Original order 11/17/04 and it is still clean and unscheduled. I reordered from a higher volume dealer on 3/23/05 and it is still clean and unscheduled. Son't look like I will ever see a 05 and by the news, might not even see a 06. But WTF, I tried and can't seem to get ****.

05GrayGT:

Every time I read your post (ordered 11/17/04) I am simply amazed that you don't have your car. Did that dealer give you your money back?

I don't mind the waiting, I was prepared for that - I have the LACK OF INFORMATION from Ford about the true status of my order. THAT is what is driving me batty!

By the way - Ordered March 1st... and waiting...

I never put a deposit on the 11/17/04 order but they have not pulled it out of the system either. The salesman is a good friend of mine. On the second order from Suntrup, I had to put a $500 deposit. I asked them the other day if I can get my depopsit back in the event the first order comes through and they said they would.

I ordered a Sonic Blue Premium GT – with all the options – on 1/18/05 (yes, 14 weeks ago). It was supposed to have been delivered last Friday, 4/22. It didn’t show up. I was definitely disappointed, but figured it would only be a couple more days. But, yesterday, the dealer told me that my car was still at the Ford plant in Michigan… with about 700 other cars undergoing some sort of quality check. No idea what for even. It was never even shipped (yet the system still showed a 4/22 delivery date… go figure). Needless to say, I was devastated. No one could tell me how much longer it is going to be, but I figure at least 3 or 4 more weeks. I thought I would need to take some Prozac or something. Anyway, about 4:30 yesterday afternoon, the dealer sent me an e-mail saying that his general manager offered to let me “borrow†a pre-owned 2005 V6 Mustang until mine arrives (whenever that is). So, I went by and picked up Mineral Gray V6. It’s not mine, and it’s not a GT… but at least it’s an ’05 Mustang.

Putting Steeda Ultralite 05 satin wheels on it with Pirelli P-zero Nero M&S Tires (275/40/R18ZR)

05GrayGT have you received a VIN on any one of your orders?????

My car has finally been build and is currently in storage (whatever that means)

Anyway, my dealer told me that the car is in the process of transportation and should be here by the second week of May (God, I hope so!)

We've been on the same boat since November and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you buddy.

Yikes... that sounds eerily familiar.

Yea... I'm a skeptic now. []
