The cure for this "issue" is very simple. Go to dealership after call telling you the car is there. Get behind the wheel and fire it up. Cured!!!!
Fire it up and..

I think they actually said late fall, not just fall. The first day of fall is September 23rd and the first day of winter is December 22nd, so October would be early fall.

I'm still hoping for September some time, at least for the 2015s. When will the mag reviews come out!?!

Really? A 2016 would be delivered by the end of August? Hmmmm. Did they say the car was in production or already produced?

If that's date is correct (I'm hoping it is :D), we should see the 2015s VERY soon. :thumbsup:

They said it was in production...Keep in mind, I personally do not think the phone reps have any idea, only what's in the computer...But that is what was stated.
