2016 GT ordered
First post here, so excited, ordered a 2016 GT Premium with the performance pack on February 20th. My only issue is that I contacted the dealership today and they said it's showing unscheduled clean. Should it take this long to get a vin and be scheduled for build?

Congrats and you chose the fastest color! Look up a Deysha on this forum she can track your car for you.

Good choice.
RR is becoming my new favorite color on both S197's and S550's. Yesterday I was coming back from the gun range and ahead of me was a '13/'14 GT 'convert in RR. It had a GT500 spoiler like mine with black wheels and it snapped my neck getting a look at it. My first thought was how much easier it must be to keep clean.

Yeah I've had 2 white mustangs before so I thought I'd change it up lol. I've send Deysha a message a few days ago but it looks like she hasn't been on here since January so I won't hold my breath.

I didn't realize she's been off the site for that long? Maybe one of our MODS knows why or if there is another contact?

Come to think of it, there don't seem to have been many posts about warranty, dealer, or delivery issues lately. Usually that's when she chimes in.

First the plant has some weeks throughout the year that are idle due to plant maintenance or they are doing a build that week on convertables instead of coupes. When I ordered mine the first week nothing was updated. The second week, the build order was confirmed clean. Into the third week I had a vin number. On the 6th week it was built. 7th week it was shipped. 9th week I took delivery. Be patient it will come!!

Hi - I ordered mine in January and I literally just got my VIN this week. They gave me a date of April 18th, but couldn't tell me whether or not that was expected delivery or expected production start. I agree, it is a little frustrating waiting over 8 weeks without hearing anything until now. I tried using that online tracker and my VIN doesn't show me anything yet.

The time varies by a lot of things. I ordered mine at the end of January (GT Premium PP with every option but Security and Recaros (gotta have cooled seats in AZ)). I took delivery a few days ago. When I ordered, dealer thought it would get here in early April but it came in a few weeks sooner.
Plant or transportation (parts in, cars out) can be affected by weather, parts could be delayed, and shipping is a lottery, the rail car can wait in yards along the way for a "spot", when it get to the last rail yard, offloaded cars can get blocked in by later arrivals if they don't get on a truck in time, etc..

I ordered every option except the performance package.... And the dealer thinks the original hold was because I ordered red seats. Who knows. Just glad I'm not the only one

Nope. I already have my car ordered later than yours (last day in Jan) and it has the Redline interior. The dealers have to just say or speculate some reason without really knowing because they are embarrassed to say the truth: they don't have a clue. LoL
