Once you get your VIN. it is on average about two weeks till your car is built give or take any shortages or limited parts for certain options..

FordETIS look up
Here you can see the Factory Build date once your car is scheduled (the date will look wonky till then) and what your car has for options (note there is a delay from the time your car is built to the time the info appears of a few days)

Tracking your car with the ETTX number
I just found some instructions on how to track your car if you have the ETTX number (the rail car number).

CSX

1. Call CSX at 1-800-235-2352
2. When prompted for location or weight, press "1" on your phone for location.
3. When prompted for the car initials, say ETTX then wait for the next prompt. OR key in 32-81-81-92 (for ETTX)(letter and position on your phone)
4. When prompted for the car number, say or key in your 6-digit ETTX car number
5. When prompted for next car say DONE.
6. That's it, enjoy your updated status report.

what does the ETTX number look like on the window sticker ?

Here is my vin 3FADP4GX2EM158342

 

[rodmoe]

Rail car number I got was ETTX 902068
Dealer wont have that till its loaded and ready to or has shipped

Mine looked like this and I asked for it as soon as I had a built date and knew it was going to be shipped soon...
So he emailed me a screen shot of their visibility report...

This is great news for you. I wonder why mine is still idle in Mexico. I guess they just screwed it up or something is wrong with my car.

I called Ford Performance yesterday and they said no update since Sept 26
I called my dealer yesterday and he said no update also.

that does suck, i have an eta of the 26th october now. i hope it stands.
also hope yours is coming on same load, maybe your dealer sucks at getting info.

ask your sales manager for the ETTX number for your car. it should have been shipped

I just spoke with Ford Customer Service Canada. They told me my car is still in production for some reason. I think I'm going to cancel and grab one off the lot I found a black one. This really sucks man, waiting for 3 months just to run in to a production glitch, out of all the cars they make, mine had to get dropped or crushed by a crane. Oh well, my luck sucks I already know this.
