Mach Drop Build Updates

[Matthewmohan]

My FE Blue Window Sticker just changed to GREEN!! wth?

Weird! On a side note, I can attest to the layer of dusty grime on the cars coming up from Mexico. My dealer got his FCTP car yesterday and a customer’s FE. He was “surprised” mine wasn’t with them. The tester was prepped and beautiful. My wife and I LOVED the car. She said she didn’t need to drive it but once she did she wouldn’t give up the wheel. The customer car wasn’t prepped yet and it looked like it had been ridden hard and put away wet. I told the dealer not to call me until they prep my car. I don’t want to ever see it in that shape.

My sticker updated (date at bottom) outside of the normal weekly cycle, and now I see my ETA changed from 3/6 to 3/10. It was at the Argentine ramp on Sunday the 7th. It should not take a month, my dealer's FCTP was going through Spokane 10 days after it was at the Argentine ramp. Is my MME still sitting at the Argentine ramp buried in a snow drift?
Estimated to be delivered in 28 days. <- that number increased also.

I think its just automatic date push based on system rules -- no way it takes that long

I'm sorry but just me here and my thinking. The price of the mache first edition I think I would wait and buy a gt if I was going to pay that price.

If the premium did not get the big discount a while back I was going to purchase a GT. The price difference changed my mind.

I just noticed something. JCT receipt shows this delivery address, which google maps shows as below. It appears this is where they drop off our cars. I wish there was a way to get a newer picture, somebody nearby with a drone ?

A number of reasons:
1) I am currently without a car waiting for mine to arrive. Can't wait until the end of summer which is an optimistic delivery timeframe.
2) I wanted Grabber Blue and if I was willing to pay the original price for the FE, the small discount we got is icing on the cake for me.
3) We don't know what the final pricing will be for the GT but I am sure to get the one with the options on it that I would want will be much more than the current starting price

The GT would be more expensive than FE once you add the features not included as standard in GT, plus lower range and an additional 6 months of waiting.

My reasons:
More power than I need - I might get myself in trouble.
Less range
Some options that are standard on the FE would cost extra on the GT - heated seats and steering wheel for one.

I like the looks of the front of the GT better, and the magneride would be nice.

No doubt, it will be, but not thousands. The A plan on it will help out on that for myself.

Yes thousands. The FE MSRP is $59,640. GT is $ 61,840. And that's $2,000 before adding the options back in. Plus, I don't like the orange stitching, and the ugly aero covers that are standard on GT. I do like not having the glass roof and even better body paint colored roof. Also not having El Bandido mustache on the front.

And of course there is not AZX plan discount on the wait time.

I'm just talking for me, as if i was buying.

Yep. I'm speaking for me too. ?

My ETA just changed from 2/19 to 3/13! What the heck?!? A couple days ago it was on a train in Kansas headed to CA. What’s up with the sudden change?!? Is anyone else seeing such a major change in their delivery ETA?

 

[highland58]

I asked my dealer for a VV location. Here is what he sent:

Why is there no further history?? Jack Cooper Transport clearly shows it was delivered to the argentine ramp on Sunday. If I call Ford, will they give me a more updated version?

My drop FE (shipped 1/23) finally changed from pending in palsapp. It shows delivered to Norfolk Southern (VOLTZ), Birmingham, MO, delivered on 2/11. Slowly getting closer...
