Is it today?
We gotta replace the alero and have given much thought to a Tungsten 06 with pony package. I will order this time and not get a lot lizard.

 

Would Ford really do that on Friday the 13th?

 

Y not?
Long as Jason Voorhies doesn't make an appearance.....

 

I do not know but I placed an order for an 06 on 4/15 and Ford accecpted it 5/3, then I got this email
"Good mornng Kevin,

I just wanted to let you know that the factory got back to me this morning to confirm that they've added the 18" Polished Aluminum Wheels to your order. " Sounds good.

 

I thought it was the 16th, for the offical date.

 

the date on the email was the 12th

 

at 9:28 am

 

I heard it was the 16th, my birthday!

 

This is from the 5/3/05 email

Then this " I'll be happy to change the wheels for you to the 18" Polished Aluminum Wheels. As mentioned, the price of the wheels are $250.00 so we'll add that to the Total Selling Price of your car" 5/9/05

 

Are there any pics of the new 18" wheels ?

 

I forced the system with a Tungsten GT order the other day and received a DORA back. Clean order with red accent and IUP.

So you can order any time, just no pricing as of yet.

 

Any idea when we would be able to order just the 18" rims?

 

I wonder what the tire size will be on the 18s.

Fritz, Silver "05" GT Coupe IUP and everything .... on the train, eta 5/20.

 

I would say there is a 99.9% chance they will be 255/45/ZR18's.

 

Will Pricing come out on the 16th? Can somebody post the 'Price List' or give it to Brad so he can post it? The last 'Price List' we have on this site is from 2/18/05 if I'm not mistaken.

 

What would be the approximate delivery date? I know its a loaded question with all the 05 issues but would one expect to see it in July or are you looking at fall? I am still c/u and my dealer has no news so its looking more and more like 06 for me. I dont mind an 06 as I prefer the the Tungsten but I dont want the darn thing in the fall.

 

I have fallen in love with a SS manual with IUP... But its churched up and has no shaker.

There is a Torch red used 05 on the lot, butttttttttttttt It has parchment interior. I can get it SUPER cheap. colors don't go together IMO.

 

Really? I think tan interiors go beautifully with reds. Just not tan tops.

 

The silver screwed it up a little bit. Its being offered to me for 18k but it has 13k miles on it.

This un ain't mine. Eleanor is mine all mine, and I wouldn't give her up for anything. I am buying my hubby one now. He loves Ellie, but he flat out refuses to drive her ever cause as he says she's mine.

Prolly lookin at a tungsten 06 like I said though. I took his yellow, silver is his second favorite.

I just went to the dealer and got yelled at for cripin about Ellies injuries........Hadda have her and now shes broke and you are complaining...

 

The DORA I have shows 235/50ZR18 tires
