May I take this moment to thank "elnorte" and "JohnnyST" for all their info leading up to this eve of production of our STs. Sounds like you guys are right there in the thick of it. And also I hope everybody at the Wayne plant had a good weekend is ready to assemble the next best thing to hit the streets of the US!! I wonder which one of us will be the first to get their hand on their new ST?? Looking through my spring issue of "My Ford" magazine I see the cars on the assembly line are all of the same color. Maybe this too will add how they are produced?? Don't see any T.S. Ti's out there do we?? I work in a refrigeration plant in the midwest and I know here color is the first thing on how schedule is made up. But there again, a refrigerator doesn't have 252 hp!!! My hats off to all involved at Wayne Mich. Russ

Hey Russ color means nothing... I've worked at several assembly plant building such cars and trucks as..... Expedition...Navigator..Ls.. Thunderbird..Towncar..Mazda6...Mustang..F150...Raptor... and they always come down the line in random order. So I can say for a fact solid color runs don't happen.

Hey good to know. You guys are probably more organized than we areL LOL!!

I'm hoping that color is the explanation for why my dealers stock order for a silver ST2 has a vin# and my performance blue has yet to be assigned a vin or build date. Although I know the two aren't related, I'm #31for the gopro promotion, and he didn't get his order in until recently when he had to reschedule it from an ST3.
But back on topic, yes thank you guys.

No problem friend. I know a lot of people on this forum are very active when it comes to hunting down leads and getting answers and for the folks that don't have the privilage of living so close to the plant or work for ford And can't get info for themselves I (along with elnorte im sure) like to poke and prod so any info I receive I enjoy sharing with all of you. I'm just as anxitious as all of you to get my ST and I'm quite looking forward to this community building up as it is showing to be a very friendly place with a welty of knowledge to be shared with all members of the forum. Thanks again

It says a lot that both of you are buying these for your personal transportation!

 

[Bizzaroh]

I agree with OP. One of the huge bonuses on this forum is having some voices from behind the "blue curtain". A number of indirect comments especially from elnorte have steered me into the package I'm purchasing and have helped back up my decision against my second guessing conscience. It has helped me decide that this is the car for me.

Thank you!

I've thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this forum over the last month. It's made the anticipation--and experience as a whole--that much more enjoyable. I haven't been this excited about something since I was a kid waiting on Christmas. Thank you guys for all of the great information.

 

[busster06]

OH!!!! And shame on me!!! Thank You too Lisa! You have kept us all under control and not let the rumor mill run wild. Russ

Actually, they started being built tonight in body shop. They will actually start rolling off the line sometime tomorrow. I worked last night stocking the line with ST parts. It was kinda fun to drive around and see the wheels, tires, exhaust on line. I didn't see any engines though. I put the engine covers on line last night. They're the last thing to go on your ST before she gets go-go juice. ST is ALIVE! ST is ALIVE!

 

[hamiltonian]

Awesome news! Thanks elnorte for keeping us informed.

:yay: Thank you sir! Wish we had the bow down smiley!

Too bad they wont let you post photos.

Unfortunately, my shift is tues-fri. So, I won't get the pleasure of seeing the first one off the line.

It's going to be fun hearing how these ST roll down the line
