terms mean.

Supposedly, Ford will be doing two runs of cobras. What I call prepack is
like the GT, this is the list of upgrades you get, and thats what you get.

The built-to-order, youre supposed to be able to pick and choose your
options, i.e. blower or not, myColor or not, etc. etc.

This is the first I have heard of a build to order option for the Cobra,
expanding the customizable option list which was previously limited to
color, wheels, and spoiler or not. Could you provide additional
information?

I asked my local dealer about this, and he said "impossible." Please, scan a copy of
your order so I can finally expose this guy for the liar he is.

Sure. ITs only got my name, social security number, address, phone number,
and bank account number on it.

Ill get RIGHT on posting that for you there carl. Stop trying to troll. Or
at least do a better job of it.

Hmmm... I don't think I've ever had a sales receipt from an auto dealer that
displayed (or even needed) my SSN. Besides, you could always obscure your
personal information, like you did with your license plate:

http://www.hzdev.net/gallery/images/...eels%20004.jpg
http://www.hzdev.net/gallery/images/...eels%20008.jpg

Nevertheless, I can understand why one would be hesitant to post a sales
order. Please give me the number of your dealer, so I just telephone
him myself. I'm considering a down payment myself, but can't find a
local dealer willing to take one.

Thanks in advance.
