How did you all do on pricing? I was waiting to go to the dealer until the inventory is built up up some. Curious on how close to invoice early buyers are getting.

Thanks.

Good job guys.


I don't think it will be here in 4 weeks, but probably before 8.

It's coming! Congrats!

I ordered mine Saturday and was lucky to get $800 off MSRP but taxes were about $200 less here too so like $1000 off MSRP. I was told it would be in the first week of December. I went to several Dealers today and all wanted MSRP + some.
I left them in a hurry.
GT Prem, IUP, Auto, Windveil Blue with Dark Charcoal Int.
Now all we have to do is wait.
Wish we could go forward in time.

P.S. The salesman was the Fleet Manager and also Lurks on this site.
He also order the same car as I did.

Under invoice? That's below dealer cost!. How were you able to get this deal?
A-plan is about $500 below but the dealer gets a refund from Detroit to make up the difference? :scratch:

Hey upstate thanks for the promo, but we're at $200 under not $300. Don't want to mislead anyone. By the way, PM'd you this morning.

yur1279, I'm at Van Bortel Ford in Victor,NY. Feel free to make the trip, just delivered a couple of your "neighbors", one from Bayshore, one from West Babylon.

Thanks for the info. And those are really my neighbors since those are towns on both sides of me.

You will be lucky if you see your car in 12-15 WEEKS !!

My personal order-out history ...

'94 Mustang ... ordered 4/30/94, delivered 7/7/94 (10 WEEKS)
'96 Windstar ... ordered 7/18/96, delivered 9/19/96 (9 WEEKS)
'98 Mustang ... ordered 2/21/98, delivered 4/29/98 (9.5 WEEKS)
'04 Mustang ... ordered 1/28/04, delivered 3/10/04 (6.5 WEEKS)

The '94 is probably the best comparison ... the mad "new model" order rush in the Fall of 1993 was probably similar to what is being experienced right now with the 2005. By the time I finally ordered mine in the Spring, it still took 10 WEEKS ... I'd guess the fall rush lead time back then was 15-20 weeks.

How can anyone think that 4-8 WEEKS is realistic for a 2005 ordered right after the Launch Celebration ?? My 2004 took 6.5 WEEKS with a $3000 rebate attached to it !! The new plant is not THAT much more efficient !!

WTH ... I know I posted here ...

weird ... i basically said that they are doing 20,000 cars a month, so all the preorders will be done in a month and a half, and 6-8 weeks is reasonable enough to expect your car.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! Starkey Ford in York Me. Order's in @ $500 over invoice on my V6 Premium coupe in Windveil Blue with charcoal cloth, auto, IUP (Indefinitely backordered GRRRRRR!!!) side air bags, antilocks, spoiler and white stripe. Total was $21.7K including the FDAF and gas. Dealer has no idea when the IUP allotment will free up so this order can be accepted but we figure Jan delivery.
