Writing the check

Getting the car will obliterate your memory of the 24 hours before, and even though you have to keep out of the throttle during the 1000 mile breakin, you can still get a lot of pep from the motor without breaking the "rules".

The 1000 mile break-in

The wait was tough, but the anticiapation was fun...

Getting 25,000 American Airlines miles helped to ease the pain...

The car is raring to go, you know it can do so much more and yet....

You charged the car? What did the dealer say?

Re: You charged the car? What did the dealer say?

The dealer (Clair) had no problem with using a credit card. In fact, they said I could charge as much as I wanted, as long as it wasn't on Amex. One free trip seemed like a fair amount ;-)

BTW, it is against the MasterCard/Visa vendor agreement to not let you charge. Dealers cannot put restrictions on credit card usage.
