Picked mine up last Friday 2/17; ordered it 12/31, built 2/2, arrived on LI 2/13. Pretty amazing.

2/17 - Weather was beautiful 1 minute...


And nasty the next...


Well I got the first rain out of my system anyway.

Thanks for all of the great posts on this site, I've learned a lot just browsing through them. Now I can learn first hand all that I've read about.

Rain, huh? I guess it gives you an excuse to clean it up all over again...

Congrats. I have to say, I wasn't too sure about the Monterey Red at first, but after seeing it at the Chicago Auto show I really think it's a great color. Enjoy.
