Well not great news as the dealer dragged there feet and couldn't PDI in time for me to to take it.........even though they knew it was coming. Just another item in the long list of frustrations with this small time dealer. So Im going back first thing in the AM to complete the pickup. The color is as stunning as I remembered when I first saw it in Detroit!
Some rough unloading photos for now, UNTIL TOMORROW!

Congratulation! My Rapid Blue has been trapped in Jack Cooper prison, and it hasn't been going anywhere for weeks.

I think you'll be the first customer-owned Rapid Blue other than that random one sold early this year in Orchard Park NY with the history as a "GM show car". Mine will be built next Tuesday

FloridaBrain, Mine was built the same day as yours and we live in the same city. Maybe there is a problem with the car. I must say the car is beautiful and sitting in my garage.
