not a hatch but Mustang with trackpack2 and Camaro LE can be had for under 50 and both faster on and off the track. Only if Ford made a 4door mustang to compete with the 3 series, they would have a winner.

I should've stated I was referring to 4 door cars, the Camaro 1LE is a performance car bargain extremely cramped though.

I heard from some smaller Midwest dealers that weren’t apart of the initial allocation that they were both told by district leaders to expect an allocation in the coming weeks. One specifically said in 3 weeks, 2 weeks ago. More information that is, not the car itself.

The only new car that outperforms the FL5 for $50k OTD is another FL5. Too much Chevrolet in those Cadillacs

100% and the only reason I'd personally even consider a Blackwing or CT4-V is that the FL5 I'm getting is 61k OTD. Looks like I found one Blackwing for 70k OTD nearby, hope to see it tomorrow. That's only a 9k upcharge for a much different tier of 4d vehicle. If they wanna come down when I threaten for a deposit refund, then absolutely no issue. But I suspect they have more buyers lined up.

70k OTD is a good deal on a Blackwing. Go for it

Hope they're right!

Great! Just in time for the cars to get allocated and wait in Richmond to never get shipped!

Maybe they’re waiting for more cars to show up so they can make more efficient runs to certain areas?

Glad to hear information about the FL5 for our UK friends! They'll probably get their before the Midwest and east coast lol.

I saw a video on FB showing FL5's in a transport truck, but they said they were heading TO Richmond. I'm not putting too much stock in it, but any clue why they would have left the port to be returned again?

Oh man I hope not, I don't know that that makes very much sense either.

I just want my car man ?

Yea, but it has the massive downside of being the automatic one. Probably why it's available ?. I can't find a new manual anywhere.

Order one from the factory.

Order one from the factory.

Yea and then wait over a year

based on some posts I wonder if this article speaks to the delivery delay. Never realized how screwed the US rail system is right now.

Yes. This is exactly why our cars are still sitting in a port in Cali. It's the railroads that are backed up, not the truck drivers. If they had loaded onto car transport trailers we would already have our cars.

Just had a dealer in the Houston area call to tell me that their CTR is en route, expected delivery "next week".

Not sure how reliable that is considering the fact that everyone else has been walking back the expected arrival dates for a solid month now, but figured it'd be an interesting data point.
