My Mach-E GT Performance Edition DELIVERY! (Exterior, Interior, Wheels, Tires Pics Added)

[0t60-3.5]

Friday, 8/27/21 Update:
SYNC 4 Software Version: 21180_PRODUCT, Revision: 176

Saturday 8/21/21 Update:
I have some fantastic initial driving videos / review including 0-60, be patient, good stuff coming.

Delivered late afternoon today (Thurs, 8/19/21)...
2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition in Rapid Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat
Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

It came two weeks earlier than expected!

Some commentary after a day of work, few pics, and letting a few friends drive:

• The dark grey color is lighter in the pictures than seeing in person, so I think it does look cooler in person.
• I've let a couple other EV techies drive it today and they are exhilarated
• Intense laughter when stomping on the go pedal
• "Feel it in the gut."
• Like a roller coaster and space shot
• Tight control - great stability
• Steering wheel feels fantastic, for a race car.
• 15 minutes later: I can still feel that power in my gut!
• Heavy sense of regeneration, ie. let go of pedal and can definitely feel it actively slowing down, not coasting. (probably not specific to the GT PE)
• I have to adjust power response expectations in traffic - such as goosing it to pass - need to ensure I've already changed lanes before goosing it, otherwise intense acceleration sneaks up too fast to car in front.

Updated with complete specific timeline:

1. November 2019 - Reservation
2. May 1st, 2021 - Ordered
3. End of June 2021 - notice of build date the week of July 18th
4. July 18th - Aug 9th - Status was Building in progress
5. August 10th - Status changed to shipping with estimated delivery Aug 31st - Sept 6th.
6. August 12th - Estimated delivery improved by two days to Aug 29th - Sept 4th.
7. Continued with that for about week, approximately. On PALSAPP, only appearing a Freight Bill number and pending.
8. August 17th PALSAPP changed to dispatched, but no estimated delivery date.
9. August 19th PALSAPP changed to delivered in late morning. I called the dealership and they confirmed.
10. Vehicle was EXTREMELY dusty - probably dust collected from Mexico to Texas to Kansas City.
11. Got feeling a few dealership employees got to drive / do the pre-deliver inspection, which is fine by me. Spread the fun.
12. Finalized paperwork and left dealership by 5:45pm, clean as a whistle

OMG, I am ready to trade in for a GTPE right now and I have only had my car for a month, lol

I wonder if we can buy the front bumper thing separately and install it on our normal Mach-Es

So you're just going to post outside pics, no interior pics, no review of any kind?

I feel like this is somehow worse than Ford's review embargo.

Have you even been on this forum the past 2 months? ?

He just joined yesterday to post this. I don't think he realizes yet what he's thrown himself into...

I thought that too but then noticed his only post just happens to be in this thread? He must've been watching from the outside.

Also, what Pirelli tire is that? Either the pic is a little blurry or there's basically no tread in the center strip sections.
