Good news and bad news. Bad news is that I called the dealer and my car will be delivered the week of January 18th. Thats almost exactly 8 weeks since I ordered it, which aint bad I guess. The good news is that they told me my priority code moved from 99 to 10 the day I ordered it. The question I have is if Ford really takes some sort of two week break at the end of the year - that was the reason they gave me for the descrepancy (told me previously the car would be delivered before the new year). They also said it would probably be delivered earlier because they will go get teh car before it goes on the truck, which may shave a week off the delivery date. ANY feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

Hey Graphicguy...if you're out there, I wanted to tell you as of last Friday, Dec. 16th, I'm finally the proud owner of my 2006 Premium Mustang GT! Funny, it was exactly 13 months to the date I ordered my 2005 that I got my 2006...you know the my story on that one. The dealer said had I not bugged the crap out of Ford I still most likely wouldn't have it. Of course the day it arrived, there was a nasty Wisconsin snow storm going on, waited till the next evening to get it and the roads still were not the best, but got her home! I must say, it handles much better on slick surfaces compared to my 96 mustang, the traction control made an amazing difference. I managed to get my 96 stuck in a vacant parking lot that hadn't been plowed of snow the week before and had to be pulled out by my hubbys SUV...oops. The torch red is such a bright red, under lights outdoors it almost looks orange. Is a beauty. Even tho I had the V8 in my 96, I can definitely feel the extra power under the hood in the 06. Can't wait to have some good dry roads that I can put the pedal down and have some fun with it. The higher raised hood takes a bit to get used to seeing over, more room for front seat passengers, but wow, only a little kid could fit in the back seat...but who cares....I love it! The My Color feature is fun, not a bad sounding 500 watt stereo. The exhaust still could be more meaty sounding, my 96 had special pipes put on, so it growled. Eventually I may put different pipes on this one, but so far am actually enjoying it being a bit quieter....LOL. Anyway, wanted to pop in and tell you it's finally here, Merry Christmas to me...yea!! I needed some cheer in my life, as I just lost my oldest brother to a horrible car accident just 3 weeks ago...a 72 VW bug vs an SUV, the other driver fell asleep at the wheel, hit my brother at 3am in the morning on his way to work, only 2/10 of a mile from his driveway...so it's been a rough go the past few weeks. Take care, hope you have a great 2006....!

Replying to: shine (Dec 25, 2005 5:24 pm) Five months on the dealers lot? I'd shoot for invoice or within a few hundred of invoice at the most. The 2006s have been out too long for them to dally. |

I think I found the last 2005 Mustang GT convertible in metro Atlanta. 5-speed, interior upgrade, wheels, leather boot, 150 miles on the odometer. Buying for $2000 below invoice (getting the $750 Katrina relief rebate). In the process of looking for other 2005s I found another premium GT at Adamson Ford in Birmingham. They beat the deal I have here by $100 but that Mustang is over $2000 more expensive since it's an automatic and has the Shaker 1000. Both dealerships have been great but I've put my deposit on the one in Atlanta. I've requested they replace the "premium wheels" with the stock 5-spokes. Picking it up Saturday. |

As much as I would love the GT Im being offered a V6 Premium, Automatic, Pony Pkg, Security Alarm, Side air bags, Interior upgrade pkg, leather seat. They are offering 21,500. Decent price?
