Build to Delivery

Sorry if this has already been covered, but what is a typical time from the build date til the delivery?

 

 

I know that not all the delivery times have been the same...mine was almost 3 months to the day from order date to me picking up the car.

It varies wildly. We did an informal poll on svtperformance, and I think about half of the orders were arriving in < 3 weeks. The other half obviously went into the 4-6 week range. This is from build date to delivery at your dealership.

I must be awfully lucky. Ordered May 4th, built July 19, arrived on rail car in SA, TX last night. SVT delivery date August 5th. If delivery holds, 3 months from order to delivery. Good luck to all on their orders. I'm hoping to be driving mine by the WE . . . :drool: Jeff

 

 

I think mine was ordered on May 6th, built July 18th, loaded on train 7/31. I just don't get it. :banghead:

I have the same situation as you. Did you order from champion or sames? I ordered sterling w/ blk stripes here at sames in laredo. What color combo is the 08? You gonna be making it to mustangfest this oct?

It SO depends upon dozens of things - many of which neither you nor your dealer can control. In fact, although MUCH can be done to delay a build, very little can be done to accelerate one.

 

If you hit the right cycle at every step and are located within a few miles of Flat Rock, you can see a car in 3-4 weeks. If you hit the wrong cycle and are across the country from Flat Rock, it can be 10-12 - presuming the dealer actually has buildable allocation when you leave your deposit.

I used to live in Laredo and remember sames selling with huge adm's what kind of deal did u get on your 13?

 

I got MSRP but yes they have been known to have ADM's. Where do you live now? I have been buying cars from there for bout 15 yrs, so I kinda get decent deals. Have you ordered and if so where from?

Hourigan,

I ordered from Red McCombs in SA. Black on Black. Jiminy Crickets she's a beast. A lot louder than I expected, certainly louder than the 08 stock or even after Corsa axel backs installed. Lean into her a bit and everyone around you knows their near something very special even with their windows up . . . I'm not aware of MustangFest; however sounds interesting. I'll have to look into it. I'm on the tail end of it hear in CC.

I'm not military, but have many relatives that were including my Dad, Uncles, Nephews, and Nieces. Have deepest respect for those that serve and put it all on the line. They are my heroes . . . MustangFest sounds like fun.
