Varilux, I hope you don't mind me asking but, what month and day was it ordered? Mine was ordered April 9th and should be built and delivered (by convoy) sometime during the month of May as well.
I placed the order 11 April. Originally, Deysha said to expect the window sticker to come on-line on 8 May (with a build date about a week after that... or the 15th). So, they're a week ahead on the window sticker, and a couple days ahead on the build date!
The original ETA at the dealer was 30 May. I don't know how long it typically takes for rail delivery to the DFW area, but if it is actually built on the 13th, I would guess it should normally be at my dealer by the 30th.
Enthused by my build date, I checked with my insurer and the Mustang GT will add only $16/month to my policy (I currently drive an '07 BMW Z4 coupe). To be honest, I thought it would have a bigger impact.

My GEICO premium is $293 for the 2011 Ranger XLT Supercab 4x4. The new GT will be an increase of $56.

Yes... I hope they stay ahead of schedule. Mine could be built then somewhere around the end of next week. Delivery shouldn't take that long for me. They usually truck 'em in. I'm so anxious to crawl behind that wheel and cruise.

Thats pretty good! I'm only 27 so you've had insurance there a year before I was born haha! But my rates are basically right at 100 a month for full coverage on both my truck and for the mustang gt

Man, all you guys are getting your VINs and window stickers that ordered right around the same time I did....April 11th.
My 750.00 rebate coupon expires on May 18th, and there is no way I'll have my car by then !! I've been ordering brochures over the past 2 weeks and not a single one has showed up!!

I remember, back in the day, when my agent said, "When you turn 25, your rates will drop." I found out that was a lie.

I know Ford updates stuff on Wednesday, so after catching up on my morning email, I decided to go ahead and click on the link to my window sticker Deysha gave me last week...
Usually, I get an immediate error screen reading "The VIN entered was not found in our system."
TODAY, however, my browser skipped a beat, spun the little "give me a second to load" symbol, and produced a lovely window sticker!
http://fordlabels.webview.biz/webvie...BP8CF1E5235369
According the the sticker, I have a "blend" date of 13 May (a Monday, but I don't care). Other than the fact that they spelled my name wrong on the sticker (should be Hanlin- not Manlin), its exactly what I ordered.
Now, hopefully those wonderful UmpahLumpahs that assemble our cars don't go on a bender on Mother's Day!
Question- on the window sticker, there is a scan code that says "Experience this vehicle," but when scanned it just pulls up the Ford.com site. Is this supposed to pull up an image of your car as ordered online?
PS- Thank you, Deysha!

I ordered brochures at least three times over a 2 week period, and only got one to show up (and when it did, there was no $750 coupon). So, I've placed about 3-4 orders in the 2 weeks since- with no brochures arriving.
I got the X-Plan price (and the $1,500 rebate). As long as the price they quoted me for my trade-in doesn't change (I drive my '65 any day there is 0% chance of rain, so there will only be another 500 miles on the Z4's odometer- so I'll want an explanation if the trade-in changes) I guess I can live without the $750 coupon.
Purplekrab- we have identical dates for each step of the process. I will be VERY happy if the car is here by 30 May. My dad- from whom I inherited my addiction to cars- will be in town for my son's graduation from HS (kid thinks he'll be driving the GT to his graduation
). It would be cool to take dad to the delivery!
I chose the $1500 rebate, over a low interest rate option.
Me too- I can get 2.39% through my bank- which is almost as good as the 1.9% Ford offers if you don't take the $1,500.

Your rates don't seem to me that they are overly expensive for a two-vehicle policy. But, I know very little about insurance premiums for younger folks. I never had any kids.

Hopefully, I'll be skipping my May Ranger payment and may not have to make first payment on the GT until July. I also have it set up for my service tech at QuickLane (and I) to take it for a spin on I-44. He quoted me $67.95 for servicing too. That's cheap.
