Did you order a 14' or a 13'? What was your order date?

It is a 2014. I ordered at the end of December. Cannot remember the exact date. Right around the 20th.

That is awesome that your getting your Shelby around March 21st!!

We ordered our 14' Shelby Feb 8th. I hate the wait! I know it will be well worth the wait though! (We have to wait anyways for all this snow to melt!)

What options did you get?

We ordered a Black 2014' GT500 with stripe delete (we are putting on our own silver stripes) 820A, Shaker pro

Great info, thanks. I'm quite sure I ordered before my dealership had even looked at getting any '14s for the lot, so I should have their first allocation.

Thanks again, Deysha.
You’re welcome! I can’t wait to see it.

Don’t worry, thegame. I’ll get to your PM as soon as possible.

Hi Deysha, I just sent you a PM for a quick shipment status update. Just knowing my Shelby is rolling on something would be great news. Thank you!
Thanks! I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Getting closer, elkk.

That will look sweet! I wonder why they don't have say a sterling grey stripe option for the black cars. As a kid I wanted a bat mobile and this is the closest I think I will get haha. So I got black with black striping. I am a sucker for black(muhaha). 820A and Recaros. That's it didn't want/need anything else. I won't lie the late march delivery is awesome. However I don't believe the weather here in Western PA will be quite ready for it. Plus there is so much salt on the roads. I will be recording revving it etc. Sit in the garage with it and play the recording and pretend like I am driving for a month. (No seriously!)

Deysha PM'd me. Mine is about 100 miles away, waiting to be trucked to the dealership. Thank you Deysha.
I wonder if the dealership will want it to count for this month?

I'm sure they would, but they have little or no influence over the transport company. In any event, they will need about a day to go through their inspections and detailing to have the car ready to deliver to you. It's odd that I got strangely patient about mine once it got to the nearby rail yard. I knew where it was and knew it would just be a matter of a few days. I hope to shoot video of mine coming off the truck this afternoon.

It would be great if you could pull a few still frames off that video from an angle where the seats cannot be seen ... then I could reappropriate it as MY pony coming off the truck, too!

Problem is that the top will be up, but I suppose you could Photoshop that.

You're right with me ... photoshopping the top should not at all be difficult! (this is hilarious!)

My salesman provided me a full tracking history printout on my car and it makes interesting reading. It's a spreadsheet that shows higher level status, detail level status, location, date/time, and ETA.

I had understood that the build date shown on the window sticker was the date they finish building the car, but mine shows the following:
2/4 - In Production - Sent to Plant
2/6 - In Production - Body Shop
2/12 - In Production - Trim Line
2/13 - In Production - Produced
2/13 - Awaiting Shipment - Released
2/13 - In Transit - Received - C31 (Autoport Limited)
2/14 - In Transit - Shipped Rail on Canadian National Railway

CSX must sub out westbound cars to Canadian National. They take them down through Indiana into Illimois and turn them over to BNSF. That part took 4 days, so BNSF got the car on 2/18. It arrived in the nearby rail yard in Kent, WA on 2/23 and will be delivered to my dealer this afternoon.

When I pick it up tomorrow afternoon it will have taken 52 days from order to delivery.

Dang, must be nice; my salesmen was clueless from start to finish. Though his cluelessness ended up saving me 2k...

My dealership and salesmen have been great. When I went there to see another model in Ruby Red and it had been raining, they volunteered to pull it in and dry it off. I went back later to take another drive in a V6 without any performance upgrades and they just handed me the keys and said take your time. Yesterday, when we learned that my car would be another day before being trucked down, they volunteered to send someone up to get it. I told them that was not necessary, that I could wait one more day. Great people to work with.
