Default Had Enough!!
Because they keep moving Vert TPWs out, i Negotiated between three local dealers,who fought over a Magred/Cashmere coupe with all the bells and whistles,finally had one offer 3k below MSRP, went to pick it up and also gave them a $500 rebate we got for driving a car during the GM in motion show, they accepted it which paid for the GMPP extended warranty. that was it,drove it home and to work last night,can't get the grin off my face.This is an awsome vehicle,i'll post pics as soon as i get time ,Wx in Texas is ideal driving weather right now.!!

Congratulations. Don't blame you. I waited 4.5 months for a coupe, then gave up and bought one off a dealer's lot. Enjoy.

We are lucky to have the weather in north Texas. Hope to see you around. I'll look for the MR C-6 with a driver smiling from ear to ear on loop 820, should be easy to find.

Congratulations Marcus !

If you decide you ever want a vert, you can swap into one. If you never do, you will have had your car much earlier ! Enjoy it !
