Dude, looks great. Thanks for being the test case.

More pics, please!

 

Sweet! Mine are on a truck somewhere in-state; cant wait.

 

Shant, that color looks AWESOME, even from the night shot. I can't wait to see some shots in the bright sunlight.

 

You know, I'm not too fond of the sound. Too quiet for me. I should have stuck to the roush which is more obnoxious. Anyone interested in borlas with 25 miles on em pm me.

 

Thanks Jeff! The ride in today was amazing. Even traffic was a thrill. Shifting is stiffer and not as notchy. And the track pack susp is so nice. I will try to call you today on lunch. I got home around 9:30 lastnight.. There were some hiccups at the dealer.

 

Shant, Congrats Dude. Now I need some more pics. So get out there and get 'em. I'm still waiting on the Wifey's ride, but I know it's getting closer to home. As of now we're at the 05/02/ETA.

 

I should get my vin this week. I really don't understand how Ford does business I placed my order on 2/9 and am getting nowhere, its like Ford doesn't care about you or your car it might be time to go to the dark side. In any event can someone give me info on how to check on build date and delivery date once I have the vin. Any help anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated, down in the dumps waiting

 

Hi Deysha, any idea what state my car is in today?

 

Hi Deysha,

I sure could use some good news waiting on build info since 2/9, see many people getting their cars who ordered weeks after me. What gives with Ford do they not want customers?

Thanks

 

I could use an update too

I placed my deposit on 2/1.

 

Thanks Jim. Here is another iPhone pic for now. I am going to detail her tonight then bust out the pro camera gear.

Edit. Sorry for the double pix. Don't know how to erase it on the iPhone.

 

Hmm, don't see many people that don't like borla s type, could you provide
some more info why its not up to your liking?
would like to know,and does it have a nice loud idle V8 sound to it compared to stock?

 

I'm right there with you guys.. I don't want to sound like I am complaining, but I agree that the process could be improved.. I just don't agree with the fact that a dealer can order a car with a 10 priority, and then change it after they receive the VOC. Especially with the Internet these days, us customers know what is really going on and it does get frustrating when Ford knows that there is a customer behind a retail order that sits idle for months (which is exponentially compounded when some are receiving their order in as little as 4 weeks). But, in the end it's only a car and I won't lose any sleep over it!

 

Dont get me wrong, I love the tone. They are just not loud enough for me hehe. They are deep and the cold start was amazing this morning. I may leave it on since it's a hassle swapping them again considering my swamped schedule.

 

I do not know which is worse. Your situation, waiting on a build, or mine, GT Premium built on 3/20 and STILL sitting in the factory parking lot with some sort of hold. No one can tell me when the hold will be removed and the GT shipped. GRRRRRRRRRR!

 

Mine was built on 4/3. Last update I got (last week) was that it was still waiting to be shipped. The saga continues....

 

Yes. Ford builds cars, hundreds of thousands of cars a year, but they actually don't want people to buy them and to make SURE they don't, they pick on people who take the time to order their car specifically a certain way and hold those cars back JUST so they can sit and cackle maniacally while they see the customers they DON'T want go elsewhere.

It's been said as many times as people have ordered cars: the ordering/build/delivery process is anything but straightforward. Their allotment system is confusing, even to the salesmen who sell these cars. If you expect the process to be like any other order, such as a dvd from amazon, you're going to be disappointed. I assure you, Ford has no desire to **** off their customers. They are doing what they need to do to the cars so that when they get to the customers, they will be what the customers want. Would you rather they rush you the car before doing a QC check on it, and find a fault with the transmission--which you find yourself by having it start skipping gears on you? My dealer is a rather small one in the Houston Region--one of the largest in Ford's network, according to my dealer's regional manager. I probably am not going to get the veryveryveryveryvery first GT500 that comes off the line. I'm ok with that, because I know it will get to me when it gets to me, after Ford has made **** sure it is a vehicle worth selling to a customer.

Try a little patience.

 

I'm probably going to get the 10 x very first 2013 gt500. Waiting patiently.

 

Wow! That blue looks amazing.

 

Agreed, that's a gorgeous color.
