Monday the 18th

Makes sense...the plant tour this week won't have the line running, but supposedly partially completed cars will be viewable.

Dealer order visibility.

FYI This is not my unit, just our first unit ordered for stock.
Mine will be a convertible and I will happily wait till March for it when hopefully roads are nice enough( No snow , now salt)

My dealer says they have (2) cars with a Code 7 which means waiting to ship. LOL, but when he went into COTUS and put the VIN# in it shows the cars to be built on September 9th.

I ordered mine last week and the dealer told me that production was pushed back until September. They showed me a document from Ford stating so. I am in no hurry.

Two different dealers had the same information when I was calling today.

I went to cotus and searched all the vin numbers for a GT premium from 0001 (Barret Jackson car) up to 1150. I found quite a few, probably 40 or more that have vin numbers assigned. The only car showing "in production" is 0001 but it's been there for several days now. I am going to check throughout the day and see if any of them have a status change. The ones I found are a very small pool but you never know. I will post here if I find anything.

It's happening!!!

Yay

So production stated today, but how many pre-poduction cars have been made?

All those functional cars we've seen around the globe; 100? more / less? What do we think?

Would this be normal for every new car made by a large manufacturer? Or has this significant model warranted more than normal?

Has anyone's status changed in COTUS? Mine still isn't being found
Ordered July 28

I would say with all of Ford's manufacturing preparation stages (TT, PP, MP1, etc.), they've probably produced at least 300 vehicles. Whether or not they actually show off all of those vehicles is a different story. I'd assume most of the pre-production vehicles go to various departments within Ford for testing/verification. They'll be ramping up production so don't expect 600+ units a day the first week, but I think they'll start hitting their stride in 2-3 weeks barring any major production issues. This new design I'm sure has warranted extra care in the pre-production stages.
