The only thing I would change is the rear view mirror. I can't see out of it, the dumb thing won't adjust any higher. My head isn't even touching the roof, the mirror just sucks lol.

Slight update: my car is officially on a boat! My dealer is getting absolutely bombarded with calls since the car is officially in the dealer system, but they are holding firm that the car is spoken for. Already informed them I will be on travel quite a bit this month for work, but they assured me the car will be untouched if it arrives while I am away 
Takeaway for others: demand is still HIGH for this car. As soon as one pops up, if you don't have a deposit down, it's gone. Check all the dealers in your area, or however far you're willing to travel. If they have one, ask about it. If they don't have one, ask if they have a list and get on it. There will always be naughty dealers out there, but do your homework!

Unless the sales rep is a personal friend or you’ve purchased several cars from them, someone else could talk them into selling.
Remember, the guy who ordered mine wanted to think about it after the test drive, and I drove it off the lot a day later.

That's good. I was always shocked how pushy they are to get me into the dealership when it arrived. Happened at 2 dealerships. They only hold a car for 24-48 hours, even the car I had a deposit on and was planning to buy. Wait, what????

MSRP+$1500 add on, not bad. Illunmibated door sills are much better than GPS ANTI THEFT something.

Oh my God, that bull-pucky. Two of my Atlanta sales reps mentioned that shady ridiculous crap. Rip-off doesn’t begin to describe that ‘required’ add-on. #JustTriggeredMe 😂🤮

Well, I'm happy to report that my Special Appearance Package Molten Pearl is in bound and will be here for Christmas. I purchased mine from a dealership that i had purchased from before and was able to get this at MSRP. I have my name and deposit on a couple of other dealerships for an orange, one that sells at MSRP with no add on's and one that has a 5k add on, but i think by the time they get their's, they will rethink the 5k, I am number one on that list. Once my purchase is complete, I am willing to give up my other reservation if whoever takes it will cover my deposit of $1000.00, I am number 2 on that list for an orange and they received 7 L.E., my guess is that they will get 3-4 of the Molten Pearl.
