For all the Arizona stang fans, they arrived at the Hadley Automotive Depot in El Mirage late last night. Check your Dealerships this week.

 

Great! Can't wait to get mine.
Hey SixtySix, I ordered my 05 Mustang GT from Sanderson Ford as well, when where you told you would get yours. I was only told mine would come in sometime in November

 

Mine won't get here before December. They expect it to be pulled for production in 2 weeks.

 

It's about time! I was hoping we would see one or two arrive this week (hopefully more). Bell Ford has a Satin Silver GT w/ ICAP and Shaker 1000 that is supposed to come in this week. We'll see if they call when it arrives (they're supposed to).

My build date is today!!

Don't know when it will come in, but I ordered at Five Star in August.

 

I was told today that some dealership in Peoria has a Legend Lime GT, can't for the life of me remember the name though. No matter, that was yesterday so I'm sure it's gone by now. It was some no-name dealer too, so probably went for over MSRP.

:bang: If these cars don't start showing up in quantity I'm going to go buy a Honda Civic. Big huge exhaust tip, yellow windows, fake nitrous blowoff valve, take out the seats and door skins to lighten the car, then go run it at Firebird for a smooth 16.9 at 83 Mph. That'll show Ford for making me wait like this.

I called the earnhardt ford dealership on baseline road (even though i live by the one on ray) and they are expecting 2 gt's this week, a red and a lime one i believe. Im tryin to get the details of my x-plan together, and hopefully they will except it, either way id still get one just 23,600 sounds better than 26,500

 

I performed drive-by's on Pioneer Ford (75th Ave & McDowell) and Pioneer West Ford (Litchfield Park Rd and I-10), and no 05s. I'll call Bell Ford tomorrow morning and see what's happening. I'm ready to ditch work for a while and drool!

Sweet...if you guys are getting them in Arizona then it'll be pretty soon till they start showing her in Cali.

 

I don't know if I'd count on Earnhardt's getting them anytime soon. I walked the lot this past weekend. See this post for details:

Called Five Star last night (anonymously) to see if they would have any floor models. They said for sure next week. I asked for a specific date, and they said, "we don't know. Ford hasn't given us anything concrete."

Sound familiar?!?!?

 

Well since they have been sighted at the "yard" we know they're here. It wouldn't surprise me if they try to keep them under wraps until the upcoming weekend.

 

i went to the one off of ray rd. yesterday and the salesmen in the "check in gate" thing you have to drive through had no idea when they were getting one.

 

What the heck kinda username is that

 

I suppose "..." is better than being called "ellipsis".

 

I live in Tucson and im soo excited i just got a call from my dealer that my 05 black gt will be here tomarow for pick up. It's supposedly on a truck with 7 V6s. Itll be the first gt in tucson

 

Congrats JT!

Just make sure to post pics when you get it!

 

Congrats! I hope it really arrives!! I don't think I'm willing to drive to Tucson to see one though, so hopefully they'll also be in Phoenix too!

What, do you doubt my report?

2005 Torch Red GT "loaded" with a 5 speed manual at Sanderson Ford.























This car is NOT for sale, It's actually still property of Ford, it's going to an auto show.

All I can muster up to say is WoW! Pictures don't do it justice....they nailed this car!

Some clarification on the Shaker 1000. It was reported that the system doesn't have subs in the doors. It does, and they're 8in subs at that. In the upper door area are the pair of component speakers, a 5.25 mid driver and a tweeter.

The system does sound nice and clear, but defineately needs some seat time to dial it in to your own preference. Blows the Mach systems away by a mile.....is it worth it....I dunno, that's up to each individual, you can get a lot of stereo for $1,200 bones! I'm still getting it!

I'm 6'2" 250 lbs and as a driver felt very comfortable in it. The fit and finish to me was above average, didn't seem cheap at all.

The back seat....well if you're my size...It's not happening. We tried to put the front seat all the way back as a joke...and it was a joke. I had to contort my head to fit under the ceiling. I think for someone shorter it would be comfy as the back seats do create a nice deep pocket for you to sink into, but you have to be 6' or under.

Since this is a car that's going to a show and is still property of Ford, I couldn't drive it, but I started it up and gave it some idle juice... sweet sound. It reminded of the sound of my 66' minus the exhaust leaks I always had with the Tri-Y headers

 

have to say great job on the picture taking.. everytime i see that red.. i really like it in some pics.. an in others it seems to bright (lipstick).. cant make up my mind.. what do you all think about that color red?
