Fastbackman Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Just left SVTPerformance website and two different dealers are claiming to have orders in. They both saying pricing isn't listed but all of the codes are there. He listed all of the codes for the car he ordered and says he has a DORA from Ford. The other claims to have in a preliminary order. Says that ford is checking the order bank for bugs for a week or so and then the orders will be received in the system. Everyone else who has contacted their dealer to check this has come up empty but these guys seem believable and I think they were able to get orders pushed through! Maybe it won't be long now.

KingCobra Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 One can only hope man!!! But, a month ahead of schedule of when we were told to expect the order banks to open up??? I find it hard to believe that Ford will be ahead of schedule for anything related to this car. But........one can only hope man!!! :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: KingCobra.

DutchGT500 Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 I think these are some pre-production cars that show up in the dealer showrooms for advertising. Not the ones that were used for crash testing, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchGT500 Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Don't say crash testing... that hurts knowing they are being destroyed! Indeed. But let me buy one for $1, Ford. Just for parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Oh B Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Yes, you can physically put an order into the Ford system now, but Job #1 is not available, nor are prices. However, all the codes are there.... Shelby Coupe body code = T88, PEP code is 820A. Shelby Conv. body code = T89, PEP code is 850A. Seven paint colors available.... D3 = Torch Red G5 = Alloy Metallic G9 = Vista Blue HP = Performance White T8 = Tungsten Gray UA = Black U3 = Grabber Orange Five stripe options (depends on color choice).... 854 = White 856 = Tungsten 857 = Silver 858 = Blue 52S = Stripe Delete Then there are the stand alone options.... 68S = Premium Trim Package 918 = Shaker 1000 50S = Satellite Radio I suspect that order guides will be available any day now. Pricing may not be finalized until Job #1 is announced (maybe in several weeks??). I hope this helps curb some of the anxiety of waiting for your cars!

FordGeek Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Order guides...order guides...we don't need no stinkin' order guides! Hallelujah fellow SVT freaks, I too was able to work with my local dealer to get an order in! I was almost in tears when my contact looked into the system and saw exactly what I was talking about (THANKS FIVE OH...YOU DA BOMB!!!). Although they couldn't gaurantee that I wasn't going to be raped with a markup, I'm at least a bit more hopeful that I'll be closer to the front than other "uninformed" buyers. By the way...I selected Tungsten Gray with Silver stripes, and I chose every option (except the crimson red accents). I love you man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy23c Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Yes, DORA is responding. I've seen a copy of one form myself. When I get back from FL, I am calling my dealer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingCobra Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Have these dealers actually received allocation yet, or are these orders going against future allocation? That's what I'm thinking Owen. Information in the system, but not confirmation of anything currently existing. But, I might just be discounting something I'm not in on too. I haven't heard from my guy yet, but left a message today. KingCobra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy23c Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Have these dealers actually received allocation yet, or are these orders going against future allocation? I don't know...checking. I know that 2 of these orders were at very large SVT dealers, and the 3rd was mid-size. Let me contact them. Later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCobra Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 My guy won't be in until Tuesday, but I'll deffinately be calling him with the codes!!! Keep you posted. KingCobra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry19702 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 But are these orders actually being placed for a place in line with Ford??? KingCobra. I just talked to the sales manager today at Bob Lowth Ford in Bemidji MN and he says they have not heard a thing from Ford yet. Hopefully it gets here before next fall, I would like to put a few miles on it before the snow fly’s next winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
