Has anybody seen any in Florida? The local dealer says they should be here by the middle of the month!

Haven't seen any, my dealer said mid-October to start with, now looking closer to the 26th, said there was a production delay due to a headlight fluid shortage due to the hurricanes or something

Hey there, Jax FL here. None of the dealers have them, but they did pass by on the pony tour. I have been looking hard, I drove to the keys this weekend, and did not see any, but I thought i saw one so i did a U-turn on the turnpike, got pulled over but the guy let me off when i told him i turned around to chase down a new stang I thought i saw. I gave him this site's address so hopefully he will join in!
Anyway, Let me know if any of you guys are near jacksonville.
See ya!
and GO PRESIDENT BUSH!

Hey Tampa, FL here. Just to let you know. I was building my '05 GT on Ford's site and when done I searched the local dealers and found out that Ernie Haire in Tampa, FL has two GT's and 6 V6's on his lot. Gonna go check them out. It's only 30 minutes from me. Just thought you'd like to know.

West Palm Beach, FL. All dealers show them in stock online, but none have any! My dealer in Bartow, FL said all of our cars are sitting at the Railhead in Flatrock, Michigan. If you have one on order, you can check with your dealer to possible see either under status or delivery date that the location is 5P which is the Flatrock railhead. All the cars coming into Florida at some point pass through Tampa. I was in Tampa on Monday and drove by the railhead there. None to see and I asked the guard there and he said "none yet, there delayed." My dealer called me today to tell me that my car delivery date in his system went from 10/14 to TBD. This STINKS

I'm currently in GREENLAND - there are NO Mustangs up here either! A few dog sleds though.

And ............ GO BUSH.

I am in Orlando FL, and I orderd my Stang 9/20 and was given estimate of 8 to 10 week which would put it around Thanksgiving weekend. Also I noticed a AD by FORD that due to the Hurricanes FL residents will get $750 for purchase of their new car as a relief fund if their car was damaged. Anybody know what kind of proof is required for this..

I live in Tampa and ordered a silver w/ red leather from Bill Currie Ford. He showed me in there system where they have 18 coming, but all are already sold. Good thing I ordered mine from them first. It was due in on Tuesday, but he said it will be here this week. Can't wait! They're going to take pics of it for me coming off the truck and before they "dealer prep" it.
