Thought, today was the big day. My car came in and I almost cried. somehow it
got built without, the 1UP, red leather seats, and the spoiler is missing.
I checked the DORA it was ordered correct. I had talked to the regional coustmer
relations pres. last month and he listed my options correctly. How did this happen? has
the factory messed-up.
Well no nanners for me.

I hope this is the only one this happens to.


THANKS FORD

Has the serial number been checked? Wow, this is the first one I've heard of with this much of a problem.
Very sorry to hear this!

bill,
Are you sure that is your car? Maybe the dealer is just confused and yours is still on the way

Hope it works out for you.

I'm sorry to hear that. Ask the dealer about having the options added at Ford's cost.

Hey, but at least you have an 05!!!

The interior can be swapped out and the spoiler can be added. Some here have been able to add the IUP also. I would push the dealer and Ford to get it resolved using the car that was delivered. At least you would have a handle on when to expect the final product.
This is really a bummer and I guess everybodies nightmare.

That has really got me worried now. I ordered almost exactly the same car, and my build week was alos the week of 4 April. And with news that almost 7,000 orders will not get built, I am concerned that there will be little chance to have a new car ordered and built correctly. My car is scheduled for arrival next week. This os going to be a nerve wrecking weekend for sure. Sorry they screwed your order up so badly.

Sorry that happened to you. I'd make them reorder it. Like Stangfriik said take it as high up as you have to so you get your car made the way it was ordered. You should still get an 05 if they make it a priority 0. Have them deliver it to your dealer by truck instead of rail. Mine took 10 days to get to St. Louis on the rail. Oh and tell them you want a plan price for your wait.

Keep us posted on what happens. I feel for ya.

Sorry to hear that. It really comes down to how bad you want the red seats. If you can live without them, get the IUP and spoiler added free, and you will have your car now. If not, definitely get them to order it again. They will be able to sell a black GT so quick, I'm sure they don't care.

That stinks. Make them order you another car and have them pick up the tab on something for making you wait. Sounds like the biggest screw up to date. Sorry for your trouble.

If it was truely ford's error, your dealer should be able to get the parts at no cost to you, it is just a simple matter of adding iup, and chainging the seat covers + door panels + spoiler. Talk to your dealer, you have waited long enough for you car.
