The ETA is the delivery to the dealer.

I've been "In Production" since 8/23 and the only thing that's changed is the dealer ETA from 11 October to 31 October. I'm still waiting for it to move to "Built" then "Shipped" statuses.

Thanks for the clarification. I was really surprised to see 10/26. I was expecting mid to late November, but the car still hasn't moved to 'Built' status so I won't be surprised if (when) the ETA slips.

I got my email saying it's built and shipped! ETA to my dealer is 11/7 - 11/13.

To my surprise I got emails saying my GTPE is built and shipped as of this past weekend. My originally scheduled build date was the week of 9/13, so I was anticipating the 6 week delay on top of that but it ended up being one week. Supposedly it will arrive at my dealer the first week of November.

Holy smokes! Congrats @Twuntish on your car being shipped.

My GT-PE (Grabber Blue, Blue roof, no other options) build week was supposed to start today. Surprise, it's been pushed back. Hopefully, my build and ship will be as quick as yours.

Seems like there is no rhyme or reason as to why some are built, and others get pushed back. Mine showed up as being delivered to KC on 9/24 via palsapp...now I'm just waiting the couple of weeks to get to Colorado!!!

I am in Colorado too, this is now a race to get it delivered and enjoy a lot of drives before snow starts falling and it spends a lot of time garaged.

Congrats on the impending delivery @bso55 !

The lack of rhyme or reason and the complete lack of communication have pretty much turned me off on ordering another Ford, unless they come out with something that is supremely compelling. Even though I despise C#@vy, the Electric Silverado is now on my radar. Also waiting to see what Dodge (I can't call them "Ram" - just seems stupid) comes out with.

As someone who is currently watching their dad's lengthy struggle to get a C8, I can assure you that the ordering process from Chevy is NOT better lol. Unless you enjoy relying on and trusting dealers for everything.

Kind of sounds like the demand for in-demand cars makes it challenging for everyone. ?

Tbh, I've never cared so much about the production journey of a car before. I've learned quite a bit on these forums about the transit process and while it's frustrating to have a visibility gap on the factory line/chip hold, it's been nice to know others are in the same boat. Misery loves company.

Have a similar spec, but with the black roof, naturally wanted the 360 camera but as I don't do glass roofs and Ford doesn't think GTPE is good enough to have such options separate :(. My build date when back n forth like a yo-yo and was in production for ages but ended up arriving at the dealer a couple of weeks before the delivery estimate, thankfully just before I went away for a week so could make sure to remind the dealer to not attach the front plate bracket as requested. So you may still end up getting it sooner that expected.

Well, Just got an update on my GT.

Reserved November 2020 (way late to the game)
Converted to order on 4/27
Build week of 8/30
Build date 8/31 - It stayed here for a few weeks for a chip.
Shipped date 9/28
ETA 10/2

Unless Ford built some new high speed rail in secret, I don't see the car making it here by Saturday.

That would be a record! From my own experience maybe the ETA is right and the shipped date is wrong?

Tracker has just had it as in production until this morning. Unless it was actually sitting somewhere closer waiting on the chip.

It would be cool if it came in, the Drive Electric Week event is this weekend.

Things are definitely moving much faster for newer builds, I just got my build complete notification! This is a base GT in DMG, no pano roof.

Ordered on 4/27
"Received" on 4/29 (this is in the seg.fyi tracker)
Build week of 9/20, actual start date was 9/25
Completed build date of 9/27 and now in "Awaiting Shipment" status
ETA of 10/31 - 11/6

I think I might actually see this damn car in a few weeks!!!
