Here is an excellent video of Flatrock from NatGeo.

May have to order

Greetings all. I am planning to purchase a 2014 GT premium in Deep Impact Blue in July. From what I can tell, Ford doesn't produce a lot of these, and I cant locate one close by (I am in Northern California) so it looks like I will have to order one. From what I've read here, it's takes about 2 months from order to delivery.


Is there a cut-off date when I wont be able to order 2014? I assume there would be since the plants have to re-tool for the 2015's... Does anyone know?


Thanks,


Steve

From what I was told by John Clor from Ford Performance. The 2014 Mustang production is scheduled to end on 6/20/14 but could be extended into July.

I also have heard orders will not be taken after this month to give enough time to finish building them before the switch. If you want to order exactly what you want you may want to do it sooner rather than later to be safe.

I really really want to beef up horse power but this whole thing about Ford being able to see that the car was tuned and then saying they wont cover the warranty scares me. I might have to wait until after the warranty runs out first... unless, I can get my dealership to agree to honoring the warranty despite giving it a tune. If that is possible then its time...

**regardless of if she is finally on a train, or still sitting the yard... the positive is that Im one day closer to getting her... not sure if that helped me, but Im trying.**
I'm going to get the ford procal tune
As long as a dealer installs the tune you still keep the warranty.
Plus it's not a bad tune for the money, guys are going pretty fast with them and there safe!

Wow, that's soon.


Doubt I could buy by end of the month. Guess I'll have to see what's available in June or July. To bad they don't have a "hold" program.

You won't need to pay for it or sign papers until it comes in…just put a $500-$1000 deposit down to order it.

I would order ASAP too since the closer it gets to the end of ordering, the higher chance that the car won't get built since they might start running out of the options you want.

As stated above you would only need a small down payment, and you will not get the car for 6-8 weeks on the fast track. In addition you can ask your dealer to put a low priority rate on the car so Ford will not grab the order as quickly which may delay it another 2-4 weeks. Also once the car show up you can always delay the final signing of papers for a week or 2 and your 1st payment wont be for a month after that. You can easy drag it out till middle to end of may

If you do want one, I would highly recommend ordering one the exact way you want it, you will be much happier in the end and for the years of ownership to come!

They offered to get it for me but I don't want some 18 year old lot porter to put the first 70 mi. On my car. They wouldn't trailer it they would only send a guy to drive it back.

That's right I remember you saying that now I agree, I would not want anyone else in my car!

That is crazy they wont trailer it, I would make AAA tow it to the dealer! Will they let you get a tow truck for it?

rebates and incentive cash after date?

I ordered my 2014 on 3/5/14. according to the website, there is a 2000 rebate, another 1000 rebate and then another 1000 rebate from what i can tell online. Looks like the last one is if you go with ford credit, who i have right now on my current car we will be trading in so i will hopefully stay with them. i just now got the email for the $750 cash rebate as well on top of any other offers it says, but expires on 3/31 and must take delivery by then. i know for sure it wont even be built by then, probably will be done and ready to go the following month i am guessing, around May 1 or so. Will i be able to us the current rebates that are out now since i ordered it and also use the $750 cash offer, or will i be out of luck since i did not take delivery by 3/31?

I ordered a sterling grey V6 Premium with medium stone auto MCA edition with electronic pkg, comfort pkg and rear video. I ordered on February 4th and have not talked to my dealer since. I just assumed he would call when my car was in. I guess tomorrow I need to find an order number and dealer number. Anything else that I should know?

You will have to talk with your dealer, try to get it in writing so you don't miss out. I am going rounds with my dealer right now about mine. I ordered it 2/20 and my coupon is good till 4/12 , they said I should have the car by the end of march........yet here we are over a week into may h and my order has not even been pulled! anyways it's all on your dealer if they will let you use it so start nagging them now!
