So, MTAS PM'd me today to let me know that our dealer took in 4 mustangs today. I called my dealer and by that time he received 2 more. He took in all 6 on three different trucks. The bad news is that he didn't get mine in. I was under the impression that I ordered the first from him, then again, he might not have really known of any other orders. He received 4 GT's and 2 V6's. 5 of the 6 were sold. He figured mine should be in any day now considering the way he received this 6. Then again, who really knows?

..probably due to your rare color choice. The ones he receive I would bet were of the black, red and gray colors. Those are the most marketable and are probably being built in mass quantities.

You're correct with that! Those are the only colors he received! Good call!

I'm leaving work early tomorrow to go talk to my salesman JC (no, not Jesus lol) who called me at 10 this morning and told me about the cars finally showing up. Hopefully there will be at least ONE 5sp GT I can drive. If not, then to heck with it I'll go ahead and order the MG w/IUP/ICAP/Shaker500.

Dave, After I read your email, I called over there and he was just looking up my number to call me. What timing. John said all the salesman were like vultures around the cars. He hadn't a chance to drive one yet b/c they still had to go to prep. He said tomorrow he was going to track down the 1 car that wasn't sold and try to take it for a spin. If you go by there tomorrow, look for John and ask him where the HE double hockey sticks is David Beyer's car. He'll get a kick out of that cause he knows I'm pretty enthusiastic about it. I've taught him a few things about the ponies (due to this site). It's funny, I've almost always had a heads on things before he's called me (again, due to this site).

Did he have allocations to order your car. That's what happened with me. Iwas the first order back in July. But I just found out that he did not have the allocations to order mine. So it is sitting in the bank waiting. His first allocations will come in, then my order would have gone in. But I left him and found one coming sooner that I like.

169Stang-- I would be curious as to the VIN #'s of those GT's since there appears to be a pattern of the lower VIN #'s not being delivered. All say shipped 10/2 and that's where the story ends

See the post titled "Where is your Stang?" and everyone will see what I am referring to. Seems quite precarious to me. What are Ford &/or the dealers up to??
