I just got the same email. Last week Vista didn't have a vessel and had a mid-Nov ETA so hopefully this means a slightly earlier delivery.

I got am email saying mine is now on a ship to Australia! @bfets did you get an email too?

I finally got a Vista update this week. My car has been sitting in Baltimore since 11 July but delivery has been pushed back again to mid November with no shipping details.

Dealer sent me a SS and the VIN was blank. My contract has a VIN from prior to the reschedule but nothing in the system now.

August 2022

I don't know that getting a VIN is necessarily indicative. I don't have a VIN but I still got the email from Ford stating mine had been built and was waiting for shipping to Australia and the dealer said Oct delivery.

I think I will be on the same ship. I got the notification mine had been build and left flat Rock on 10 July. I don't have a Vista update though so can't confirm other details. I was told I should be able to pick it up in October.

I'm considering this option as well so keen for any feedback.

I'm jealous! I was supposed to be in Fort Worth next week but my trip got cancelled. Those pics look awesome and I will definitely have to drop in there on my next trip. Being able to look over a range of options and see what you like would be amazing.

Yeah, I noticed the different exhaust configurations as well. I wonder if it was two different setups run at different times.

Do you still have the same VIN as back in Feb? I had a VIN in Jan but the last update in March had the VIN blank. Same NSC for both.

Yeah, I had assumed that the cost would be passed on, otherwise there isn't any profit in it for them and it all becomes a bit pointless from a Ford AU perspective. I would go as far as saying your worst case is the most likely outcome. Worst case would be they cancel the current planned import...

I'm sure the Ford V8 will survive in the US because they are able to offset the emissions with a broader range of electric and hybrid vehicles. In Australia they only have Ranger and Mustang. Both are well over the CO2 levels government is targeting for Jan 1 2025 introduction. This means Ford...

Yeah, I am surprised by this as well considering manufacture hasn't started either if delivery is now May ...

I think with the pricing there will be a lot of cancelled Blue Ember Auto DHs ...

Yeah I have a contact subject to price and availability but they have been cagey about the availability.

A lot of Mach 1s on Car Sales are still quite expensive though. It will be interesting to see what happens to their prices once the S650 pricing is out but I suspect that they will not be any cheaper than a new DH. I am regretting not pulling the trigger on one that was in the mid-90s earlier...

Interesting that manual DHs are less than 1/2 the total orders. I would have thought that the manual trans would be a significant reason for folks to get a DH. Even for the collectors I would think that a manual would be more desirable.

So much for the rumours we were getting 1000 Dark Horse in country ... Although that also explains why dealers are only get allocated 4-6 rather than the 7 average that was previously quoted as well. A 2nd hand Mach 1 is looking better as I think I will miss out on initial allocation of DH...

I find it interesting that the Australian sites are all reviewing the Dark Horse when it is already well oversubscribed and anyone that doesn't have their name down already isn't going to get one.
