Honestly don't know, but my suspicion is "no" based on what I've seen people with allocations saying.
It's in the brochure but there will be a bunch of considerations on when cars get delivered. For example, they will not be delivering cars to cold weather climates in the dead of winter, they will try and ship cars to the same geographic area when they can, they will be trying to be as efficient as possible in batching orders based on option preferences, etc. In 05/06, it was pretty common to see batches of cars with the same paint jobs all going down the line at SSV at the same time. Will be the case here as well. Would also assume some options like extended color palette will probably delay your timeline a bit, especially if you want something complex.

Trust the Ford team and trust the process. The buyer has the leverage and with all of the smart successful people on here there will be plenty of well respected dealers who would fight for the opportunity to gain some very good customers. Just my 2 cents.
Ok, I think that I am seeing the big picture here. First your worried about the dealer charging you over sticker and then you would like to beat him up on price. Now,I know who invented the one way sign. I just want to follow this thread 2 years from now.

WHEW! This has been weighing heavily on my mind. Ever since when the 05's first came out and and the only GT in my area was sold at 120% over MSRP
to someone from the local tribe with casino royalty's. That same dealer must be salivating at the idea of selling the new car. Thank you Dave, thank you!!

I m pleased and feel fortunate to have an allocation and a bonus to purchase one at MSRP!
The question is where to purchase. Many dealers can sell the NGT by applying to Ford and a nominal fee. However those who will become a service center will have a significant investment (special trailer, tools, designated area and mechanics training)! Therefore most will be in an urban area. I have purchased various Fords in the past at various local dealers to spread the business around in a small rural community. (all patients of mine!) I always felt buy local and when servicing is required the dealer who you bought it from will always give you better service. My problem is the none of them would become a servicing center , just does not make economic sense.
I would prefere to purchase from a servicing dealer to establish a relationship. I hope there will be a list of servicing dealers available to contact

I talked to my dealer today, he assured me that they would not charge over MSRP. He has also filed the paper work to be a servicing dealer too.

Graduated from U ofA in '68. Survived a record winter of it not getting warmer than -20F for 60+? days the winter of '68. Stay warm my friend. If left Alberta for TX in '72 and only miss the skiing.
Gentlemen,
I think this whole thing has gone great. Buying the new GT at MSRP is excellent. I can't wait to get mine home.

I get back just in time to head to Lincoln road mall to watch the lovely Halloween outfits go by. Been hunting all week and met up with these two. Perhaps some of you may recognize the mugs

Frank looks like he is holding something behind his back. Be careful.

Yes, welcome to the Ingot Silver that is actually lighter than the color in the configurator.

Frank sure likes to hang around dead things. Sorry, I don't mean you Maxemus.
