RE: how long are special orders taking?
Ordered my "Screaming Yellow GT Premier" on day after Thanksgiving. Salesman says 2nd/3rd week of February. I have ID number of car about three weeks ago.
Important note, here anyway, San Jose Ca, no deposit required. He said if it shows and I'm not ready, a buyer will appear. In '03 I ordered a Yamaha FJR1300ABS '04, had to put down $500, non-refundable. I liked the Ford guy.

Jan 10 to end of March would be about ten weeks. That is what I was told. Hopefully tis a schedule they are keeping, not a "tell the customer line".
I ordered mine on day afer Thanksgiving. Holidays were an issue. Salesman forecast 2nd/3rd week of February. Hope is correct! Have plans to take new ride to Cambria, CA on the 23rd of February!

I called dealer today. Planning ahead, or hope to. I ordered day after Thanksgiving. They said that it was going into production in about five days. Said should arrive back half of February. I said golly, I really wanted it for an overnighter I was making, leaving Feb 23. He said could happen. I said would be really nice if it did, but, I'd live with it if did not make it. It'll be tough. :-(

Call the dealer. IF they can not give you the VIN be concerned about your order. Lost in the cracks? I ordered mine day after Thanksgiving, I've had VIN number for three or four weeks already.

RE: how long are special orders taking?
I ordered mine before they started coming out. Made the official order in October, and it made it in on Dec 22nd (great xmas gift to me BTW).
It took about 6 weeks total and came straight from the factory with everything as I had ordered. and actually... It was the first GT premium 5-spd to come to my dealership in GA. And even before I showed up that day to pay for it they were getting offers on my vehicle. [:-]
