Ordered 2014 GT500: The Wait Begins! Ha!

Today finally got my car in the system and submitted to Ford!
2014 Shelby GT500 black w/red stripes, recaros w/red accents, voice navigation,
SVT Performance Package. Dealer states unlike chevy, there is no way for the customer to track the vehicle but he would keep me posted.

I'm biased but your colors are a great combo. You'll enjoy the SVTPP. it should probably come with that package standard, but that's another discussion. The wait can be difficult.

That is not true, you can follow your vehicles progress through SVT and Ford Customer Sevice.

When you get your Vehicle Order Confirmation (VOC) make sure the car is configured the way you want it and be sure to check out the Priority and the Order Type. Priority should be 10 and the order type should be 1.

The dealer code and order number will be on the VOC and will be needed to track the status of your order.

Remember, all cars are on "Material Hold" until they have been scheduled for production.

Good luck with your car.

SVT - 800-367-3788

Congratulation on your purchase. The color combination you chose is stunning. How many 2014 GT 500 Mustang allocations did your dealer get for the year ?

Continue to check. By the way, did you order your seats in leather or cloth ?

What wait? I picked mine up last night and have already forgotten about the wait. The wait sucks but so well worth it.

So glad to hear that u finally got the beast Saparish, Since I've had mine since Monday I agree (what wait...hahahha) it is a horrible wait but so worth it. So anybody waiting, good luck, it's a brutal process, But it all goes away the moment u hit the gas for the first time!!

The wait does not bother me either. I just hope mine gets built. The uncertainty as to weather it gets built is my concern. Once I hear it is built I will wait patiently for delivery.
