Thanks to the advice on here, I contacted a second dealer who found the first dealers behavior surprising. I showed up and was done in 30 minutes. Order printout in hand with order code, sales code, price code, and final price.
I'm not sure if order code, and order number are used...
I'm OK with a wait (not 1.5 yrs though!) Winter is coming up anyway and I'm certainly not going to feed it to the salt. If it's delivered in winter it'd just sit in the barn until spring.
All i want is a regular GT with a manual trans and active exhaust. I don't need all the extra bells and whistles. That's why I'm trying to order, since stuff on the lot normally has all that extra stuff.
That's what I thought. I'm sure what he's sending me are other people's special orders that they decided they didnt want. I sent him back a link to the build I made on the Ford website, and now they won't even respond. Moving on to the next one.
Unfortunately, they were not what I want. If they were at least close, that would be great. One of them had like 15k worth of extra options that I'm not interested in at all.
First time poster here, after a certain manufacturer flubbed it's final production year of a certain car, probably losing itself a lifelong customer.
I read over the stickied threads and contacted a dealer. A couple red flags off the bat.
First, I was told orders are about 1 to 1.5 years (?!)...
