Update on Mach-E launch progress from engineering friends in Mexico

[Mopey]

Yeah, I was wondering that too. I can't remember quite when, but I think those pictures of cars there one day then most gone a few days later were presumed to be the tour/show cars. I'm thinking that was maybe a month+ ago, but I could be wrong.

There's enough lots and spare room that some shots could still show mostly empty lots while the other side is packed full, but that does seem unlikely (i.e. if they're gonna post pictures, it would seem like they'd show the lot with 1000 cars, if it that existed). Leaving us to wonder if they are moving them to another holding spot to await OKTB? Looks like there should be around 3000 (FCTP+customer) awaiting OKTB now.

There is a new satellite image collection window starting on 10 Dec. If there is clear weather, we can count the backed-up Mach Es ourselves. Hopefully they will begin shipping before next Thursday, though.

Maybe they are shipping them, and holding them in the US/Europe awaiting approval to sell.

Is this showing a Mach E that is ready to be shipped? ?

That particular car, GB FR KQZ771E, was first spotted in Rotterdam photo shoots on 9/23 and has been making the rounds in Europe since then. Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, and now Spain.

I still want to see those damn wheels without the aero cover. I'll probably have to take mine off to find out, though. I just hope there's a a cap for the hub like with the teslas.

Quick comment, I sure hope that the pics of the Mach Es with the molding around the wheel wells painted in the body color are those of preproduction models...

I personally find that the black moldings add a better overall look and balance to the car esthetics.... At least, if that's an indication we can trust, when you build one on Ford's site, the molding is black and there is no option to have it painted to the body color....

Body color wheel lips are for First Editions only - Premiums have black painted, and selects have plain black plastic (could be wrong on the selects...)

I'm with you on that I'd like to know too if you got to take all the lug nuts off or just a few of them definitely want to paint mine Sparkle Silver to look like the original version
