2013 Ordered/Built/Delivered Thread

Thanks for the replies guys. I almost feel guilty for getting her after only a month of waiting while so many of you guys are being tortured. She's already dirty from riding around soggy, post-hurricane New Jersey, but I'll fix that soon. Yes, it is stone interior, which I think is gorgeous in its contrast to all the black trim. I still can't get over the endless supply of torque; I feel like I don't even need to downshift to accelerate! I'll get some more pics once I switch to the winter wheels (GT500s) and get her cleaned up. Thanks again Deysha for your help!

No problem, 1992chpb4c. We are upgrading the plant’s paint shop with an environmentally friendly 3-Wet paint process. The 3-Wet process, which Ford is rolling out across more than 15 assembly plants globally, allows three layers of paint to be applied one after another while still wet, with less manual intervention, resulting in a superior product created with fewer pollutants and less expense. This said, I say both, guys. Now, from the article, the process will be implemented as soon as the plant reopens.

From the article you linked to, it looks like the new paint process won't be implemented until the Fusion goes into production in 2013. Have you heard anything that says it will be operational when the plant reopens on Nov 26th? I would like to know what paint process will be used on my car.
Do you know when the order banks close for the 2013 Mustangs?
Thanks

Mine fiiiiinally came in !
I'm pis.......d off because one of the hood strip has bubbles and not sticking, and look at the side stripe on the passenger door...
Now the dealer will re-order some stripes, but it culd take 2-3 weeks
You guys won't believe how dissapointed I was about this thing !

Dealer says it came in like that, but that's hard to believe !!!!!
Looks more like pressure washer issue to me. Maybe the stripe was not completely stuck ???
But in any case I'm stuck with this for a couple of weeks....

Yes, BluehazeGT. It’ll reopen on 11/26/12.
You’re very welcome, Midol_AXP.
It should be implemented when the plant opens, Snoppy49. The order banks closed last week on 10/31/12.
Thanks, tlbcobra! I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
Oh my! Glad to know your dealer is getting this taken care of for you, Dineau.

That is horrible! Those stripes look weird to begin with, maybe cause of the transparency? I hope they get it handled correctly for you!!

Thanks! Yep, red interior too! And since this is the fun weekend car, it'll be in the garage under a cover a lot, so hopefully I won't have to clean it ALL the time, just most of the time...
