IT'S ORDERED!! :grininvasion:

Sorry if this is the wrong channel to post to, but I've just signed the contract on my new BA XR6 Turbo with:

5-Speed Manual Sedan

Mercury Silver

Leather Interior

Premium Sound System

Premium Brakes

Ford Alarm System

Sump Guard

Boot Liner

Momo Gear Knob

Pollen Filter

Scuff Plate

Mud Spats

Tint/Rust/Paint/Leather protection pack

Headlight Protectors

XR Floor Mats

Traded in my ol' faithful 1999 3.5L Magna Sports (gonna miss ya sweety!) :tears:

Took a manual Turbo for a test drive. Disabled traction control first thing ... not bad, not bad at all! :thumbsup:

Now I just have to tough out the wait ...

Are we there yet? How 'bout now? Is now good? ... Are we there yet ...

... should I go buy some decent cleaning stuff now ... or wait?

Congrats Mate!

I ordered mine on Thursday, maby we can race our dealers to delivery :thumbsup:

My specs were similar to yours except I went for auto, sunroof and no premium brakes. Full detains in the SIG.

I'm told that it should be ready some time in june but, they say you can tell when a dealer is lying to you when his lips are moving :lol: . Hopefully it will be some time around then.

Did you take advantage of the Falcon Freedom Pack?

I just spent the worst night of my life (maybe a small exageration!)

How can you sleep, knowing that you have to wait for a beast like the XR6T? My eyes are stinging, and I'm tired and grumpy!! I want my car ... NOW! Dealer says June, maybe?

... anyway, I asked about the Freedom pack and it worked out that I would only get about $1200 worth of value out of it, so we re-negotiated the deal and he ended up giving me about $1600 worth of free bits and pieces, e.g., sump guard, tint/leather/paint/rust protection, etc.

I have the Ford XR6T wallpaper on my computer, so I will be constantly reminded that my new baby is on the way.

Hope I get some sleep tonight :(

The Silver is subtle, quietly confident, not flashy and ready to take on mostly anything.

Bring em on!

I've found Merc/sil hides the dirt well also, welcome to the club, as has been said before, "you're gonna luv it"

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you will have plenty more sleepless nights. And they don't stop after you pick up the car. (Although after you get it, it's because you can't stop driving!) ;)

I can't stand this ... it's only been 12 days since I placed the order, and I can't think of anything other than my new baby (T) ...

I'm off my food, can't sleep, constantly grumpy and drinking to excess ... none of this behaviour has to do with the car, just thought I'd mention it.

Damn you Ford for delivering such an awesome car and not being about to build them instantly!!!

... gunna need more booze ...
