I did mine the same way. Except I never went to the dealership. And never signed anything until I picked up my OB. Entered my configuration via the Ford site. Dealer contacted me via email. I sent a copy of my DL via email. All communication was via email until the day I picked it up. No dealer...
If you spotted the engine cover on the shelf, it is from my wife’s ES350. They made the engine bay look beautiful, but provided lots of cover for nesting rodents, so off with the cover.
Picked up my BS OB last night. Just tried and the fuel door opens even when BS is locked. During my pre-delivery walk-thru I specifically asked about locking fuel door. Salesperson said it locked with the doors but some people were opting for the locking cap.
My order was confirmed on 29 October 2021. Today, 11 March 2022 I received an email telling me my BS OB was in. Picked it up tonight. It’s in its new home.
I feel your pain. Mine was built at the same time as yours and I was told delivery between 3/8 and 3/14. I know I’m still in that window, but I never heard from Ford and only occasionally from the dealer. I used Ford’s website to track progress on the three random days each week it was up and...
2013 Subaru BRZ. It got to the point where very few of my peers could get in and out of the car easily. Plus we’re thinking of going to one car (plus a golf cart and FFR roadster) and the BS is one of the few vehicles we both agree on.
Mine says the same thing. When it Changed to final preparation, I lost the estimated delivery date. I’ve also been checking dealer inventory. about 10 days ago there were no cyber orange in stock within 100 miles. Yesterday there were 19. Hoping my cyber orange is among this group that was just...
On the status page, under “Vehicle Details” I’ve seen four items. Ordered On, Order Number, VIN, and Estimated Delivery. Estimated delivery was 03/14/2022. This morning, estimated delivery is no longer there. I was cautiously optimistic about my delivery when I noticed multiple dealers in my...
The web page appears to have been updated. It no longer has a field for the VIN. one of the messages that scrolls by says consumers should contact their dealer.
We just took my wife’s 2007 Lexus ES350 in for a new alternator. It has a lighted start button. So does my 2013 Subaru BRZ (built by Toyota). They gave us a brand new Lexus NX300. Its start button? Same as the 2007 ES and 2013 BRZ. Except no light. So it’s not just Ford thing. As far as the...
I just bought two. I know the reviews are less than stellar, but I have tried dryer sheets, moth balls, rodent repellent spray, and rodent bait traps. The same wires (wire bundle on the top of transmission containing wires for cruise control and neutral safety switch among others) have been...
My order was confirmed on 10/28/2021 with production scheduled week of 01/31/2022. An email from the dealer said build was scheduled for 02/03/2022. Status went to in production on 01/28/2022. Stayed that way until 02/08/2022 when both in production and built status got a check mark with the...
This was in the news the other day…

I would walk away from a dealer who wanted $5k over sticker. I might ask him what risk on the way out the door.
