Mentioned to my dealer about the embargo for launch and he said āthat is news to me but associated with Ford for many decades and would not surprise me. Your eta as far as I can see it is saying 27/8/24 and is on the ship called āMorning Lisaā.
Wait and see
On another matter I want to ditch...
Email from Ford AU today confirming car has shipped.
Weāre pleased to say that youāre now one step closer to being behind the wheel of your new Ford Mustang.
Your Ford Mustang is on a ship and is headed to Australia.
From the Baltimore Port, your Mustang will now travel south towards the...
Decided to ask my dealer for an update - I leave the poor guy alone because Ford tells him nothing and I hate being a pain
Anyway I think my car may have shipped
- I have a VIN which is no surprise given Ford sent me an email saying car was built and on the way to Baltimore Port
- Iāve been...
Just received following email from Ford
Weāre happy to be contacting you with some exciting news.
Your brand new Ford Mustang has been built and has left our Flat Rock Plant in Michigan.
It will now be transported to Baltimore Port in Maryland, where it will board the next available vessel...
Agreed - all depends on how you want to use the car
mineās a daily driver so heated and cooled seats and easier entry and exit etc are priories. Recaros arenāt intended for a daily drive, unless youāre in race car driver cosplay when you drive it as a daily driver.
With the new vehicle emissions legislation very likely to soon pass in the Senate and apply to. Vehicle sales in 2025, I wonder what if any increase that will mean for Mustangs esp V8ās and Rangers?
Spot on Race Red GT
the recent hysteria on this thread is reminiscent of the S550 delivery to AU some 10 years ago (I canāt believe how much time has passe)
There is no car equivalent to the Mustang in the price range. Itās a V8 - letās leave it at that. Itās a unicorn and sadly not here for...
I just received an email from Ford that my car is in the production system and allocated a NSC order no. No details though as to when I can expect a build.
I expect youāre correct but seems odd theyād be doing this so far out from delivery. Iāve bought many cars over the years and never seen this type of timing.
Iāll sit back and see what happens
I just received an email from the handover person at the dealership
"My name is xxx, and I am organising the handover of your new vehicle which is due to happen soon"
Went on to ask me to confirm that I wanted B&W slimline plates and a full tank of fuel, and then went on seeking to upsell...
I hope you're right
If people don't buy the S650, I reckon that's a good chance of happening, but I'm sceptical that will happen.
What's the comparable alternative vehicle as a new car purchase at the same price point?
thank you - thereās $200 ācash backā from not tinting aftermarket lol š
mind you after the Ford AU Mach 1 spec marketing stuff up, I wouldnāt be confident that itās true
