Good experience for you. However, a vert is a totally different situation. They were hard to get in '05, and just as hard this year.

The sales guy didn't get the order in at that late date, only by coincidence and luck, was he able to hook you up with a 'Stang that met your needs. Did you get the color you wanted ? The exact option package ? Are you sure he didn't work a deal with another dealer ? Did you pay a premium price ?

I'm not doubting your story, as it did happen. That dealer is taking the credit for being lucky, not good. (yea I know the line, don't go there)
Well, either the guy got my order in the place of another order that was due to be pulled out of the system......or he found an order already placed with my exact list of options that the customer resigned claim on. Either way, I got the exact car in the color I wanted with the exact list of options I wanted. My point is that the guy didn't have to go thru the trouble of checking into all of that but he did. I probably just lucked out..........and yea, it is better to be lucky than good.[8D]

That really sucks that your order was cancelled. I placed my order for a 2006 Premium GT in Tungsten on 3/29 and I just spoke to the dealer ship today the car went into production 4/24 and the estimated delivery date is 5/8.
Jbuck: Is your order for an auto? coupe? Mine is for a manual trans ragtop, order went in the same day, but build date is over a month later. I am told that ragtops and expecially manuals are taking longer, but if yours is like mine then I need to complain a bit to my dealer. Which dealer placed your order?

I ordered an 06 screaming yellow GT vert on April 3. Now three weeks later I find out from the dealer that the factory "kicked it back" because they are not making anymore 06's.

No yellow available for 07 either.....
aluma comp wouldnt happen to be a company that deals with aluminum scaffolds aluminum beams, joices, fly-forms. and the like for forwork contractors?

Man, you guys are making me nervous. I ordered on 3/7. My dealer told me last Tues. 4/18. That it had a build date of 5/8.

TORCH RED GT PREMIUM
5 SPD
IUP
ICA
17" BR AL
ACTIVE ANTI THEFT

I'm gonna have to call and see why I'm 3 weeks ahead on ordering, and 2 weeks behind on building.

where in canada? There are a bunch of yellow ones around here that don't seem to be selling--which might mean they'd be willing to part with them.

The same thing happened to me last year. I ordered in Feburary and by May the car was cancelled. Best thing to do is look everywhere within 500 miles at all ford dealerships. It takes some time but do it. I found my car at a dealer 65 miles away and the car was still on the train on it's way. I went in and bought it unseen and have been happy ever since.

take a long hard look around
