Mail anyone????

[timmy318]

Saw some people posting about wanting to know if anyone got their mail from FFR but it keeps on getting drowned out by the other posts :p! Things have really been picking up around here in 818 posts! Anyway, just wondering if anyone has heard from FFR about that package they said we would be receiving sometime soon.

[Mechie3]

Sadly no.

[wallace18]

Nothing yet. I am still hopeful it will come for Christmas. :cool:

[Jason Lavigne]

Hey guys - mailings went out yesterday with copies of the pre-orders for 818s and estimated production dates. You should see them soon!

Jason @ FFR

[JeromeS13]

Jason,

Do you know if this same information will be emailed? No one is at my house and I am currently in Afghanistan.

[WIS89]

Jerome-

Thanks for your hard work over in the sand box; stay safe and take the fight to the enemy!

Regards,

Steve

Thanks for that but we've already received our email! Now we're just waiting for an actual hard-copy from FFR with some more juicy details!

EDIT: At least I think that we've received all our emails :p

[RM1SepEx]

Just to get out in front of this...

No complaining if you feel you get slighted in kit delivery order! Although Factory 5 has decided to go w/o an official beta builder program we can all understand that they need kits finished rather rapidly vs languished on for years. I expect Dave will put some consideration into that when the delivery order is determined...

My date will not be published on this forum...

My thoughts exactly!

[Mechie3]

Checked the mail today, nothing from FFR. I've found, though, that first class mail now takes up to 5 days when my parents send me something from upstate NY to Indy.

[NHRed65]

It was in today's mail. I ordered at the end of November and requested delivery in 2014 which is when they have me scheduled.

AWESOME NEWS MAN!!!!!! Sadly, I think it didn't get to our distribution center in time and wasn't placed on the truck :( so I guess I'll have to wait until monday!

[metalmaker12]

I got mine this morning, I am in very good shape in summer 2013. Very good news, I am excited.

[Mechie3]

Are people not posting dates because they don't want others to get mad they aren't first in line?

[RM1SepEx]

mine was delivered today as well... see post 14

now back to the garage... repaired beater winter Miata this AM, time to get other stuff cleaned up for winter, first snow tomorrow PM,I need to get my wife's Deville in the garage tomorrow!

[Kwizatz-haderah]

Got mine. I'm scheduled for Nov 2013

[Rasmus]

Received. 818R. December 2013.

[Bradyman]

My letter came today. December next year. Better than I was anticipating actually.

[JeromeS13]

All that are receiving the notifications in the mail, are these the dates that you requested? And, what number on the list were you (in the thread)?

Thanks!

[Rasmus]

Received. 818R. December 2013.
I didn't request any date. I just wanted mine ASAP.

[metalmaker12]

the dates are given by FFR

[timmy318]

UGHHH!!!!! I hate waiting like this :p! Have to wait until monday to get my letter from FFR..... Hopefully got an early date

[JeromeS13]

the dates are given by FFR

Understood. But, I'm sure not everyone said "ASAP" on their pre-order form. So, I'm just trying to get a basis of who requested what, what number they were on the pre-order thread, and when they're scheduled to get theirs.

BUT, this list is by no means official and as somebody stated earlier somewhere else on the forum FFR may have shuffled the pre-orders to make them easier and more efficient to ship.

On this list I'm #16 but according to FFR I'm #31. Works fine by me either way.

I did get the order number in my mail on Friday but it said Timmy318, I called FFR right away and cancelled that order. Told them there must me some mistake. Hopefully know one here is Timmy318.

Oh and I canceled the lambo door hinges too.

Lol, lovvvvvvvvvvvve it, yeah my mail was to Timmy 318 as well, I just threw it out. I never even ordered the "lamo"doors either. J/k timmy your getting yours soon, and you will have a good date for sure.

My number on our list was 7, I believe I am FFR#16 and i said asap. I am happy to get it in the summer, I might have a shot to get er done by falls end and be one of the very first to take it on the streets.

I knew something was up here!!! :p

[longislandwrx]

Where was this magical place number you are all refering to?

[Jeff Kleiner]

Got the letter today. It had a tentative build date along with instructions on how to do the secret handshake (oops, was I supposed to reveal that?).

Jeff

[timmy318]

Proud to say that I got my mail and that my order wasn't cancelled (metalmaker12 & kalstar) :p! Scheduled for late July and I'm hoping that everything goes smooth at FFR so it'll arrive then or maybe even a little bit earlier. If it arrived on the 2 it'd make a pretty awesome birthday present :D!

[Mechie3]

Wait....you guys got letters?








All I got was this massive box blocking my garage. ;)



(truth be told...I'm still at work and haven't been able to get my mail yet).

[wallace18]

Got my letter today. Early August. I was hoping for sooner but I can wait, even though it is killing me.

[philly15]

so the date that says payment required by is the date we are talking about correct?

[timmy318]

Believe so

[philly15]

Believe so

dang that blows looks like im going to have to take on another project until then i got January 2014 :/

[bromikl]

Christmas came early for me. Ship date much earlier than expected: less than a year. Boy do I have some stuff to get ready!

[philly15]

so im assuming there will be other info to come as far as shipping and possible add ons wasnt really a whole lot of info in the letter other than the initial price and date

[timmy318]

so im assuming there will be other info to come as far as shipping and possible add ons wasnt really a whole lot of info in the letter other than the initial price and date

If you vist the website their are some add-ons that they're thinking about offering. I'd imagine that around Spring of next year they'll have some more info regarding the 818 and the add-ons that they're thinking of. Gotta get christmas/new years outa the way first though!

[Roy]

Ours came today
Nov. 23, 2013

yea saw that so im assuming at some point there will be an email or something asking if we want to add stuff and all that man i dont wanna wait a whole year!

[FFRSpec72]

So got my letter in mail. 818R with October delivery but price was higher, I though that the R was to be 1K cheaper not more?

[longislandwrx]

No Dave stated the R will be 1000 more due to the more developed cage and a more advanced suspension iirc.
I will try and locate the post for you.

OK, missed that post, pointer would be appreciated!, so now my budget is already over by 2K and not even started.

[longislandwrx]

https://www.factoryfive.com/order-a-kit/818-order-form/

Still looking for the post the order form listed the price at 10900 for the R. perhaps an option might be call FF as it gets closer and tweak your order, get an s with no carpet, and the short windshield etc etc make an R out of the S and save some money.

[timmy318]

Well, under the configure your 818 kit it gives you two options:
- 818S
- 818R (+$1,000)

[C.Plavan]

My 818R is coming in Dec 2013.

I think the R is more because of better cage, shocks, steering column/wheel, and mirrors

[longislandwrx]

Sorry, should have read:

make a car that looks like an R out of the S and save some money.

[MurrayT]

Got my confirmation letter from Factory Five dated December 11, 2012.
My scheduled delivery date for my 818-R is November 9, 2013.
Further out than I expected but it is good to have a date to plan for.
Visiting the Factory Five SEMA booth in 2013 will be extra special for me.
SEMA 2013 ends on Nov 8 and my 818-R will be ready for pickup the next day.
I will be counting the days.....
