Anyone here on this forum with an April 25th build date receive their Mustang's yet? I ordered mine from Sunnyvale Ford in the Bay Area. It was shipped 5/1, and it seems strange that it takes a month to ship a car. I was first told I would receive my car 5/14, then it became the last week of May. It's Wednesday and still no news whatsoever, all my dealer tells me is "any day now"...

Mine was build April 28th, shipped via truck on May 4th, by train on May 5th, arrived at dealer in Shawnee, KS on May 9th. So from build to arrival, it was 11 days.

Man...I guess it just takes that long for it to ship to the west coast. Still, it's pretty ridiculous that you can track the shipment of a small package with UPS, and yet I can't get any info on a 3000+ pound car.

That was my build week and I so feel your pain. I am in Seattle and my GT is sitting on the railcar in the offload area about 5 miles from my dealer. It left Flat Rock on May 2 and arived here in the Seattle area last Sunday the 22nd. 20 days is a bit much. I am really hoping to have it by the weekend.

Thanks for the support. I saw the car today! The dealer called as soon as the truck rolled in and I got to run over and sit in it and hear the engine run while they were prepping it. These things are absolutely stunning. I will be able to pick it up Friday morning.

Check my sig, mine was built April 25th and was at the dealer May 3rd. It had a couple of glitches, so I only picked it up the following week.

Mine was built on April 28 and delivered May 10 to CA (Bakersfield). I'm not sure if it went the whole way by rail, but I DO know it came by way of Mira Loma (Riverside). I believe there is a rail facility there (intermodal).
