[montypython] You lucky, lucky bastard. [/montypython]

Congrats, Mr TriTrochoid!

Just curious: did you have any port-installed options? I heard a rumour that they were releasing "plain jane" cars before those with any installed options.

Did the dealer add the spoiler? Looks like the first picture doesn't have one. If it did come in with one, Blows the hell out of the line I was given on the release! Congratulations on being #1

i think i know why you got yours first. the dealer in tacoma is probably closer to the port then we are to our port. so the cars are released you just were closer. so hopefully everybody will get theirs this afternoon. we are about 2 1/2 hours from port hueneme. so since you got your around 11:00 we will probably get ours artound 1:00 or so depending if the driver stops for lunch or not. i will keep everybody updated!!

Soon!

Budaman tells me that he's heard that unoptioned cars are being released before those with options, which suggests that the Yellow that they ordered for me may arrive before the blue. Having now seen the yellow in the flesh, I'd be happy with either!

3rotor's car had the spoiler 'wing' on it though so I'd think they're releasing them all.
