cdlee Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Burning Blue- Correction Order Date: 6/1 Pulled Date: 6/12 Vin Date: 6/19 (ish) Window Sticker Date: 6/27 Build Date: 7/15 Original Delivery Date: 7/28 Updated Delivery Date: 8/3 Okay...since most of the early orders have been received by the board members in the other watch list thread..it's time for us June and later people to start one! (EDIT : we'll add in the people who have ordered before June that haven't received their VIN as of 7-13-09) I'll update this first post with the stats as they become available...if I miss you...please post and I'll add it to this list. I find it good to see that I'm not the only one waiting for my car...because sometimes it seems like everyone is getting their car but me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdlee Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Man, that's fast. You either must be well connected..........., or did your research very well before your order. I think I just got lucky. I have never ordered a car before but the dealer seems to have sold several Shelby's so maybe he knows whats up. It seems like every two weeks we would get some kind of news on the cars status. I hope the trend continues and I get it on time. I think my order barely got in under a window of opportunity for an earlier build than some that ordered just a few days after me. The whole process is very confusing. This website has been great to learn about the car. Thanks all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burning Blue Star IV Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Just got a call from Ford that they are going to look into the situation with my order...they are going to work with my dealer to hopefully resolve this...so we'll see where this leads. They said that they would contact me with some answers no later than Tuesday of next week. Fingers crossed that something good may come of this.

cdlee Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Was it a big dealership that you ordered the car from? Not really, but it's only Ford dealer within a 30 mile radius. Plus he had Shelby experience and obviously an allocation or two? He also has had one on order since Feb. and it has not shown up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many buyers don't post or have joined TS because they stink at the Internet or haven't found it yet after living the glory years of the 60's.

Or another one? scjmustangbob ordered 2-25-09 Vin received 7-16-09 Do I have the record for the longest wait Wow!

Burning Blue Star IV Posted July 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 I've yet to hear the phone ring today...so it looks like another week of waiting. I did have a good feeling about today..but I guess it's just not going to happen for me - my dealership closes at 5pm on Fridays and it's already after 2pm. I'm supposed to hear back from Ford by next Tuesday with some information about my order...I don't know what to expect...I guess I shouldn't expect anything. That way I won't be disappointed. So in our small sampling of Shelby orders to date 9 of 20 orders have been processed. That's a pretty good percentage considering how many orders are probably out there in the real world. 9 down and 11 to go...please Ford make us all happy soon!

War Eagle Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Quote "Congrats War Eagle..is this from your original dealership? Or another one?" I am still with my original Dealer, Treadwell Ford in Mobile Ala. Other than my car they only received one allocation for the entire year. The other car was a customer order that the guy backed out on. That car is sitting on their showroom floor. Torch Red Stripe delete, fully loaded.
