Default It's on U.S. soil!

My car left San Diego on Tuesday and is supposed to arrive at my dealership no later than tommorrow. Dealer PDI means I might be able to pick it up on the day of my graduation! (Who knew it would work out like this when I ordered the car back on January 15th of this year...) Now comes the longest days/nights of my life until I can take delivery of my car.

Default Congrats and good luck...

My car arrived in San Diego on April 7th. It was reportedly released to the shipper on April 20. The dealer still doesn't have the car.

Yikes, hopefully the shipper didn't get hijacked. Maybe some red tape between the guys on the boat and the shipper?

Default You are gonna love it. Just picked mine up this past monday

Bought a santorin/oynx 6 speed. everything but phone and nav. I love it already. I'm new to driving a stick, but I'm catchin on fast (knock on wood)

Have fun with it. The days until I picked up my car were the longest. This is my first brand new car, so I guess that is understandable.

Default Be careful, it kills me when someone gets their car and gets into a fender bender a few days or

weeks later ...

It may not have been their fault, but be extra careful with your baby.

Default It's about time, let me know if you need assistance with your power windows etc.

I'm in the Irvine area.

Bought it at Pass & Weisz in Burlington, MA. The sales guys were great. They weren't willing to do the one touch up/down for the windows for me though. I paid 40K, don't know if it is a great deal or not, but I'm happy with that price.

A co-worker is considering a BMW 330i. I keep laughin at him whenever he talks about the price he is payin for it.
