Wow! I ordered mine on the 16th of October and it was built 03/03/17. I was hoping mine would be here early may but it seems more and more likely it will be late may. Its getting haaaaaaaaard to wait.
Has your ETIS settled?

I think ETIS has settled, it looks the same as other VIN that are already loaded at Baltimore.
What I don't understand is why cars with a VIN higher than mine are at the docks already.

I see. How did you get other VIN combos? Has anyone got a picture of what it should look like when "settled" in the past.
I sent and email to Karen/Stacey yesterday but haven't heard anything. Normally they have always replied to my emails in a couple of hours MAX and hope the our cars are making their way to Baltimore. It seems likely we could be on the same ship.

Check the first post, the last few numbers of the VIn are a running count. Also within WWL you can see the 'cargo id' of other cargo on ships, aka VINs for the Mustangs ;)!

I have seen the VIN decoder but it means I have to play around with the VINs to get right combo.
I tried a few VIN basically changing the number on mine either side but no luck. must not be GT's or fast backs.
The more it is delayed the more I can justify spending more money on mod parts lol
Cervini got in touch with me, they are sorting a quote out delivered to UK. I have asked them to use the slowest longest cheapest shipping method. Lets see what they come up with. I really what that hood... may have to keep it a secret from my family until it shows up on the door (by then it will be too late to do anything about:lol
ill get a GT350R Carbon Fibre replica wing from the place you mentioned ;)

The vin has a check number in it and its a really convoluted way of working it out dependant on set values and position of the numbers.
WWL site has a search cargo ID feature that accepts wild cards.
Search for: 1fa6p8 for all mustangs or use the % button.
I used: 1fa6p8%f&h53% for all mustangs in the 300000's (at the moment there are 13 showing)

Thanks for that.
It seems COTUS is the best option now. I used a VIN (1FA6P8CF9H5300340) from one of the cars that's been received at the terminal and the COTUS status is in transit.
I agree that ETIS is as updated as its gonna get for us now. Next update will likely come through the dealer but if you keep checking COTUS you will know before him.

After so advise if anyone can help?
After checking COTUS the information has changed, the 'in order processing' originally said 02-07-17 but now it's changed to 02-27-17 and my ' in production' is still showing the original date of 02-10-17 and so is ETIS,
ETIS was settled on 03-09-17 and have not had any information updates as yet. Checked on past COTUS vin's and they all seem to be the same apart from what mine is showing, I've email Karen for an update but have not Had a reply as yet,
This could mean absolutely nothing but would be good to know,

I just put all of the 13 VIN's in ETIS and all the cars seem to be headed towards Poland/Germany (owners handbook is in polish mostly with one in german) Also, all cars are LHD RWD. All cars were built on the 22/23/24th of Feb. This may also explain why some VIN's which were created after ours were built before ours.
Maybe they will do a batch of RHD cars soon through the upfitters? maybe that's what is taking so long? It took them 3 weeks from the build date to being waiting at the terminal.
Mine was built on the 3rd of march (2nd march blend date) so hopefully on the 23rd of march the car will be at the terminal.

It's not recognising my VIN either. I think there is something fishy going on with ETIS.
Regarding your VIN and it looking like a basic GT. Ford initially screwed up my order by putting in saddle leather. Luckily I had got in touch with Karen/Stacey to confirm my order and picked this up. I also made sure I confirmed this once I got my VIN. Have you used COTUS?
