Default 2006 GT

Well, ordered my first Mustang GT...my first V-8....happy about the price, not happy about whats happened. The dealership took two weeks before they ordered it. They said Ford was not accepting Mustang orders. Now, my car will not be started on until 12/12/05 and I won't receive it until sometime in January. THIS STINKS...I parked my WRX because I was told I would have it by the 12/16...

i think you will like it. every one is waiting. the dealers can't get the GTs so they probably had to wait to put in the order. It's fairly common recently. Lot's of guys have said the same thing.

The joys of the waiting club.
My dealer said the Ford rep is coming down Thursday and he's going to try to get my pushed into production sooner he thinks i may see it end of january now.
Which is bad and good.
Good because i'll have it. Bad because i don't wanna drive it in the winter.
I would be sick if i smashed it up a week after getting it.
Guess i'll just park and tarp it and stand in the shop drooling over it for a couple months haha.

Strange, Ford always takes the order, it's the build date they constantly play with. I just called my dealer and he confirmed, they never refuse an order.
