Great to hear such a wonderful buying experience!! What type of pricing did you get? Invoice + 300? You can PM if you don't feel like posting.

Thanks for the information!!

 

A-Plan (dad worked for Ford) minus $2000 in rebates: $500 cust cash + $1500 RCL renewal bonus

 

Another cool thing about brick red interior is that it's not a popular choice. Obviously, that can be viewed from both sides but every time I see one, which is not often, I hurry over to see it. I searched several dealers in Georgia, and found just a couple with brick red. I'd love to see a percentage of GT's with brick red; I'd guess under 5%. It's almost like I'm making a case against it here, lol.

 

Black with the IUP/ICAP is the chit

 

White and red is working its way from limbo to me.

Black and red is another good combo.

I've never had to wait this long for an american car. I hope its worth the wait.

It will be GREAT to be faster than the wife again! (She won't be happy, again.)

 

That price is exactly what I paid (well, 150 under invoice plus a 400 dealer service fee). I sense a pattern in what Chestatee offers people. Yeah, they're my dealer too. My sales guy told me I was his first retail order in 5 years.

Two questions for you: Who's your salesman, and do you want to hear my experience?

 

Don't get cold feet and just settle...this is a big purchase and you should get what you want!

I felt the same way at first, and look at what I ended up ordering! See my signature.

 

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe it will be more of a collector's car.

 

Randy Berry. That is the exact deal he is offering me. I would love to hear your experience. I am waiting on him to call me back and then order.

 

Very Nice! That is very similar to what I want to order. Please post pictures when it arrives.

 

Get the Brick. It looks classy as hell IMHO.. Not my taste but I wouldn't mind havimn it. Just prefer the all black on black look. Absolutely not diggin the red. just my opinion.

 

Huh, my sales guy is Andy Conger. He was more their truck guy he told me, and apparently dealt with USAA Car Buying service requests too. Interesting. Anyway with my sales guy I was his first retail order in five years, he usually found cars on lots. Nice guy, no games, just a straight up deal. When I went to order he gave me a print out of the Vehicle Order Confirmation with everything on it, even the Dealer Invoice price (My sheet said it was a stock order, but he did take a copy of my license, so maybe they did ROV after. Priority 10, had the Order# and Dealer ID on it). Signed off on the price, paid a $1000 deposit, which was a little hefty, but I didn't mind.

Now I didn't get too many updates myself, though if it missed an ETA they were pretty quick to e-mail me (without me having to e-mail them first, importantly) saying they were looking into it, and I usually got an update within a day. This I ultimately inferred had more to do with only one guy having access to tracking, and I've occasionally had delays on updates because he was busy with customers. I didn't bug them too much, I usually just dialed Ford CS once a week for an update and eventually got my VIN and build date from them, then my sticker by knowing what sites to pull up, and so on.

Can't comment on taking delivery yet, but it should be there in a few days (I want Coffeejolts' poster ).

Pretty content overall, good price, order went in without a hitch, and they seemed to keep track of making sure it was progressing smoothly. I would have liked the Vehicle Visibility updates, as having JonnyB's updates were enlightening, particularly the offsite bits, but hey, maybe you can just ask for them.

 

Love the Brick Red, having it coming in my GT vert next week. Have friends with a black vert with Brick and it is great ! I've had too many black cars, though, and would rather drive than clean...so I'm getting Race Red. The Brick is much more subtle than the RR exterior and IMO looks great with it. I've seen 2 red coupes with Brick interior, looked very good. I also live in GA, but up by the NC line. Don't need security here...hell, we hardly need locks. But I'm a retired cop, worked auto theft for 7 years, and if I lived where you do, I would probably go for the security package. Not at the expense of Comfort, though, need those heated seats and the 6 way power passenger seat. I'd forego the electronics package, since I'm old and don't care for gadgets. Got that in my wife's Lincoln and don't like it. Getting a TomTom for the GT.....$200 vs $2000

 

Thanks for sharing. Glad to hear it generally has gone smooth. I hoping I won't experience the same delays but I would much rather have it take longer and built right then receive a lemon. I do have 8 weeks until I need the vehicle so I think I will be ok since recent orders seem to be shipping a little quicker.

What are the vehicle visibility updates? I have not heard about them.

 

Sweet Corvette. You are going to have quite a stable with the addition of your new GT convertible. Thanks for your opinion. I have started to think about all the scenarios of where I potentially park and I think I am going to suck it up and get the security package. I was furious when my car stereo was stolen and don't ever want that experience again. At the very least it will give me peace of mind.

 

Basically what Coffeejolts was talking about. Ford has a database where they post stuff to keep track of orders, and Dealers have accounts which can view it, but usually limited to inventory manager. It gives production dates and times and when it reaches each step of the process, and also rail car numbers and what ramps it goes to.

 

10-4, thanks. I'll be sure to ask for that.

 

Black with Red Brick should look great esp on a vert.

 

Thanks for everyone's opinions and advice. I just placed my order. Black 2011 Mustang GT premium, 6 speed manual, 401A with brick red leather, 3:73 gears, brembo package, electronics package, security package, comfort package and spoiler delete with dealer ordered and installed pedestal spoiler.

 

Awesome! Now the wait begins....
