Can the front and rear stabilizers be seen easily? What should I look for (I want to verify they exist on a V6 Im looking at). Thanks.

I have heard that Ford wont build a Pony with a 5 speed but I went to ebay and saw some for sale.
 
I still havent heard anything from Ford (ordered one about 2 weeks ago) ...
 
Whats a VOC?
 
I am hoping that I can get the car I want.
 
WHY wouldnt Ford build a Pony Package with the 5 speed? WHY?? What would the logic be??

Hey yannick...saw the ebay listing & don't know what to say. It's interesting to say the least. I don't know why I was told differently when I was trying to order a v6 pony package with manual transmission. I also tried that "build your own car" feature & on Ford's website & it wouldn't let me do it. I'm a little bummed if that isn't the case since I had to get an auto trans... On a brighter side, the car is still a fun ride even with an auto trans so although I would've preferred manual, auto is still ok & my wife feels more comfortable driving it than a manual.
To answer your question about the VOC - it's a vehicle order confirmation sheet. Graphicguy has covered it before on this thread but basically it details, item by item, all the features & options (i.e. which tires, type of seats, type of stereo, etc.)of the car you ordered & it should list a priority code as well. The priority code is usually indicative how long it'll take to get your vehicle built & delivered. Priority 10 is pretty good. That's what I had & got my mustang in 6 weeks. Not every dealer will just offer up a copy of the VOC to so you should take the initiative & ask for a copy. It ensures that your car was ordered from Ford.

I wish the dealerships would be more open. I'm going to ask for the VOC and priority code, but I bet they claim that they do not know what it is, or they'll ask me 'what I need it for', they are defensive about sharing info. I ordered mine about 6 weeks ago, hadnt heard 1 word from the dealer so I emailed a couple of days ago, I got a 1 sentence reply that 'they hope to hear something soon'. Itll be worth the wait, but it would be nice to know how things are going.

Bad news I guess, I just got my VOC and my priority code on a V6 that I ordered about 5 weeks ago. My priority code is 80 which doesnt sound good. Who assigns these numbers, did my dealer assign an 80 to me? & Does this mean that Itll take 6 months to build my car?

Thanks for the heads up. I will ask for the VOC tomorrow and see what the deal is - and I will definitely let you know what I hear.
 
I am so hoping I can get what I want.

Changes to Car on Order? by stray

Is it possible to make changes to a car already ordered.
I ordered a V6 Premium 4 weeks ago. After reading about and looking at many pictures of the '06 Mustangs I am thinking about making some changes to the vehicle I ordered.
 
I believe the dealer got the DORA already. Will a change in my order cause a long delay; or, is it early enough to change an order without causing problems?
 
Any advise is welcome.

Nevermind. I drove thru a dealership with 20 mustangs in the lot. Saw one equiped alot like the one I ordered and have decided to stick with the original order. Looks as good up close as I originally thought it would.

Wow an 80 priority code does not sound good at all. You might want to expect a few months delay in getting your stang. Dealers are the ones who assign priority codes usually based on how strong a sale it is or how anxious they are to make a sale. For some reason your dealer may not be taking you seriously or they may have other orders/sales that will yield them more profit.
