orangesnake Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I just got back from taking pictures. They turned out a little dark. Going to put them on disc. Dealerships close at 6pm and on Sundays so we wont have the car till monday or so. I should have the pictures on here by tonight. Holy sh: censored:t it is an awesome sweet beautiful car!!!!! Here are a couple....takes long to load.... I will have more by 10 ish closing time at restaurant. I need to put a plug in for the guys at Butler Ford Warehouse in Indianapolis. Great guys to do business with. This is my second car and my sisters second car buying from these folks. They will shoot straight with you and no b.s. If you want to buy a car they will make it happen. Iam hearing some bad business from lots of other Ford dealers and customers. ie taking deposits and promising cars 1st, 2nd, 3rd on list then turning around and selling them to highest bidder!!!!! The folks at Butler Ford Warehouse are people of their word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you drive a Camaro to the dealership to pick it up? Is that why you couldn't make it there before closing time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you ask. I drove the 05. Car carrier got there at 5pm. I got someone to cover the restaurant. By then I had only 15 min till six. I got there in 20min driving like a maniac.

FordGeek Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Hey Orange, just for comparison, what were the details of your order insofar as dates were concerned? I'm more interested in hearing your build date and the ETD that was on your order. My original ETD was June 23; that didn't happen, but now my order is saying June 30. Just curious as to how close the dates matched what actually transpired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious as to how close the dates matched what actually transpired. I think she ordered her car on (first or second day that order guides came out) sorry I dont have that date maybe some can help with that one. build date good question (probably real close to when Job1 started) ETD was June 22nd. Date of delivery June 24th. Me on the other hand........I ordered the same day. Changed my color on 05/08. and might change it again on Monday. The blue looks really good and black is looking even better. I saw an alloy friday and a grabber orange and frankly I wasnt too impressed. Her Vista blue car really is beautiful!!

sbornitz Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Can't wait to see pics of the car outside in the sunlight. Let us know how it drives (that is if she let's you near the wheel ). Can you also take a pic of the snake on the seat. I want to see what it looks like with the charcoal seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sunshine Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Orange, How far are you from Elwood, IN? My GT500 is coming to Wyant Ford there. I'm all the way in Mississippi, but I couldn't get any of the greedy dealers to work with me here in spite of going to the dealership and calling and offering a deposit for over a year now. I got so frustrated that I made a deal with ADM, though it's much lower than that crazy $20,000 mark-up. Nice car btw! Congrats to your sister. BTW, is she single? I am as well. A garage of his/hers Shelby's would be the coolest! :happy feet: just kidding. Have fun tomorrow picking it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny that you are getting it from them because I was calling around to get how much over msrp and the day I call you were making you deal with them. They are good folks there also.

iceman Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Thanks for posting the pics & great to see a few of these starting to roll into town. I am still looking for an MSRP deal if you hear of any around here....and maybe 5K over if i get to order as i want. Be sure to post details around the sound and feel when you get to ride in it because I'm sure she won't be getting out of the drivers seat for a while.

We both got to drive it around the lot today before the tech guy tuned it. I barked the tires in second (small bark) and we both laughed about it (in a very short distance) I think I made Amily a little nervous. I have driven 12 second cars. This one is a very solid low 12's car!!! She picks it up tomorrow at 3pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
