I only ordered it last week and they said 6-8 weeks. I just stopped at the other Ford dealer and they had a grabber orange in stock so I snapped some pics. They are in another thread. I think I am going to call the dealer I ordered it through and tell them to call me whenever they get an Alloy in and let me know the options, I may just take it.
I often work in a location where they unload new cars from the rail carriers. The lot is currently loaded with new '07 Mustangs ... and by far the new Alloy Grey is dominating the color choices. This new grey is DARK!!! In overcast, rainy, skies it is very difficult to differentiate it from a black car.

Only saw 1 grabber orange in the compoud ... a GT 'vert without the appearance package. The color is too light for my tastes ... almost a shade of peach to it. Would have preferred something more along the lines of the older grabber orange, like I saw on a vintage Mach 1 in Las Vegas last week.

I can't wait to see it in person. I am sure I am going to like it from what I have seen online. I originally ordered Vista I am glad I changed it.

I took pics last night, but I don't think they turned out that well. The color looks great...

Shot in Tulsa at the Midamerica meet, I believe this is Alloy Grey, if not excuse the mistake.

No this is Tungsten. I saw the Alloy today at the local dealer and it almost has a slight purple tint to it when the light hits it. I ordered myself one but after seeing it I don't know how much I like it. I am going to try and get by there and snap some pics tomorrow. I will post them up when I do. The one they had is a GT deluxe with Appearance package and shaker 500. I can tell you the hood scoop on the grabber didn't look that bad, the hood scoop on the Alloy looks terrible IMO.

I thought Tungsten was the color with purple in it. From the photos of the GT500 it looks like alloy metallic is going to be a dark neutral grey. Almost black. But please, lets see the pics!

Some more photos from mustangsource

This isnt a good indication of what the GT will look like since every GT500 looks amazing.
