And it was a controlled delay.
They seem to be making their way out now

I was checking all the Ford Dealer inventories in the San Antonio and Austin area. Tons of V-6s. Didn't count but had to be close to 100. Only saw 2 GTs and they were both autos. Not one GT manual in the whole San Antonio/Austin area.

Probably just a oddity to this part of the country

They were holding production on the V6 manual trans. I was told by the dealer where I live that they wouldnt be releasing them until after the first of the year. He didnt say why, but I assumed it was for marketing reasons. To make along story short, I recieved a call three days ago telling me that the car I had ordered only a short week before and wasnt expecting to see for another 6 weeks was in, and being prepped for me as we spoke. So yeah, they're being released now :0)
