Ordered my car yesterday!

Finally placed the order for my 5.0 let the countdown begin lol

basically just a silver 5.0, manual trans, brembo brake package, 3.73s, 401A with cashmere, and at the last minute i decided on spoiler delete cuz im hoping someone comes out with a good ducktail spoiler kinda like the CDC for the 05-09. if they dont i still like it spoiler-less lol

Thanks to Mike(grabberblue310) for recommending Christina Diaz at Power Ford Torrance. Great working with her and I got the car for retail without ever having to negotiate on the price. Thats the main reason I went with Power over other dealers around here. I talked to other dealers and they said the cars with the options I want would be $36,800. First time I talk to Christina and shes upfront and says itll be $33,800.

While i was placing the order, the girl i was working with mentioned a hold on cars with 18" and 19" wheels last she checked but said it seems like its been taken care of now. Anyone know anything about this?

All cars with 18" or 19" wheels would be every GT and some V6 cars, nothing like that lately.

Congrats on the new car!!
It looks like that price was without the x-plan or any other plan, which is very nice for them to drop the price.
Any idea how long it will take to actually receive your car?
Looking at the build to delivery post, they seem to be fairly quick now, wondering if 4-6 weeks is reasonable (for my own selfish reasons).

ya, grabberblue310 told me to go to Christina at Power Ford on one of the cruises that was set up here. So I talk to her and thats the price she gave me, I love that I didnt have to haggle at all or spend the $50 for the MCA membership to get Xplan. She also said if I get the $750 coupon she'll take that off when the car comes and its time to pay

shes saying that itll take about 2 months but im hoping it is like a month and a half.

thanks man, cant wait to get some pictures of our cars together

i have test driven 4 5.0s, 3 manuals and an automatic and was in love every time. im 19 and so far ive had 3 cars and I have sold each after about a year. I think this car will be the one to break that, especially since im getting it exactly how I want it

I know dude, will be SICK!

Your pattern sounds EXACTLY like mine, I'm 20 and have had 3 mustangs all traded in about 2 years after I've gotten them. I'm 100% sure I will be keeping this baby for a very long time, after all my future GT500 will need a friend to play with

So is she charging you the flat price of "invoice + holdback"? If so that's a great deal
