Email from Ford AU today confirming car has shipped.


We’re pleased to say that you’re now one step closer to being behind the wheel of your new Ford Mustang.

Your Ford Mustang is on a ship and is headed to Australia.

From the Baltimore Port, your Mustang will now travel south towards the Caribbean Sea, through the Panama Canal, and across the South Pacific Ocean to arrive here in Australia.

From there, it will then need to pass through Customs and be shipped to your Dealer. However, due to current local port congestion issues, there may be further transportation delays for your vehicle.

We’ll be in touch again when your Mustang has arrived here in Australia. You can also contact Coffey Ford for an update on the delivery time of your new Mustang, by quoting your NSC order number: XXXX. Please be aware that due to current shipping issues. Coffey Ford may have limited information about the status of your vehicle, however rest assured we are working around the clock to deliver your vehicle as soon as possible.

Thanks for your patience.

I was just advised by Ford that my Dark Horse will be ready to collect at an agreed date after the 26th of August....

Is August 26th the official launch date for Ford of Australia?
Would presume some of these early arrivals will be covered by the motoring journos (who are only allowed to say nice things about what they are reviewing!) and the embargo date is 26/8.

It appears like that's the case. In the last couple of the days I've recieved more communication from my dealer than I have in two years and they seem to be pretty firm on a 26th of August arrival at their shop.

Thought I'll add. I got my Vin for my Gt today.

Yellow Splash
Gt Manual
Maganride
Recaros

Segmentation was July 3

I can see yellow isn't a popular pick.

I can see yellow isn't a popular pick.

Always good news to get a VIN assigned.
Even better is when you get advised it was actually built!

YS was definitely on my short list.
Push come shove, I wasn't game enough to gamble 100% liking it or not, sight unseen.
Images on the internet are one thing, but seeing it for real can be another.
However, YS could end up being a "rare" S650 colour, as it was deleted for MY25.

 

[Lightning17GT]

I’m just hoping my comes on time at the end of November. I don’t want to get rolled over to a MY25 car. Since US cars have a fairly sized price increase.

Segmentation was July 3

What is the segmentation now ?

 

[Deano1978]

Yeah Seg dates between 1/7 and 5/8 are being pushed out due to the plant shutdown/parts shortage.

Mine was supposed to be 2nd July, then 30th July, and is now 16 Sep.

 

[VapourBlueGT777]

2 Weeks ago I was told that mine (Vapour Blue GT, Auto Black Pack) was suppose to be build in July with ETA on 15/1/25.

I still do not have a Segmentation Date or VIN, but was only contacted recently to confirm my order and price.

I suppose it will be build Aug/Sep, and with the break in the US, I suppose realistically make it to Melb Jan 2025?

Anyone else in a similar position?

 

[Brumby5.0]

I have a vista screen shot saying a segmentation date of : Today! (18 July) and an eta of 22nd Oct.
I am dubious that this will remain, as I have ordered the black pack option!
