Well, it's been a long and hard journey but I finally picked up my car last night. I found out that my car reached its final rail destination on Sunday so yesterday I went to the rail yard to see if I could see my baby...NOT HARD TO DO! The only yellow car on the entire lot...crazy timing because I was there blankly staring for about 15 minutes when my car was loaded on a transport truck. UNBELIEVABLE! I screamed and called the dealership and scheduled a 6pm pickup! I ordered the upgraded rims but Ford didn't put them on...long story...so right now I'm stuck with the standard rims while the dealership orders the upgraded rims through parts. It's everything I expected and more...
My car came with 26 miles on it and I found out that my car was on "quality hold" because of that whining noise that I've heard other owners complain about, something with the axle that they needed to fix at the plant, I'm just glad it was caught and taken care of.
I had my windows tinted to 20% today, OH MY! I spoke to the owner of the tint shop and he said that they just cover the sensor on the door to make the door think it's closed so the windows will roll all the way up. He said not to roll the windows all the way down for 2 days but the occasional up/down from opening the doors won't damage the tint.
Am I the first member with a Screaming Yellow GT??

Here's my baby!

very nice. No iup or leather???
No IUP or leather...I didn't really like the aluminum dash and I figured that the outside was so bright I wanted to have the inside the exact opposite, conservative and dark. Also, I've never been a fan of leather because I'm always cold and I can't bear the seats in winter, and burning my legs wearing shorts in the summer wasn't my idea of fun either.

Nicole Great looking car.

If you don't mind giving the last 6 numbers in your vin I would appreciate it. I was built 9/18 & still waiting.

Also, how did you find out about an axle problem? Do you know exactly what had to be repaired?

Thanks
105101, built on 9/24.
I don't really know much about the axle problem except the factory report said whining and they ordered some sort of part to fix the problem. I don't have the paperwork about it because the dealership kept it in my file.

Nichole:

Beauty looking car! I know your not keeping the bullits,but boy do they ever make the yellow look like its ready for the race track.Maybe you could somehow convince your sales manager to give you good deal on them,seeming how they messed up your order to being with? Would be nice to have extra set just for the winter.

You took the word right out of my mouth concerning the leather seats! everyone keeps asking why i didn't order leather and they never seem to understand...congrats on your new car...can't wait to get mine!
