So get ready for a perma smile because you will be wearing one!!!!!!

Can't wait to see it and drive it my friend! I owe you big time since it's because of you I got this allocation!

many dealers now want funds wired to their bank before signing it over to you. Check on how the plates and sales tax will be handled on both ends if dealer is out of state... and of course have the VIN given to your insurance agent ASAP so you have a proof to drive home with. I knew I had a mine field highway drive home I-65 from Columbus to Chicago so I masked the front end off with wide blue 3M painters tape (Home Depot) make sure its wide. Its still a pain in the ***. Take it off as soon

as you are home. It will protect against almost anything.

Hey..I remember you from Rick’s channel. Yep..I’ve already talked to the bank as the state does not handle tax and title for Va so already working with DMV on what that difference is.

I also have a transport company picking it up and taking it directly to my clear bra installer. Before I put a mile on that thing it’s getting clear bra’d and ceramic coated. Thanks Rinaldo.

I spoke to Bill today and I believe he is actively working the issue. He told me the exact same thing today. Hope he can work something out. He’s been awesome to work with thus far.

If there is anything that can be done,Bill is the man, he has been doing this a long time. And they are a big dealer in this area I am sure they will figure it out for you try to relax, I know that is easer said than done. Mine has been at the clear bra place for 3 days and I am beside myself wanting it now. And I have a Zo6 to drive still can't wait. So I feel your pain brother!!!!! If you come down here let me know.
