Welcome to the wait club, Slade. I was planing on putting my 2000 Sebring convertible up for sale when my car was close to arriving. A guy I know in my neighborhood who new I had a new Mustang on order stops by wants to buy my Sebring for his girlfriend's daughter. Love THAT easy sale! Good luck on your process Slade.

Congrats! You are gonna love it.

Congrats! I ordered mine on the 3rd and it's gonna be a tough wait!
Keep us in the loop when you hear something.
I'd love to know what colors/options speed up or slow down a build. I did read that some believe that Ford is prioritizing EBs to get them out in the wild and generate interest in the engine, but I don't know if that's true.

It's sort of an unreal feeling. I was planning on ordering a 2016 but my daily broke again, and we're at a place where we could afford it. As the delivery date is getting closer it's become more of a reality. I don't think it will fully set in until it's parked out front of my house.

8 weeks doesn't sound like a long time, and the first 3 to 4 weeks is quick, it's the last 4 weeks that's killing me.

18" foundry wheels

Cool.
I had thought the only cars That had the 18 inch foundry wheels was the V6 w/ 051A convertible (& hardtop 201A).
But going to my dealer's lot tonight to see Deep Impact blue ( my color) for the first time in person I saw it was on a hardtop not a convertible, an EcoBoost Premium with the 18 inch foundry rims. They were listed as a separate option for $155.

Did you order the 18 inch foundry rims as an independent option for $155?

 

[Slade]

Yep, did order the foundry's as an option. Like the old school look...reminds me of my 67's. With x-plan I think it was $141.00 or so.

Thanks for the welcome all...It'll be one week tomorrow and I'm reading everything I can. Downloaded the Owner's Manual and have read it twice already...

 

[drbrian722]

I'll have to look up what foundry wheels look like as I elected to just stick with the stock wheels and perhaps come up with PP wheels for summer and the stock ones with snow tires for winter. @Slade, I'll see that and raise you! I've got v1 and v2 of the owners manual and have been split screening them to find what the differences are. [There is a small chance I'll obsess about this.]
In other news I'm officially in COTUSB but not COTUS yet. Very exciting!

 

[Slade]

Yep, you do have me beat...I didn't even know there were 2 versions! I got my deal and dealership #'s today so I'll be looking up COTUS today. Per the dealer I have a "partial VIN" whatever that is...

Here's the magnetic with foundry's....

 

[Slade]

Thanks CGT! I'm too excited to be this early in the process...if I wasn't already bald I'd be worried about losing some hair.

I did confirm I am in COTUS a minute ago..In Order Processing. I did get a priority 10 so I hope it will move right along.

(Showing my ignorance...I want to put my dates at the bottom of my posts...where do I go to put those in?)

 

[Slade]

Thanks! Headed there now....

Not a GT but..another pic to hold us over....
