Just to confuse things further here is some things I have run across.

I called the FCS today and asked for an update. They told me that the car is currently under production. I asked about the date on the sticker that says the 15th as a production date, he was unsure about the exact meaning but reiterated that the car shows in production. The car is not made in just one day so maybe the day refers to the completion date.

The original word was that production of 12's was suppose to start last week and sticker for other Mustangs were coming online two weeks ago.

Now I do not know how this guy got his info but he put it in his sig at AFM. This stuff gets confusing but I am starting to think that the car was started last week in the line and will be finished tomorrow. Again I don't know if his info is correct but putting all the pieces together it makes sense.

My window sticker has 2/14 for a date and my dealer stated that my car was being built on the 2/14. Not sure how long it takes to build one, but I bet to assemble it on the line takes only a day or less. Now I would think the car is all ready painted before the assembly starts.

Just beware that there will still likely be "OK to Buy" holds on the Bosses as well -- always take Vehicle Visibility ETAs with a grain of salt -- the times are calculated based on historical ETAs when the plant is running and releasing cars in a normal production fashion.

So until you actually get a "shipped" status don't ditch your existing ride.

I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade just trying to interject some reality. Ask people that bought last year about Ramp 50.

It will be hard to tell. The dealers VVS probably won't update until Friday to see if they are built yet. It would show a status change.

I'm f%#ckin' obsessed. Already have a list of things to buy for this fast stripper. I'm not going to order anything until it's built and on it's way.

My wife thinks I'm obsessed! But my son thinks he's going to be the coolest third grader on the planet when I pick him up after school. Me? It's going to be ear to ear grins at 7,500 rpm's.

Think of how many bought one sight unseen?

I purchased blackout lenses for my rear sides today so the black C stripe won't look so corny.

Yea, kind of crazy, but if you didn't you would run the risk of not getting one.

This purchase is way down the stupid scale from other cars I've bought.

Although I would have ordered one sight unseen I saw one on Nov. 12th and placed my order one week later.
