You are in the Ford Mustang Forum. Your Host is claires
I have DORA in hand for a 2008 GT500. How do I next go about acquiring the VIN# ? Thank you.

After Ford schedules it and issues a full vin your dealer will be able to print off an updated DORA showing the vin. Does your dealer know when their allocation for this car will be available? Depending on when their allocation comes up, it could be anytime from now thru June of 08. Usually they will get notification within 1 - 2 months prior of when the car will be scheduled to be built.

| I brought my sons Escape in this morning for an ABS related problem and I spoke to the owner about his 08 allotments. He had two last year for the 07, but he believes he will only get one this year. He said there was a meeting that took place in Detroit last week and he was waiting to hear what was decided. I guess the dealerships that had been allotted two last year may not get two for 08. | |

Replying to: rheller (Jun 24, 2007 3:51 am) Any luck on finding a locking gas cap yet? My baby is out of commission this week. Pulled the front passenger tire off yesterday and brought it this morning down to a local tire dealer. About a month or so ago I pulled up to a curb on main street and rubbed the curb with my front wheel. It's not that bad, but the rim is being sent out for repair. It should be back by Friday this week. Cost for repair including tire sensor strap that needs to be replaced should be around $230. Need to be more careful next to those curbs I guess.

When I get back from vacation in early August, I will probably get a little more aggressive with my dealer. Happy 4th of July! |

Shelbydude et al: Does anyone happen to know if there will be anything that visually distinguishes a 2008 GT500 from a 2007 model year? If you were a gambling man, what is your bet on a 2009 model year being produced? Thanks.
