Say a brief prayer...

[swedensky]

Lol.

So I ordered my Shelby February 10th through my dealership. We already had one scheduled but I altered the order slightly and just in time too. I was lucky enough to have the blend date come through for March 2nd and it has been done for two weeks now.

However, I sold our sister store's Shelby off of their showroom floor and I guess there was an "unspoken rule" that we are not allowed to sell each other's Shelby's unless we have one to replace it. Now the GSM of our sister store has declared the rights to our next one coming in :doh:

It is in Benicia right now (few hours drive) and is expected to show this weekend at the dealership. I've come up with a few good scenarios in my mind of how to get around it but just hoping I get this one and don't have to wait for the next one (we ordered a clone to mine after hearing they wanted this one, it's just further out).

Anyway, just a quick rant on a situation I can't help haha even though plenty of you have been waiting way longer. Sorry!

And we prayed...

Our Father, which art in Flat Rock,
Ford be thy Name,
Thy rail car come.
Thy pre-delivery inspection be done, in my town
As it is in your town.
Give us this day our daily 93 octane,
And forgive us our forum posts,
As we forgive those other forum posts,
And lead us not in to stop-and-go traffic,
But deliver us to track day,
For thine is the flat plane crank,
The power, and the Brembos,
For ever and ever.
Amen.

Strong! I didn't know you were getting a Shelby!

What are the specs?

I'm sure you got a hell of a deal if you went through with it.

I can't get the owner to give it to me for MSRP.

I got into a bit of situation with my boss and negotiated a deal out of it that makes it worth it. I wasn't planning on getting another car, or mustang at least but after driving the first one we got in I couldn't help it. Now I just need to make sure Golden1 still likes me lol.

I ordered white (of course!) stripe delete Tech pack.

Looking forward to some cruises though once I get all settled in!

Nice...no stripes and tech pack...aka naked with a hot tranny

The Ford's Prayer worked. They even loaded it correctly. Is that another one behind it, RR? Not loaded correctly.

 

[swedensky]

Race red, black ott, black roof track behind me.

Both loaded correctly.

Signing today when I get off

Traded it in, stock. Took everything off months ago and parted it out! Thanks!

His, mine, and our other two were all there, as well as a few more semi local ones!

Classified!

Lol, I paid more than I expected to - but I also believe the car is worth every penny I spent whether it goes to Ford, the dealer, or anyone in between. At the end of the day it's in my garage.

Good answer and congrats!
