When I took exams in college I never went back to change an answer or ponder a question. I went with my first answer & was usually the first one done. It worked as I had good grades! I did the same for my GT application!

Ed

Agreed! Never look back!

Of course, I did have to go back once. But, it was out of my control. I've already ordered the larger flash drive memory, but I didn't want to risk swapping it before I completed my application. And...It crashed anyway. Fortunately, no major damage, just had to go back a little.

Whew. And I am done. Signed, Sealed, Delivered. 4:35 PST.

Tomorrow at 10:59 PM EST is our cut off time correct ?

Check the date at this Forum link.

or http://www.fordgtforum.com/forums/showthread.php/32144-The-Ford-GT-Application-Process-Begins

If the link doesn't work.....

The Application

The application process begins immediately and runs until May 12, 2016 at 11:59 PM EST. Ford will select the first 500 owners of the new GT from those who apply. This bit is important: It’s not necessary to burn up your keyboard, furiously typing to get in your application because the order in which applications are received is irrelevant to your selection. You have 30 days to get your application in, so no need to rush. Applicants will receive status notifications beginning 90 days from the close of the application period.

The Ford GT Concierge Service

Ford has crafted a new customer experience specifically for Ford GT customers with a new, GT-only concierge service. Recipients of a new GT allocation will work directly with a personally-assigned concierge throughout their ownership process. This includes initial ordering, vehicle configuration, all the way through delivery and beyond into your first years of ownership.

“The purchase process for the Ford GT is as unique as our all-new supercar,” said Henry Ford III, global marketing manager, Ford Performance. “We understand GT customers are strong ambassadors for Ford Motor Company, and we look forward to providing them a service as distinct as the car itself.”

The Ford GT Configurator

The Ford GT also gets an all-new configurator, where potential owners and fans alike can sort view a nearly endless assortment of combinations. At this time, Ford has chosen to reveal 8 base paint colors (including the much-desired Liquid Blue), 7 stripe colors, 5 caliper colors, 4 interior packages, and 2 wheels options (one with 3 finishes and the other with 2). There are literally thousands of combos to build, compare and share on the net.

What a great experience. Thank you Ford for building all generation GT's. I am a realist and understand I have about a 2% chance of being chosen to buy a NFGT. I am good with that (honestly). One day I will own one. May not be for a few years, but I will patiently wait. Cheers!

EST is 5 hours behind GMT so my math is showing 10:59.. PM EST is the cut off ..The terms and conditions say 3:59 AM GMT is the cut off time.. so the statement above appears to be an hour off.. unless the is a DLST adjustment,,, ?? ..

Great! For a second there, I thought you might end up in Sinovac's application related thread. Something about a spoiled fruit.

My math is lacking, so I finished submitting just before 5pm PST. Just in case.

Speaking of fuzzy math, why so many days between our submission deadline and the deadline for China, Macau, and the Philipines?

Somehow, I failed to complete the application process a couple of days ago and got a heads up email from Ford Program Headquarters - now have an application submission confirmation from GTAPPSUP. Perhaps Ford is helping us along with the process.

It says 11:59PM (one minute before midnight). I think there are still 12 hours. (At least, in the USA).
