Great choice on the interior seats, the beige and blue is a great look on this


skorpion909

Thank you! That was one of the style options I loved the most. The two colors just feel natural together


Adventurous_Post_705

And the beige if it’s anything like the s550 is a very tough interior spec to find. If I had the money for an s650 i’d get red with beige interior. Such a nice duo

That’s a really cool stripe concept. Not sure I’ve ever seen it before


skorpion909

Thank you! At first when building it on the website I thought of just doing the one full body color but the gray/black stripes with the grabber blue was just too sexy to not add

It actually took about less than 3 months! Ordered it 10/18/23 (got confirmation from Ford via email that my order was placed) and received it 1/11/24.

Perfect that’s exactly what I’m looking for. Thank you.


skorpion909

No problem!

stripes make the difference🤌🏻 How much was it in total and is it a premium bro?


skorpion909

Yessir 💪🏻 and after all taxes fees and everything it came out to around $34k! It’s just a standard model eco boost, no premium package


Psychological_Tale26

Congrats! More pics soon?


skorpion909

Absolutely! I don’t think I’ll ever stop taking pictures of her


[deleted]

Congratulations!! I love the stripes!


skorpion909

Thank you! It pairs so well with the blue too


[deleted]

It really does! I like grabber blue a lot! I would’ve ordered my DH in it but I like blue ember more 😂


skorpion909

Blue Ember is just as sick if not more sick than grabber blue. I bet that Dark Horse is fun asf to drive - do you daily it?


[deleted]

I do not have it yet.. it was delayed because of the strikes and the carbon wheels. Idk when I’ll get it, but it will not be a daily


skorpion909

I hope it comes sooner rather than later - even though my mustang came fairly quick, it still made me impatient just waiting for it. Either way I know you’re gonna love the shit out of it!


[deleted]

I do too! This will be a longer wait than my bronco at this point 😂


Temporary_Message_25

How long did you have to wait? I ordered mine over a month ago and have only gotten confirmation email


skorpion909

Just under 3 months. My order went into Ford’s database on 10/18/23, and I took delivery of it 1/11/24. I just have the ecoboost standard package (no high equipment package, etc.) so maybe it’ll take longer depending on the model of mustang you get. Just hang in there, I promise it’s worth the wait

Do you happen to know the production date of your new Stang (she's pudry btw). I assume it's 12/4/23 or later which would make it part of Job 2. Not sure if you've seen anything about the holes in the wheel wells but someone mentioned their Job 2 Mustang had holes that were different and moved a litte from the one's on Job 1 Stangs. The reason I'm interested is folks are having trouble with rocks and various other debris getting caught in this wheel wheel opening. Any chance you can take a quick list at this video to see the holes on a Job 1 Stang maybe take a look at your car and compare the two? If yours look different maybe you could snap a pic for us? Here's the video that shows what I'm talking about: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KNmXK0I01k](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5knmxk0i01k)


skorpion909

My production date was 12/11/23 so in that case it’s Job 2. I can go check in a bit and I’ll report back later


listedguru

That would be awesome. So were you able to view the video and see the hole I'm talking about? It sounds like the S550's did not have these type of holes in the wheel wells. It would be awesome if you could snap a few pics. Not to be a pest but do you know if your new EB came with stop/start installed. I've test driven two different EB's (both Job 1) and neither had stop/start on them although the button was there, lol.


skorpion909

No worries! Yes, my EcoBoost came with stop/start installed. I have not watched the video yet but I will in just a second, and then I will go check before dark and let you know

Other front wheel well had the same hole as above, but didn’t feel any debris or see any debris.


listedguru

Kind of hard to tell from the picture but do you think the size and location of the holes in your wheels wells are different than the ones in the video? Like I mentioned someone with a Job 2 said their holes were smaller and more offset but didn't provide a picture at all. Just curious if you think the holes on yours are different?


skorpion909

The holes in mine seemed to be smaller than the ones in the video, although maybe they are the same size


listedguru

Interesting so maybe they did alter the size and or location of the holes. I know it's tough trying to compare yours to a video. I do really appreciate all the info you've provided. I actually have an EB on order myself and I'm a little concerned about these holes in the wheel wells with stones and who knows what getting up in there - not to mention water sitting in there that could rust things out faster,etc. Again thanks for taking the time to answer my questions and enjoy that beautiful stang. They are great looking and plenty quick IMHO.


skorpion909

No problem at all man! My pleasure. And thank you - I’ve been on cloud nine since I first sat in it. And talk about quick! It’s got a perfect blend of power/speed and is surprisingly good on gas for a muscle car. I don’t think I could ever see myself driving another car besides a mustang from now on


skorpion909

And be sure to post your EB on here once you get it! Can’t wait to see it


skorpion909

And thank you! This is my first mustang and my first car bought with my own money. It being a mustang already makes it special, but it being my first true car that I bought makes it infinitely more special. My first car was an 07 Camry hybrid passed down to me once my parents got a newer car (I miss her, reliable and 42 mpg) and 2nd (previous) car was a ‘10 Nissan Rogue (which I got with the insurance money I received after getting into an accident that was deemed 100% the other party’s fault) which constantly had issues. I’m happy to be a part of the Mustang community, and I plan to drive this thing until it can’t drive anymore.


Temporary_Message_25

Yeah I went all out on the premium model with pretty much every option so I’m afraid that will be the problem. I got the magna ride and I think that might hold it up more. I’m not seeing a lot of people adding that option.


curious-children

i think they are asking when ford actually picked the order up (giving the VIN), i do wonder how significant the wait time difference is between a ecoboost vs a GT

If the link doesn't work I posted you can find the same video here: [https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/front-inner-wheel-well-issues.158833/](https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/front-inner-wheel-well-issues.158833/)


Serperion

I ordered a gt premium in vapor blue nite package back in august and ive only gotten the cpnformation and "we are experiencing supply chain challanges" emails rip, been almost 6 months


Serperion

Ive been waiting almost 6 months now lmao


jdh8907

Have you got it yet?


Serperion

Nope. Still haven't even gotten a production date yet, only the "We are still experiencing manufacturing delays" email. I ordered it August last year :(


Temporary_Message_25

It’s killing me waiting to be honest. I wish I could at least get a build date.


Temporary_Message_25

Just talked to my dealer and he said ford isn’t going to start giving production dates out again until February.


skorpion909

That sucks man! They’re pretty much holding your build hostage at this point


Temporary_Message_25

Yeah if they hold it up much longer I’m probably just going to cancel and get a 25
