Dave, you better take a walk out and make sure those wheel center caps are all lined up properly. Looks like at least the LB one are off a bit with others even not installed. You know how **** we all are about details.

AW and LB the two colors I'm down to, or maybe Yellow or TR, or......

Dave...any report for us on how those pure white covers survived the trip? Where they torn/shredded? Any issues with the cars themselves from the covers?

It would look much better to me with tinted top, black wheels and red calipers.

I noticed the same thing, could be they have some shipping spacers in to make it easier to get on and off the trucks? Was comparing these pics to Mikes and these look noticeably higher, but could just be the angle of the shots.

Its amazing to me that GM has not invoiced them yet, seems like that is kind of shooting themselves in the foot. All the work production likes go through these days with "just in time" inventory kind of goes by the waste side if the car sits un-invoiced after its made. I'm sure it was already painful for the bean counters to have them sit as long as they did at the factory.

Great thread, very cool you caught the truck arriving

Dave

I noticed the AW has the 3LT trim based on the partial colored dash.

I thought 3LT would have entire dash in color. Is that kalahari or brownstone?
