Thumbs up New '12 Incoming

Unfortunately, my current 2011 turned out to be a lemon. Ford has been kind enough to approve a replacement for me.

The car arrived at my dealership yesterday and I should be able to pick it up on Tuesday.

It's not optioned quite as well as my '11, but id does have a couple other things my '11 does not. Heated seats, 3.73 axle.

I'm losing the shaker 1000 and accessory package 5.

Anyway, here's the replacement! I'm pretty excited about finally being able to enjoy the Mustang again!

Hey Jason, great looking car. Love the interior!!

Did you get to option it out, or did the dealer just do it for you due to the "buyback" from Ford?

I guess I'm not certain what you're trying to ask here.

Based on the rules I had to follow, I had to spend as much on the new car as I did on my previous. It's an MSRP to MSRP transfer.

An exception was made in this case to allow me to choose a slightly cheaper car as the inventory is slim right now. I was not allowed to order a car or anything like that. I had to have the dealer do a trade for this vehicle as it was optioned as close to mine as we could find in the region.

As long as it was on a dealer's lot and was at least $39,470 I could choose any Ford or Lincoln.

If you're happy with the new Stang that's all that matters.

I gotcha bud. Wasn't sure if you ordered it or not. Great that you found a car that was close to your previous GT.

Thanks guys! I'm really looking forward to being able to get behind the wheel and actually have some fun. Ford has taken care of me through the whole deal, so I give them kudos for that!

Tuesday can't come fast enough!

There are a couple minor things like that I'm excited about. The homelink is another.

My new '12 got the stupid traction control off button though. Sad about that.

What is the TC button like on the '11?
