Congrats man, but I'm not going to lie this makes me a little mad at Ford. I ordered my GT on 1/26/15, a month before you, it finished production on 3/31/16 just like yours, and is STILL awaiting shipment. I don't get it!

Yes, I'm getting anxious and it's only been it's only been eight days! If it takes too long I may just wait for the 2016's! But then I'd have to wait again. It seems the dealers have lots of automatics and only a very few manuals.

No driving modes with non premium ecoboost?
[QUOTE=FordService;8477514]Woo hoo! Welcome and congrats, Victorpopoff! Be sure to PM me with your dealer’s name and order number so I can track it.
I just realized today, along with my salesman, that the performance package does not include the driving mode selections. I'm told that my ecoboost with performance package will be stuck in "Normal" mode. Why call it a performance package when important performance items are left out?
Now I have a choice of canceling my order or spending about 5k more just to get that. I don't really care about the better sound system, leather, better tires and wheels (because they already come with the PP) etc..
Very frustrating. Maybe I'll get a V6. That was my original idea because it sounded so much better than the four banger. Just have to vent about this!

[QUOTE=JimC;8477965]As I understand it the 3.7L V6 has fewer options and is only available as a base model - no performance package or other upgrades.
Thanks Jim. Maybe you or someone on this thread can shed some light on the performance package/premium features on the Ecoboost. The Ecoboost with the performance package comes standard with the selectable steering modes.
But unless you order the Premium package and the 201A option you do not get the, Normal, Sport, and Track modes. My Ford dealer tells me that because I'm getting a manual transmission I'm not missing out on anything regarding the selectable driving modes. According to him the driving modes only work with the automatics. Is this true? Anyone with firsthand knowledge about this?
Thanks!
