Yayy!

Remember... in your break-in period, you can go 98, 99 mph, but not over 100mph, ok?

ChaneRZ · 10-19-2007, 03:23 PM

OC Guy · 10-19-2007, 03:29 PM

Oh yes, make sure you check the entire car for damage (inside/out), your NAV DVD, etc..

jtmccabe · 10-19-2007, 03:37 PM

Joonsup · 10-19-2007, 04:30 PM

yeah i want pics of all the bolts and screws and stitching and metallic flake, etc..

Joonsup · 10-19-2007, 04:31 PM

damn Forza's been gone a while. he must be crusin around in his new car. haha. Get back here and post some pics!

forza1976 · 10-19-2007, 07:34 PM

Guys, all I can say is "fricking fantastic"!!!

This car is just great, and I have only had it for about half a day. I'm getting my clear bra on tomorrow and will take it up to the mountains or maybe red rocks to get some snaps tomorrow. Sorry for the delay but here are a couple shots of just the exterior.

Here is a quick first pic at my folks house. Didn't really have time to take more or get good shots for that matter but a quick look.

Joonsup · 10-19-2007, 07:36 PM

F'in beautiful man. Congrats Forza. Wish me luck. I'm heading in to the dealer at 6:30 tonight. Hopefully I drive out of there with a 2008 sg 335 coupe and not my pos 97 honda accord.

sn123 · 10-19-2007, 07:40 PM

congrats. it looks very nice. can't wait for mines. GL on some nice freebies joonsup =)
SG = space gray or sparkling graphite? hehe. I already sold my honda civic a couple weeks ago. Now i'm driving my 4runner around.

jtmccabe · 10-19-2007, 07:44 PM

Looks great man... congrats!!

Forza will be in my neighborhood tomorrow getting his clear bra so I'm gonna drop by and see this beauty in person. Haven't seen many coupes in real life.

Good luck brother man... You will have a grin from ear to ear the whole time you are there.

JT... See ya tomorrow, you will be gifted on Monday so only a short wait to go. Bummer they can't get it to you tomorrow.

sb123... thanks man, good luck with yours as well.

Joonsup · 10-20-2007, 06:14 AM

Guess what's in my garage. yup. I got it finally. My CA wouldnt give me the buy rate on the lease and he said no one is getting buy rate from there even though I said that people around were getting that rate. So I haggled and ended up getting some off the msrp even though i agreed to pay at msrp. I'm sure I could have gotten a better deal elsewhere, but it was my first "purchase/lease" and I know how to go about buying/leasing another car next time around. The important thing is that I have the car after waiting 2.5 months.

I feel overwhelmed with all the functions, esp Idrive, so I'll be doing a lot of studying this weekend. haha. So far the car is awesome. I took some pics with my friend's gf's camera, but I have to wait till they email me the pics. I'll post pics once I have them. Good luck Sn123 and Jtmcabbe. You'll love your car.

Congrats joonsup... Enjoy it. Don't worry on the buy rate deal, I seriously doubt may others are actually getting that rate. At least right now, the cars are in pretty good demand.

Post pics today, I'm gonna go take some a little later on.

Congrats again.

jtmccabe · 10-20-2007, 09:37 AM

Congrats joonsup! I wouldn't worry about the lease rate either, since the dealer is not even allowed to jack up the rate all that much. I'm impressed that you even got them to budge from MSRP. You must be a pretty good actor, cause we all know how much you wanted that car.

I think I'm gonna be overwhelmed too, coming from a Jeep. It'll be like upgrading from a little Cessna to the space shuttle.

Looking forward to your pics and impressions of the car later. Enjoy!
