This may seem obvious, but...(more)

Congrats!!! I just picked up my '01 Silver/Onyx Tuesday! Plan on not sleeping for SEVERAL days!
When you pick up the car, check to make sure that it is cleaned VERY WELL. The car gets full of industrial grime (slightly orange in color) when shipped, and needs to be cleaned thoroughly so that the industrial fallout does net settle into the paint. The areas that are not covered in plastic during shipping are especially susceptible to this...fenders, top of front and rear bumpers, etc. I didn't notice until I got my car home and checked it very closely that the dealer did a half-*** cleaning job.
