For those stuck with GT’s on the stop sale, looks like the ‘26 builds should net you your car quicker.

My dealer ordered me a ‘26 (301A, Manual, PP and AE w/ Red Calipers), and never got around to actually submitting it until Monday when I checked back in with him.

This morning, 3 days later, I got a VIN, and Build Date.

Looks like the week of November 17…

Will likely have it before the fix is available on the ‘25 they have there waiting for me.

The ‘25 is race red, but I decided to go for the Metallic Grey so I could do the red leather interior …

Mine just updated again with a new earlier build date.

Order placed 9/8, original build week 11/17, today updated to a week earlier, 11/10!

Haha I get it lol.

It’s not a daily for me, so I don’t have to worry about that… I’m hoping I can keep it through retirement when that comes in another 10-12 years… and eventually will be worth something by the time I pass it on to my son.


I searched but did not see a delivery date.

Nov 17, then November 10 . . . well, it's almost December? Did they give you your car?

I looked up the window sticker and the blend date is 12/1/25. I guess it should be built a day or two after that?
For mine my blend date is 12/2/2025

I know there are several of us on here with 12/01 blend dates. I got a note today that they "have unfortunately experienced unexpected delays."

Anyone else get this? Wondering if it has to do with my build or if it is a general issue.

Ford quit sending me emails after the one saying the car was "scheduled for production the week of 12/15." I received no email when the build week was changed to 12/1 or when the status changed to "in production."

Therefore, it's possible the same applies to my order, but I just don't know since I'm no longer receiving emails.

Sorry, I got a text and an email. Maybe because I already have a Ford account with a couple F150s on it. And I have the new vehicle loaded into my Ford app.

most accurate info available from ford customer care hotline. you'll need your vin
My blend date was today. If the tracker doesn't show "built" by the end of the week I'll give them a call. Thanks.

In my opinion I think it's best to wait for them to update it cause my status was updated 6 days ago which was pretty recent saying it's in production. I work at the Ford assembly line (the line sometimes run smoothly or badly) and it'll probably be updated within the same week of the blend date since there's always going to be small repairs to the vehicles and delays due to machine breaking down or waiting on parts. That's why it said the "week of" not necessarily mean it will be accurately made that same day. Just like what MidwayJ says, if it doesn't update within that week or after then it's best to call Ford's customer support number.
Anyways I'm just glad I got my window sticker and satisfied it's the way I optioned it too. 😎

I don't have a VIN yet and it's been over a week (of course Thanksgiving is in there.)

I checked the status of mine just now, and it's been updated to "built." I don't know what could have caused a delay with yours, but I hope it gets resolved fast.

Good news here too. I got the note just after 5:00. Built!
Hopefully enough built Mustangs are coming this way to get a train car moving.
