Talking Finally, it is here, and soon it will be mine!

Aright... getting up at 7:00 to go 2+ hours to the dealer and pick up my car.

IS350
Sport Package
Black/Black
Nav, ML, Aero Kit, Spoiler

I have yet to see the aero kit/spoiler on a black car but they said it was a showstopper during PDI that all the techs and the people in the waiting room came in when it came off the truck. Hope no one put their greasy mitts on it!

Pics as soon as I get back to the good camera. I may do the whole break in 600 ish miles tomorrow...

Found out the dealer only uses 89 Octane as that's all they have... Gonna slowly burn off about half a tank and then put in 5 gallons of unleaded 100 Octane. Hopefully that'll help balance it out.

Any suggestions for good flicks to watch or DVD-Audio to listen to on the way back?

Congrats! I don't have any suggestions for DVD-A discs (maybe some NiN), but like others have said, we want pictures! Congratulations again!

Cheers,
Kermee

If you can find the Blue Man Group DVD-A discs (any of them)... they're amazing to listen to on the ML system. Enjoy!

Here are some pics my friend snapped the day I picked up the car, I'm doing more this weekend myself and found a cool location that should work so if I can get more up soon I will. The last 2 were essentially chase shots as I followed my buddy out of town in his 350Z. Good times.

Thanks for posting some "preview" pics... I'll be looking forward to seeing more pics soon!!! Say, can you please tell me how much did you pay for your car?? The one I ordered has a similar configuration and I want to know what price to expect to be negotiating... Thanks and congratulations on getting the car!!
