Got this from my dealer today. My only worry is that is shows as a stock order and it isn't the original order number I recieved. Any dealers here who can look at it and let me know if i should be suspicous?
thanks |

dates
Here is the dates for what they sent me.
Sch. Date 03/29 Stat Date 03/30 Status SCHEDULED Dlr ETA WK* 04/04 In case you couldn't read them on the pic. Thanks for taking a look Jeff. |
Maybe
They are a Saleen dealer and sell quite a few Mustangs, maybe Ford was being nice to them. Either way if it is getting built and ready for delivery the first week of April, I'm not going to complain.

VIN
Just requested a full VIN from them, I've been bugging them alot, but I figured they can deal with it as I just spent $35K with them LOL.
What they gave me looks like a screen print from a PC. |
Got full VIN
Yep, got full VIN from them, looks liek I am set to go!
Thanks. |
I wouldn't expect to see your car that early. According to my rep the reason they are building stock orders first is so they can build and hold them at the factory. They did it in 2005 as well but most of the early builds were retail orders. They build a bunch and hold them for quality checks. After they have a sufficient number built without any issues they then release them. The problem is if your car is one of the first out of the factory and into the storage area it ends up "against the fence" and the later production units ship first. They eventually get caught up and work their way back through to the first ones that are deepest in the storage lot. This was a problem with a bunch of my early 2005 orders that ended up stuck at the storage lot for weeks and weeks while fresher units shipped. This time they don't want to hold up the retail sold units so they are going to build stock units first, hold and check them and not worry how quickly they get dug through them once they give the okay to ship.
Just fair warning so you don't get to depressed if yours sits for a while. |
hope I didn't get screwed
That was my fear when I found out they cancelled my original Retail order and changed it to a stock order. I am rapidly losing faith in this dealer. They were always great in the past but now..
I wonder if I have any legal right to cancel my order with them and get my deposit back. Seeing as though they cancelled my Retail order and changed it to a stock order. I have no idea what they were thinking. |
Hopefully it goes faster than 05
That was an all new platform the 11 is the same as the 10 except for the drivetrain and steering |

Maybe they thought they'd be doing you a favor since Ford is building the Stock units first and thus should be shipped first? It seems counter intuitive to me that cars built later would be shipped first, at least until it was explained above.

Mustang
:agree: with the post, they are trying to help, and mine is the same way, but my dealer didn't cancel the order they just said that mine was taking the place of one of their's...I say you have nothing to worry about...and I am like you wanting the car to get here asap...:nice:
|
Thanks for the encouragement. Hopefully it works out better for me this way. I just wish they would of asked me first.

All in all you are better getting your car 3 weeks later and perfect than 3 weeks earlier with a missed issue. Let Ford do their job and build you the best car on the road and build it properly. You'll get plenty of driving in once it gets here. Be patient it'll get here.
