It is the same in houston tx. they all want msrp or msrp plus 2k to 4K on top. I guess ford really screwed up this time. I will just wait for another year or two. all the dealers have plenty of v6 models sitting on the lots though.

Uhhh...Yello? I was at the dealer saturday and he was able to give me pricing info.

I can post each options price, but to sum it up, i paid 21967 for the 06 Mustang.

The salesrep also signed the New Cehicle Purchase Plan Agreement and pricing sheet, including the section that says the vehicle is under price protection.

He also took a down payment of 500 bucks. Are you saying he lied to me and can't really order this? According to him, it goes into the system on wednesday.

Yeah, I'm not a lawsuit type. I'm naive enough to believe that right will eventually win the day.

Yellow-I have to agree w/ your logic about dealers' honesty and x-plan. The irony is that I would have been willing to pay msrp. I sent out e-mails to 5 or 6 dealers asking if they had any interest in x-plan on the stang. 3 dealers in the Atlanta area came back yes. I was under no time constraints, so I ordered one. I even told the internet manager that he could sell my car to someone else because I had another car I was considering. He said he didn't have another buyer so he would like me to take the car. The internet mgr has been straight-it's the GM who's trying to play hardball. He admitted that the dealer made an error on the order input, but is unwilling to even discuss something that sounds like compromise.

I'm patient, but I run a business where my mistakes are painful and get paid for by me personally if they are my fault. That's pretty basic to me. We'll see. I really appreciate you taking time to indulge me w/ my little problems.

I can't get too upset about it with all the good things I have to be thankful for.

i didnt mean you had to hire one, just mention you had contacted one, that may be all that is needed.

Be careful. Many companies, at hearing the L-word, will immediately cease all talks and end by saying "I am not authorized to talk with you anymore, you must have your lawyer contact our legal department directly." "I will note your file as such.

That's a good point GT-03. They also have more $ and lawyers to play with than I do.

The GM told me Tues that there was nothing more he could do if I wasn't willing to give my car back and let him order me another one. So I said tell me who's next on the food chain that I can appeal to. He acted very surprised that I didn't accept what he was offering. He said let me see what else I can do.

He calls me back today and tells me he has a gt vert on order w/o spoiler that he will swap out the trunklid for me which is what I was asking for all along.

Tues it was an impossibility; Thurs-he's glad to do it. Go figure.

I must say, you make a very good point GT-03. one of the things that make these forums so valuble is the ability to get advice from more than one person, with more than one expertise!

I can hardly wait for the new thread here... "I just bought a gt vert, and it has a spoiler. But Ford tells me it was not suppose to, and the sticker lists the spoiler delete option. Who can I sue?"

Please post copy of dora for all to see. This means you will have the first built 2006 and will take delivery afew days before ford anounces they are ready to take orders for the 06. Your dealer must really have an inside line with some sneaky little elves. Do you have a hole cut into the base of a tree to park your new mustang in?

First off, I wasn't able to post this on Saturday because as a poor Paramedic I was working 72 hour shifts all week.

Yellow, thanks for the not so subtle Flame

It seems I must be an F'n Elf because here in my little hands sits my DORA, it's too many KB to post here so if you'd like to volunteer to host it, I will proudly post it for all to see.

Oh ye of little faith

Thanks for the advice. It's encouraging when we can work out problems like adults.

I won't be at the TX event; I'm in Atlanta, so that's a bit far for me.

I have been watching this thread for a while now and have several questions as I also have a DORA dated 6/13/05 , but mine is for an 05 GT VERT.
Does a DORA mean that your car will be built? What number is everyone calling at FORD to find out the status of their cars? What info will I need when I call? price level 570, priority 11

I am by no means an expert at this, but I'll help as much as I can. After your dealer ordered your car you should have asked for a VOC (vehicle order confirmation), its a breakdown of what you ordered. Basically proof that an internal (dealer level) order has been placed. When your dealer submits the VOC to Ford, a DORA (dealer order receipt acknowledgement) is generated. Again, basically proof that your dealer submitted the order to Ford. Some say its generated one day after the order others say it is recieved on the following Thursday. I dont know as It took me a few days to get back to the dealer to pick up my DORA. Now this is where my info gets really fuzzy. I do not "believe" that your DORA is a build confirmation, just an acknowledgement that an order has been placed. Your order "may" be built as an '05 or it may not due to no more '05's being built.
As for the robot lady, check out themustangsource.com and search "ERL", you should find the info there. hope this helps. If i'm incorrect on something I'm SURE someone will be glad to point it out and laugh.

Found all of the info, called robot lady, got build date. Asked follow up question in "Dealer ordered my GT as...."
"My 05GT vert sonic blue manual IUP deluxe
ordered 6/13/05
DORA 6/13/05
scheduled for build week of 7/18
At this point can I just sit back and anticipate its arrival or do I still need to be concerned whether or not it will even be built? "

Odd. I checked my VOC and it has an order number of 9999, and a priority of 99 (!).

Does anyone have the phone number to robot lady?

Thanks
