I'm not from Chicago, but about 150 miles NE of you in Michigan.
I have seen a total of 2. Both GT's. And beleive me, I look for them.
It's a bummer.

I'm from Chicago, I just got mine February 25th. On the street, I've only seen one other one. The reason why I have not been out with mine alot is the weather has been nasty. This past Sunday was great, and I was out all day!!!!!!!

I'm in the far NW burbs (Lake in the Hills). I've had mine since November 11th and unfortunatly have to drive it even in weeks like this one. I have seen a few but not a lot between my house and Schaumburg where I work.

I live near Wrigley Field and I take the train to work because I work downtown. and when the weather is bad I use my fiance's Jeep. The weather is bad so I can't drive it now. If I did not have it the weather would probably be 90 degrees and sunny.

From: Chicago
I am getting my car today. I live in the Suburbs of Chicago. I saw a Silver GT parked near Rush and State with the area between the taillights painted black a couple of weeks. The car also looked to have exhaust on it.

Chicago here. NW side. My GT has been spending most of the winter in the garage, except an occasional sunny day. I've had mine since November. I've seen several v6's one at Division and Central of all places, and only one other GT in Barrington on my way to the Volo museum.

I'm in Buffalo Grove. Which dealer did you guys order from? I ordered at Wickstrom Ford in Barrington. Of course I ordered a Vert and I think most of you have/ordered a Coupe. When I went to order my Vert there were about 5 GT's on the lot ( I think 4 were sold) and a couple of v6's. I actually saw a Black GT Convertible last week sitting in a spot next to IHOP on BG road and Lake Cook. Made me jealous as heck. I wanted to hunt down the dude and find out which dealer he ordered from.

I ordered mine from Victor Ford in Wauconda. If I wanted a Salene they had a few in stock when I ordered, but didn't have the cash for that, LOL
So far the guys at Victor have been great.
I also spoke with Sessler (wanted to charge above MSRP) and Woodfield (sales guy never called me back)
I am glad I went with Victor though, ordered Feb 8th already built last week and on its way.

I am in Alsip, SW burbs. I have seen one grey GT in Chicago Ridge and one blue GT in the Beverly area. Mine was ordered 2-15 and was built 3-10. McCarthy Ford says GT should be here 3-21 I`ll believe it when I see it.
