FINALLY!

Going to the dealership tonight to drool on it before it gets prepped

Symbolic should get a web cam too...

Suggestion: Don't let them "prep" anything. Take the car with wrappers and all. I talked w/ my dealer about getting it untouched from the truck and they're fine with that (excluding safety issues like tire pressure and so forth)

Avoid the free dealer swirls!

Went to the dealer a bit ago to check it out and ended up taking it for a spin.

I LOVE IT :bow:

But I still think Lotus sucks

Here's the first baby picture - it was dark out and no pictures do this color justice anyway. It is without a doubt the best color on this car.

Is that kryppie?

 

[NtflBlueLiz]

Can you say Guacamole!

I like it!

Congratulations!

 

[MikeAR303]

Is that kryppie?

Yea it's krypton green...

At night it looks like a strange faded dull yellowish green (but still very cool). Under the lights inside it looks like a completely different color - very cool.

Couldn't be happier with my color choice. They had almost every other color there, and after seeing mine every color besides CO looked boring.

 

[steuspeed]

Did they have Graphite and Laser Blue for you to compare?

Please post some good pics of Krypton. I have yet to see a pic do this color justice.

Wow, the color looks good at night. Can't wait to see some daylight photos of it.

Congrats, I'm jealous.

mike,

Actually I found out tonight that it didn't come in today... they said it came in Wednesday.

Not sure how many there were... they had quite a few there, but at least 2 were in for service.

I'm glad I went and drove it tonight. Found out when we got back to the dealership that my passenger side interior door handle didn't work, so they're getting that sorted for me tonight or tomorrow morning before I pick it up tomorrow at lunch time.

Awesome news Mike. I know you've been straining for this car for a while now. Hopefully I'll be able to see it around town some time. Are you in the suburbs or the city?

 

[shay2nak]

nice color! congratulations! :up:

But I still think Lotus sucks

But now your opinion does not count since you have a car.

Congrats.

Stuck in the worst part of suburban hell unfortunately... Tinley/Orland area.

Hey Randy, Lotus beat you - I got my Elise before I got my PDR100 and camera


j/k
