Frustration is setting in hard with this one.
I sure hope you are right. And yes I did order on 2/19. Have they put yours in transit yet?

Mine still isn't in transit. CONFIRMED by dealer this morning.
Car no longer shows in Cotus (either version, I know they are still under construction).

Mines coming to Wisconsin on a rail car; which in my mind is the dumbest thing ive ever heard.
I could have driven to FlatRock in 6 hours and picked it up 21 days ago when it was released on 4/17.

Or taken a Spirit Airways flight for $52 and a cab to the facility and driven it home.

Quite frustrating on this whole process. Hopefully by the time you get back it will be waiting for you

Mine was ordered 3/16, built on 4/17. Showed in transit on 4/20 with EDD on 5/1. Then, suddenly, COTUS went back to "awaiting shipment" with no EDD ever since.


This is really teaching me (testing) patience if for no other reason, I pass the Flat Rock Plant every day in the way to work. My dealer is 3 minutes from my home and is less than 10 minutes from the plant. I could actually walk to the plant from home to pick up the car. We often go "round back" at the plant to the extremely large post-staging lot and look through the fence to see if we can guess which one of the few orange mustangs in the sea of thousands of cars is ours.


I'll bet it will take longer to load our car on a convoy truck that the entire delivery trip time to my dealer a few minutes away. LOL

Hi ejjp, this situation is unbelievable, you are more patient them me.
I'm sitting at 10 hours drive on the other site of the Customs and I would like to go to their office to get explanation & actions plan!
It'is will be great if you could post a picture of all the Mustangs in the parking area close to the plant .

Keep pressure on Ford to deliver your Mustang, since the beginning the official raison a got it's a transportation issue and they have no clue when the will be able to deliver

Mine
GT Convertible
Ordered 03/9,
Built 03/30
EDD TBD (I Hope very soon)

For some reason I have this feeling in my gut that I wont be seeing the car I ordered. It looks like the plant will go on shut down in the middle of June. Oh well, will be happy to get a 2016 too. Maybe switch my order from a V6 to GT premium!

Took delivery this past Thursday. The car drives awesome. I love the turbo sound when I accelerate. Love the 2 gauges (turbo boost gauge) above the center console, really cool. The interior is high quality compared to my 2012. The new sync system is better than the one in my 2012. The dealer put in regular gas, so I'm planning to switch to premium gas on my first fill up.
I drove with the top down a few times, this is my first convertible and the open air feeling is really nice even when it's 80 degrees and the sun is out. The caps for the sides when the top is down was in the trunk. I didn't figure out how to put them on yet though, I read in the manual you had to push it below the trim or something.

Plant Shut down

Does any one know if the plant shut down is only in the production line or does it affect shipping from the yard also?

This is not a Ford approved site and it does not have correct information, guys.

Be sure to PM me with your VIN so I can check on it, ejjp.

Let’s see if it schedules this week, 2015 topdown. That won’t happen until the end of June, so there’s plenty of time.

It’s waiting on a truck to pick it up and deliver it to your dealer, PodLite. This should happen soon.

This affects production, Son of Growly.

Could be! I know there's a 3/30 build week customer ordered ecoboost going to my same dealer that didn't ship with mine for some reason.

Friday is 12 for me.
Dealership told me 6-8 the day i ordered.
Week later it jumped up to 10-12 weeks.
So were still in the time frame window but barely.
And knowing the car was released on the 17th of April and it hasn't moved is upsetting.

I'm happy for you BigEasyGT !
I'm still hoping news soon, nothing else to do Ford doesn't give any informations in advance and keep their customer in the dark.
