Factory Pickup Option


Recommended Posts

Do you think Ford will have this as an option (like the vette and volvo)?

 

 

Nope. Been there. Tried that. SVT sez no.

VNMOUS1 and others-

 

An insider at the Shelby plant says it's possible to make arrangements to take a plant tour and watch your car being built, but then the car must be delivered to the dealer for customer pick-up. No plant pick-ups.

 

I'll check to confirm and clarify this info. I think several of us would consider this if it is truly possible. More later.

Are you speaking of the Shelby plant in Vegas? Or AAI(a.k.a Flatrock)?

I was referring to AAI.

 

After my earlier post, I called SVT for the official word: not open to the public, no plant tours, production observation, or customer pick-up. The AAI plant insider indicated that he could help with arrangements for a couple different specific individuals to watch their car. So I think it amounted to personally pulling some strings for a few fellow enthusiasts. Don't count on a plant visit, they're pretty tight-lipped. But... you can sit across the street at the gas station and watch the GT500s come and go at "Shelby Central".
