That is so interesting. I wondered how it would go down the fact that the Dark Horse was down on power over a GT. Ford absolutely had to correct that. I mean in reality, no one will feel that small of a difference, but it would just be wrong to have the halo product come in under the normal car.
I just got my fortnightly update from the dealer. As expected my dates were pushed out like everyone else's. Good news is I now have a VIN as well!
Segmentation: 17 Jun 2024 ETA: 23 Oct 2024
Yeah August was the previous ETA I was given from my dealer. Since then I think the building of Aussie RHD cars were pushed back a couple of months so it wont surprise me if my ETA is pushed out when I get my next update from the dealer. I'll probably get an update later this week.
A number of us here in Australia received these welcome messages in the last week. Join us in the Australia subforum for a chat if you want.

When I received an update last Thu, mine didnt have a VIN and still had the Aug ETA on it. I'll get an update again next Thu and hopefully mine is updated as well like yours is.
Those dates you mention does make sense, because our cars were scheduled to be build April and delivered Aug and then...
Yeah I think in these modern times Covid and chip shortage is just being used as an escape code. Not all that relevant anymore. I'm just happy at least something clicked in the system and some action got triggered. For a while there I started to think we are dead in the water.
Well it seems like the universe is conspiring against me at this stage. On top of Ford postponing building my Mustang, we had a severe weather event on Friday and my whole house flooded. Probably 2cm of water through the whole house. No room spared. It's going to be a painful next few months as...
So frustrating! I just wish Ford Australia kept us and the dealers up to date. It seems most dealers are as clueless about what's going on as us.
I wonder if we can get anything out of them by hitting them up on Facebook messenger again. I've had some luck with that in the past.
If I didn't...
So I just had an update from my dealer. Nothing changed on mine since the previous update. VIN is still blank, segmentation date is still 2 April, ETA is still 8 August.
Man this uncertainty and anticipation is killing me 🥴
My dealer sends me an update every fortnight. I'm due one today. I'll update here once I get that. I have a feeling mine will be pushed back as well. My segmentation date was 2 April, but my car had no vin issued yet with the last update. I found that quite weird seeing the VIN is usually issued...
Test drove both a manual and auto Mustang yes. Never owned one.
Waiting is killing me too, but it's the car I really want so I don't really have a choice apart from buying used.
I ordered my GT S550 in January 2022. Missed the production of that car by about a month when they stopped S550 production and I was told I would need to change my order to a S650. Ordered a GT and DH the day after the S650 announcement. Cancelled my GT and kept my DH after pricing...
I'll probably get an update on mine from the dealer tomorrow. Hopefully dates have changed or VIN issued. I'll post an update here when I get any more info.
