Pulled the trigger on a Torch Red 07 GT today!
Finally found the time (and decided on colors and options) to go down and order my 2007 GT Coupe this morning!
I went with the Torch Red GT Premium Coupe with 5-speed manual, 3.55 gears, dark charcoal interior, IUP, PTP, satin dash, Appearance Pkg, Comfort group, Side airbags, 64W 18" polished wheels, anti-theft, and wheel locks.
Dealer told me 8-10 weeks and I saw a priority 10 on the order sheet so I'll wait and see! He said once the order gets entered into the system and Ford sends back the official VOC he's send me a copy next week. I did get a printout that said Vehicle Order Confirmation but he said that's not the real VOC until Ford assigns a number.

Yes, I plan to update my order as it progresses along and it will be interesting to see how they progress. Mine was given a priority code of 12.
I've been very pleased with my dealer so far so I hope that will continue with a quick delivery.. We'll see.
I also live in Washington State, the Seattle area, so that will make it even more interesting. They'll probably ship on the same rail car..

Say, is it Torch Red in here or is it just me?

So I'm not sure of its exact arrival. The salesman is keeping me posted. I've been so busy I haven't had the spare time to get anxious about it

The funny thing is it is completely true. I've always enjoyed having toys (especially motorcycles) my whole life, there is no place you could draw a line and say: "This is where Tres started his adulthood"- LOL!

C'mon guys. What Mid-life crisis. I'm driving my torch red 05 GT vert right now. My 2nd 05. First was torch red coupe deluxe 5 speed (Dec 04). Kept it two months - ordered the vert = received it two months later (Apr 05). Now 15 months later (Jul 11) ordered the 07. I guess I ordered the 07 for my 59 b-day present. I tell everyone that "yes it's mid-life but not quite a crisis yet - NO TICKETS. Enjoy - Can't wait for Aug 21/

I am responsible, do my job, save for retirement, pay my bills, etc so I choose to buy my toys and enjoy them.
