I'll probably pass you headed the other direction. Checking out in a few minutes and headed to Pickwick for the balance of the weekend.

For those of you waiting for cars, I saw about half a dozen loaded transports leaving the Assembly Plant on Friday or parked at BG motels Friday night. Should be heading your way soon!

When I toured the plant Friday morning, they said their goal for the day was to produce 180 cars and they said they would work overtime to do so. At the end of my tour, about 10 a.m., they were nine cars behind the goal. By 3:30 p.m., they were 17 cars behind the goal.

For those who have done a Museum delivery for a 2015, when was your car built? How far behind are they for delivery? I have a TPW of 9/8/14 an am trying to figure out when we will be making the trip to BG!?!?

Been a fun 48 hours. Delivery Friday, off to Bowling Green Saturday morning for the 20th anniversary of the museum, did a couple of "parade laps" at the new road course. I had White Castles.. drove home today and past my 500 mile break in period..... OMFG...what a beast.

Home, washed and tucked away for the evening.

Just a couple more pics..

All tucked in, waiting on it's stablemate Regal turbo to get back from the dealer for a parking brake problem.

Almost 600 flawless miles so far.

Now that I had a few hours at home,

Splash Guards installed -- what an easy job

Carbon fiber look visor covers installed -- looks great

Garage doors programmed

Neighborhood gates shows programmed, but can't test until this evening.

Time to drop the top and go on a cruise.
