Won't be long now before you have that beauty.

I can't wait!

How are you liking your new ride? The more I see your color the more I love it.

Yep! Plan on getting a coat or two of wax on, and trips to the car wash each week.

Should make for some fun on fresh snow in parking lots.

Well I love staring at it!!! Literally two days after I ordered it My good ol doc said I have to have both hips replaced and wont be able to drive for several months after each replacement. Just had the first done last Friday and have to say I'll be back in her in a few weeks. Kinda blows just staring at it but like my wife said its good medicine for me to get off my a$$ so I can drive it.

Wow, talk about bad timing. I wish you a speedy recovery! Definitely great motivation to get on your feet and back behind the wheel!

This is the week for my build as well - Ruby, keep an eye out for a DIB GT Premium getting the Track Pack! Blend number 3928, 6 after JohnX's.

Deep Blue - may your recovery be as fast as your new pony...

Unfortunately the blend number on the window sticker does not correlate with the blend number that the plant uses....

However I have seen my car several times today and it should be rolling off the end of the line in an hour or so.

Also saw a few GT500s, and some other beautiful Mustangs.

I will never be able to get rid of this car.

That's cool you are there on the line, I watched a video of the production line the other day. I can only imagine what it was like.

Did they let you start your car?

It is awesome. My line of work has taken me into several production plants, the Mustang plant is still my favorite.

No, I didn't start it. But I can't wait to pick it up from the dealer!

That's cool,

I can't wait just ordered mine vin showed up last Thursday. I keep hitting the link for the window sticker.

Get some pics up. I went with the ingot silver. Did you see any of these being made what did you think of the color. Have only seen fusions and focus

That must have been an incredible day that you had. I hope it gets to you quickly.

Did you happen to see mine?

John, I didn't see yours. The VINs aren't clearly labeled like the rotation numbers are and the rotation numbers in production are different from what's on the window sticker.

I also probably would have swapped your Recaros for my standard seats, so consider yourself lucky.

I have also been at the plant and watched my mustangs being built, that is an awesome experience. Did you get any pics of your car being built? Did you see any fusions mixed in with mustangs?

Thanks for trying, and you are correct, I wouldn't have appreciated that "upgrade"!

I did confirm through Deysha that mine was completed on Monday 11/4 and is now awaiting shipment. ETA is now 11/28. I've been doing a little work in the garage to spruce it up (taping and painting) so a little extra time is OK.

It is an awesome experience. Due to plant rules I could not take pictures

Yes, the Fusions were mixed with Mustangs online, it's very interesting they can build two very different vehicles on the same line.

2014 GT, Black, 6 speed, Brembos, Recaros, and 3.73 rear.
Thanks for the PM, Fitz14! I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

That’s because we’re cool like that! Now you can go pick your new ‘Stang up, RubyRedMCA_Beast. It’s at your dealer.

Thanks for all your help Deysha!!

Ordered 10/15 and at the dealer 11/7, can't complain about that!
