Waiting On Your 2006 Order?

[Gangwar]

Settle down there Captain Keyboard! Just because you can place an order for a Shelby in March (which it not set in stone yet, if I am correct) does not mean the orderbank is open for all mustang orders! I really don't appreciate the jabs either about not knowing anything, and I actually thought I was helping by letting people know that they do not have to wait this long.

Most likely the orderbank will be opened for 07 mustangs in mid to late July, with a Job 1 build date somewhere in the August timeframe, which means a late August early September delivery.

The orders for a 2006 stang GT was being taken in june of 2005.....
This year I have heard from a very reliable person with ford and not a salesperson.Telling me that the orders will be taken on the first week of March of 2006 for 2007 Stang Gts....
Its going to be a short year for the 2006s and the 2007s will be out by Late June or 1st week of July of 2006.....
Now when March rolls around we will see if yea knew what yeaaaa were taking about.Its only about 2 months away.......
I am not saying you don't know whats up,I am saying most dealers and salespeople don't know whats up with the new Stangs for the year of 2007.......Lets see if I am wrong,I don't think so and I am not including the Shelbys...JT

Finally Got Her!

Well Ladies and Gentlemen I finally picked up my 2006 Mustang Premium GT coupe (Black, Dark Charcoal, 5 speed)! I went in Saturday morning to pick it up, the car actually arrived Friday. I was ready to do battle considering serveral factors:
1. Ordered October 13, 2005
2. Agreed upon $250 over invoice on a GT premium coupe with active alarm and interior upgrade package.
3. Locked in "over allowed" value for my trade in until I took physical delivery of the 'Stang.
4. Sales manager that agreed to above terms was no surprise fired 3 weeks ago.

I arrived a little after 9am on Saturday to pick up my new car and drop off my trade in. Was shown the car right away for inspection. Drove the car. "Perma" grin on face started that lasted all weekend. Came back and met with the F&I manager, pricing was not only honored, but was actually sold the GT for $150 over invoice, trade value for my car was honored, and I even talked them in to throwing in six oil changes!!!!! My wife who is used to this negotiating was impressed.

All I can say is I love my car, I look forward to driving it at every opportunity. One of my favorite things is simply listening to the sound as I start her.

Thanks to all the kind folks here that helped me through this long waiting process with support, info, etc.!!!!

This is my first 'Stang and will probably not be my last.

I think that I can speak for several here who are not only happy for you but maybe just a little bit envious as well.

that's a great deal on a great car ... and congratulations!

My GT

Thanks Shooter,

I have been planning on buying one of these beauties ever since I saw the first pics of the prototype which made us all drool. I did call all over and being in car sales in my past didn't hurt me either. I just love the feeling!

I ordered a 2006 black Stang Gt Premium at X-Plan on 07/07/05 and was givien a Dora and all that good stuff.Been calling my dealer up and they said i was the first to get a Stang Gt,,But they just got a 2006 red automatic,but i wanted manual trans.Anyway my dealer told me he pushed up my order and i will get a vin# soon.I even called the ford 800# and still C/U dammmm

Called a few dealers around the Pa. area and most had no Gts and all told me they will not give me X-plan even if they had the car.One dealer had a new 2005 but still wanted sticker dammmm

I called the last dealer about 40 mins away and see if they had any Stang Gts for sale at X-Plan and the salesmanager told me he had only 1 that he can sell at X-Plan....

I took my time in going to the dealer lolllll I was ratter slow at that lol...
Went inside and spoken to the salesmanger and showed him I had a X-Plan on the contract from the other dealer and thought since i didnot get the car yet that I might be able to use the same X-Plan number....

He told me screw the X-Plan and he'll give me the car at INVOICE...
I told him great so i bought a 2006 Satin Silver GT(really wanted Black}
And it has the 5 speed auromatic trans (really want Manual trans}
with the shaker 1000 (really only wanted the shaker 500}
With the red seats and custom dash board...

Sticker $30,125.00
iinvoice $27,857

Now i hope thats a deal....I asked the sales manager after the sale way did he sell me the only GT he had and the only one in the area,,and he said he wanted a sale lollllll.


yea baby the car is very nice.JohnnyT

Sorry you didn't get the car you wanted. Maybe you should of waited till March and ordered an 07.
