ETIS and Window Sticker Process

[Mustang GT007]

Mine was built same day and did not make it on the Salome either, so you're not alone...

Hopefully we make it on the next one?
Fingers crossed.

Just a question to those who had taken delivery. How long did you car stay with your dealership before you take delivery?

My car was delivered to the dealership last Wed and I managed to get a look at it. Looked awesome but until now I still get no confirmation on when I can take delivery.

Last I heard was that they are doing detailing with the other cars etc.

This wait is the worst compare to waiting for NSC, then VIN, then to the port, then on the ship, then the arrival on port, then to PrixCar yard, then the delivery to the dealship.

Mine was a week but thats only because the dealer had to tint the windows, color match paint and install the boot spoiler and fit the xforce cat back plus detail. I guess it also depends on the dealer.

Thanks for the info.

I am not getting anything done from my end.
Oh well, have to be annoying and keep on chasing them up.

Or prob they know my intention to RICE up my Mustang which is why they are holding up the delivery.

And agreed about the wait. Everything else was nothing compared to having the car at the dealer, its so close yet so far. Make it worse I spotted mine at the tinters and went for a sticky beak christ that was it then. I just wanted it more lol. But i saying that i have had it just under a month now and trust me its worth the wait. Every one that decides to get a mustang is very very lucky and will enjoy their prised beasty for many years to come. Its sad i know but every chance possible (at least once a day) a visit to the garage is in order to get the stang fix ;)

OK so delivery is mid next week. Kinda annoyed but at least I got a timeline.
Too many cars for them to deliver apparently.

How true are these words, 100%

Up until your VIN it is easy to coast along (At times you think it is hard, but you are yet to learn). Then the window sticker and then the build time arrives. As much as you try not to, you start tracking and then it starts. Tracking the train ride, at port, the ship etc etc. The last month is full of joy and pain. I am in my last couple of weeks before I see her for the first time, I am so f..king excited.

I am still to endure the trials of delivery and waiting still while the car is at my dealership.

I think every Mustang owner identifies with each other, to have and want a Mustang car is to wait. To be prepared to wait means we must be passionate otherwise we would buy another car. I reckon that what makes this forum different to others out there. Just a thought.

Still waiting here !!!

I 100% agree, my car is unloaded in 8 days at fremantle then the wait begins from dealer to me....This last bit is the hardest by far. It went like this

Order car: ...Happy Happy tell everyone...but you know its a long wait

You get your NSC number.:...woohoo stuff is happening wait is still long

You get a VIN: Wow this is good I can track it a bit more now and torture myself that bit extra.

Window sticker: geeze hang on this is really real, may not be a unicorn after all, AND they hide a little build date in the window sticker a bit Davinci coded.

SHE'S BUILT: Frankenstein is alive, you lay in bed at night picturing her somewhere at flatrock all alone crying for its papa...:cheers:

MIA: She disappears....cant find it, no one knows, trains come and go Nada, Zip, Nuttin.. :frusty: I call this the bermuda triangle bit..

THE BOAT RIDE: After wearing out the track and trace button on my Pc, all day all night for weeks (wife now things I'm a bit disturbed)....then BOOM....No longer does the red "No records found" appears but your VIN shows up as arrived...Several boats come and go (you cry a bit) then...Pheeeewwww it's on the boat my baby is safe and sound the journey will begin (you may even cry a little more)...you relax a little.. (at this point don't do weather checks etc because every typhoon, tornado etc anywhere in the world freaks you out)

THE BOAT RIDE 2 : did I mention just how slow the boat goes?

THATS ME UP TO NOW: Im waiting for a boat it's 8 days away then it's on my home soil, I then hassle the dealer daily ( I pictured just before I fall asleep at night some emergency tactical response group flying in taking charge and getting car from dock to dealer in 37 minutes) but I know this won't happen and in reality its wedged between 6 white ford Rangers going to a mining company that no one really cares about....sitting in the full sun covered in seagull shit from the overlarge Fremantle chip fed Gulls.. and I feel this is THE hardest part of the wait....Then it's off to the dealer where you hope some new 16 year old car cleaner whos drops his sponge in the dirt everytime a passing car hoots isnt washing "your" new Mustang. Then off for tint, please do that in 1hr without so much as pupic hair left on my car "please" then fit my plates "EXACTLY" how I told you...(praying they didn't miss the email about NOT fitting those giant black factory plate holders)....THEN you get that call

Darryn.....Your new mustang is ready to collect .....then you cry a little again...

Cant wait.
