Exclamation It's arrived! (With first pictures)



But it came in all by its lonesome on an otherwise empty carrier late Saturday afternoon just before the dealership closed. Why couldn't it have been on the carrier that came early AM?!? Can't pick it up until Monday.

I got to see the color, sit in it and notice that I got the Bridgestone tires

Come on Monday!

Early congratulations! So what color did you wind up getting? I don't remember you mentioned it, or I forgot at least.

P.S. I'm glad I'm not in your shoes and having to wait, although I think I'd mitigate it by playing GT5 Prologue all weekend or something.

Congrats on the car. Hopefully there will not be that much snow and salt on the roads when you take it home.

Fa-suto, are you going to pick up an ISF? If so, are you going to drive it all year round? Do you know if Maplewood or Wayzata has recieved there ISF yet?

congrads on the car! where did you get it from?

why is it that some have the Bridgestone tires and others have the pilots?

Either way great car and hope to see/meet you at a meet in Chicago!

Yup, getting a black/black. Nope, it'll be my summer car only, however, the first break of Spring this year or when the roads are cleared and I'll be out and about. I was suppose to get it in February, but they screwed up my order (Wayzata) and it ended up in Maplewood (already sold), being held for the autoshow. Mine is supposedly coming first week of March. Both Wayzata (Red/Black - Sold) and Maplewood (Black/Black - Sold) have one on the floor.
