My car began production 1/12. Shipped and delivered 1/20 to northwest Indiana. I would've gladly accepted some more QC time.

I would call Ford Performance and see what the latest status is on your car.

I plan to a little later today. I call about twice a week.

Mine was finished on Jan 4th with an ETA of Jan28-Feb3. It is supposed to get to eastern Iowa via rail. Ford Performance said there is no new info on it since being built (as of yesterday). There has been at least 1 car that I know of that was built a week after mine that already made it to the dealer that is about 90 miles from mine.

Mine sat at Flat Rock two weeks after production was complete (1/5-1/21), and before it was loaded onto a railcar. Then it moved to the rail interchange area in Valparais, IN. That was 1/22. As far as I can tell it hasn't moved from there, as of 1/26.
I believe it will be railed to Kansas City, then trucked to Omaha.
The ETA is 2/3-2/9.

From what I'm hearing the initial ETAs given when the cars are scheduled are fairly accurate. I don't know why they let a car sit around for two weeks before loading it on a transport, but from most of the reports from members here, it tends to show up right around the timeframe given when it's scheduled. I'm fully expecting mine to show up between 2/27 and 3/4 based on the delays reported by others. :shrug:

Well somehow mine bucked that trend. Mine went on a train this morning a day after being released.

Im guessing they wait to fill a train. So if your car is the first to go on, it might be awhile, if your car happens to be finished when its almost full it might not wait around very long. Seems to be faster going via convoy

Built-1-12
Released 1-14

I'm not sure why mine went via Rail. I had CONVOY on my sticker. I guess it's just a tossup.

Mine was built on 10/27 and released for shipping on 11/20. Got stuck on the rail yard in Lexington Kentucky for week and slowly made its way south from there. It then made 2 stops in SC before finally making it to the dealer on 12/3. Drove it home on 12/4.

Hi Bob,
That is odd. Your car must be bundled with other cars going somewhere else thus at a different interchange than mine was? Crazy logistics I guess. :headbonk:

Mine went like this:

In Transit - Arrived at Junction Point (Canadian National Railways ) - Gibson, IN - ETA Start Date Dec-08-2015 - ETA End Date Dec-10-2015

Then hit the Rail yard in Omaha Dec. 7
In Transit - Received - L-21 (Yada Enterprises Inc ) - Ramp 37, Omaha, NE - ETA Start Date Dec-08-2015 - ETA End Date Dec-10-2015

My dealer says they don't have access to the rail car numbers. That is a bunch of BS.

Funny thing is ford performance told me they could not see it, but I sent a text to the owner of my dealer and he had it
