Ordered = June 5

ETA = August 23

Apart from universal events like scheduled downtime, because of all the many moving parts that include a given dealers' allocations to the specific week any given dealer's remaining allocations may be slated for build, almost no amount of information about ANY quantity of orders is likely to provide any kind of reliable insight into how much sooner or later any OTHER order is likely to be built, let alone shipped, let alone delivered.

It's just not a companywide FIFO process.

You can check out "My Garage", but the answer is yes. I have several FRPP kits to instal that'll be picked up with the car. I may have Ford install the Power Pack due to warranty issues (which a joke cause it's pretty much just a flash), but I'll do all the rest of it. I ordered the new GT500 15" brake kit, cooling ducts, trans scoop, and the adjustable handling pack. Of course, probably not that first weekend. That very first day or two will be take my boy for a ride, and some pix.

My first track event will likely be at Summit Point, WV in August.

That's crazy! It just doesn't seem right.

Nice !!!!
Can't wait for the pics !! Deysha PM'd me late yesterday and said mine was put out for shipping on Thursday, with an ETA of 6/27. I was really hoping that mine was in the same shipment as yours, since they were built the same day and shipping to the same general area.

Oh well, I might take a drive to my dealer tomorrow just to look around....just in case it possibly arrived early.

Good luck on the shipping Cobra. I believe shipping is the black box that no one understands. I'm on ETA number 3 and the car only needs to ship 36 miles. There are cars that were put out the same day as mine that are in Florida now, yet mine still sits at 1 International Drive. Deysha sent me a PM on Friday saying my new ETA is 6/23. Since the dealer isn't open on Sundays, I don't know if they just drop the cars somewhere on the lot or how they do that. Hopefully my dealer calls Monday morning with good news. Best of luck to you, hope your car is there next week.

Congrats to those of you who got your cars in or who will be getting them soon! It's making me impatient for mine to arrive on 7/12 (already delayed a week, please no more!) but I also feel the pain for those of you who ordered before or close to me who won't get their car built before the shutdown. The whole process is crazy...when I ordered back in April I fully expected to have my car by now
But I guess I should be happy that the car has been built, released by the plant and awaiting delivery load up hearing some of your stories. (Thanks to Deysha for all her spot on information!) Does anyone know if it gets transported by rail first then by truck? My window sticker says convoy but not sure (I am in NH).

So today was ETA #3 to the dealer and again EPIC FAIL. Since the car didn't show once again, I decided to go on a reconnaissance mission to Ramp 51. Low and behold, I found my beauty sitting on the lot right by the fence. Security wouldn't let me on the lot to take pics, but he was nice enough to go down to the car and verify the VIN for me. Sure enough, it was my baby. Security did let me go down the fenceline and snap some pics from the outside. Here is the beautiful Lyla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Auto Port Ltd., it is only 36 miles to my dealer. Since you seem incapable of delivering my car, there will be a long discussion tomorrow morning about my dealer coming to pick her up or she can stay there.

Very Nice Cobrajg! I think we have all been waiting so long that we have accumulated mods to install once we get our stangs.

Thats one bad *** snake! Is that a glass roof? That's awesome that you found it on the lot at the factory. Hang in there man. The manager at my dealer told me the hold up with a lot of there cars was a shortage in rail cars. Maybe your case is similar and there is a shortage of trucks to deliver cars locally.

I agree, and I call . I'm hitting my dealer up for more discount. I'm not just paying for a product, I'm paying for an on-time delivery. My loss of time driving my summer car in the summer is their loss too.

She's a beauty! It's so sad, all those ponies caged up and waiting to be taken their homes.
