89Turd = my current mustang. Convertible GT. Started life as an Auto car. It was just terribly slow - hence the name. (It's better now - 5 speed, Vortech, etc...)
Congrats

Congratulations!! So much for...whatever the hell it was you weren't going to buy the Boss for!

Just FYI, I'm currently making Boss noises at my desk like a child.

OK - so help me out here guys...

I spoke with the dealer again. They have the bumper off and are repainting it to fix the scratch. He said he didnt think he would have the rear stickers in on Wednesday. I can take it without them and bring it back to have them installed when they are available.

Part of me is upset that my brand new car is not perfect. It will always be 'tainted' a little bit.

Would you take this one, or take the next one that will built 2nd quarter and hope for no issues?

Tell me it wont bother me in 10 years that the bumper was repainted..

I would take it without the bumper! Call me when it's done and I'll be back to pick it up!! Unless your a collector and trying to keep the car completely original and very low miles would I see it mattering to someone! Enjoy ur new ride and post up as soon as you can, if you can get yourself out of it!!!

keep it! consider it a birthmark.

theres no telling if the next one wouldnt have a little scratch either. then what will you do, wait for a 2013? it's not like its a lemon or anything. If they are repainting it and match it perfectly than what's the big deal?

It's a blessing in disguise - there is nothing worse than finding the first ding in a new car. In your case, the car got its first ding and was repaired free of charge by the dealer!

I wouldn't worry about it but if it bothers you that much don't take the car. I may paint my roof within weeks of taking possession of my car and it won't bother me. Today's paint process is vastly superior to what it used to be and the dealer should be able to match the paint color and it should be the same years from now. My wife's car has a color called Moon Shell Mica and has had two minor accidents with it over the past four years. This color is hard to describe let alone match. You cannon tell where it has been painted and the sections are aging the same as the rest of the car. And while I'm sure the factory applies a great coat of paint your car has been painted before. If your car had been in a small accident where repairs were made other than just paint I would not accept the car.

Awesome! I might have to drive up there and take a peek at it tonight.

Pat Milliken and Village both have received one now. They're only about 5 miles apart.

As a bodyshop owner, I can tell you it's no big deal. Everyone has this perception that their car is perfect until wrecked. You would be surprised how poor fitted body parts are on 95% of all vehicles, no matter how much you paid for it. As for the stripes I can tell you right now that you probably won't see them for a few weeks, stripes are harder to get than most sheetmetal/bumpers. Just take the vehicle and enjoy the heck out of it. Just uncap it and all your worries will disappear Like 5 dot 0 said, today's painting process is so much superior to what it was before you won't even notice.

You should have them paint the roof black while they are fixing the bumper!

Enjoy the car, you are one of the first in the country!
