Going Over to Wait for My Car

Recommended Posts

Good Morning Guy's and Gal's,

Well looks like the day has finally come. Lacking one day of being 4 months after build, the baby should finally be coming home. I looked at the Torch Red one last night as our Mustang Club meets at the dealership, looked great! I do have one caveat, to my story and that is I must take my Mother for some tests today so I will only be able to stay at the dealership until around 11:00 AM if it comes after that I will have to come back. I must say a lot of the excitement has worn off after all I have been through with the waiting and misinformation etc. but the good thing that has come of it is that I have met some great new friends on this forum. Friends sharing a common interest and many of us going through the same aggrevation. Anyway if everything goes well today all is forgiven. I thank GOD for allowing me to receive this Blessing of a new Shelby and all these new friends.

Blessings,

Cobra010

UPDATE UPDATE!!!

 

Well I was there when the transport rolled in but........ No Shelby!!!!!! I asked what happened and the driver explained they have 72 hours to make delivery once it gets to the terminal all the vehicles which were delivered reached the terminal the same day mine did!!!

Well no one told them it was HOT so they just started at the top of their list and pulled the first eight mine wasn't in the first eight so it looks like tomorrow?????

No Suprise to me the way this whole thing has gone. But I am still thankful for the chance to get it.

I will update you guy's and gal's again tomorrow.

Cobra010,

 

You sound like a guy that can keep things in perspective...hang in there! I hope the car is perfect and a week from taking delivery this journey will just be a bad dream. Once you get the car...enjoy my friend and don't let the details take the excitement away. Looking forward to pictures

Does a car being described as "HOT" just mean that it's been sold already? :headscratch:

 

Glad to see things coming to a happy ending for you Cobra010!

 

Hi Blue Star,

That is my understanding. It apparently is a BUZZ word or HOT button between the ordering type people and the transit people to help hull out people like us call and saying we really need the car etc. I am a sales consultant but I am learning loads during this transaction of my own car.

Don't want to steal my friend Cobra010s thunder, but when I called him at about 1100 EST today he was doing paperwork!!!!!!!

Put your foot in it on the way home Al!

Cobra, did you get your car?

Please say the keys are in your hand (or better yet the ignition). Every mile I drive been thinking of how much you will treasure this beast once you get it.

Peace,

Goldgus

To some paranoid it might mean it was stolen and they called the police for it to be taken into impound for investigation.

I will tell you what was on my windshield written in wax pencil HOT on a taped paper to the windshield it said Rush Late Unit.

Worked 4 months to the day after birth the baby is finally home :happy feet: :shift:

I want to thank GOD for allowing me this blessing. If I could figure out how to send pictures I would send you guy's what I took at the dealership.

4 months, thats it....I waited 19 months!!!! Test drove a prototype in April 2006, got ours in Nov 2007!

 

Trust me, a few turns behind the wheel, :shift: and stabs on that throttle :superhero: ...you won't remember any of the wait...

 

Congrats...and enjoy...

 

Of course, you know the rule here at TS...no pics..and you'll be summarily bounced by one of the mods
