T minus 2 months Prospective NFGT applicants. Now T-1

[/B][/B]Yeah! We've past the first trimester. Only two more months until NFGT selection process may begin. It's getting harder to sleep. I'm trying not to put the cart before the horse but it's quite challenging. I find myself playing with the NFGT configurator on a fairly frequent basis. Is this normal???

How many of you have already settled on a color scheme should you be so lucky to be selected? (Also For those that already have a NFGT, did you pick a color before being notified?)

After seeing Tomy's White / Blue Stripes car in person, it's going to be hard not to go with that amazing looking combo.

Would be tempted to do the same blue / white combo on my 2005 to match. Has anyone used that color on a new GT yet ? I don't remember seeing one.

And then there are the “ out of the box series “ i.e Carbon and other combos that may be offered by then.

Is everyone having the re-occurring nightmare of waking up in cold sweats at night, finding the notification email went to junk mail, and realizing an hour after the 10 day deadline to respond??

Haha...

On the plus side, there is no such thing as a bad color combo. Or if there is, I haven't seen it yet.

Looks good in so many different hues and shades. So, hard to mess up.

Of course, there are some really amazing colors, so it would of course be a dream to create something truly unique and stunning.

T minus ONE MONTH!
If my application correspondence from Ford is correct, NFGT allocations could start in less than a month...March 7. It’s getting harder to sleep. Good luck to all

Clarification on possible date would be great. Either way I'm fine, aside from the added anxiety.

I first saw comments when the application dates were published stating April 2019 notification. But when I submitted my application I got the following email response stating 90 days from application deadline which would hint to early March....
"MARCUS,

You can return and edit your application up until the application submission deadline of approximately 12:01 PM GMT on December 7, 2018 for applicants in the participating territories.

good luck to all!
My Number is up! Agonizing over ordering color options!! Fortunate to get CF series! down to one exterior color, can't decide on accent package yet! (Conservative versus bold!) Have not seen many GTs in person so difficult to make final decision! Want it to be right no regrets! Life time opportunity for me! Thank you Ford! Can't imagine extended palette option! Congratulations to those who did!!

Each year has its own very special Heritage edition to include the CF model. So I will wait and see the options and go big at the end. Once in a lifetime for me.
