You have to pick it up today, you can't just let it sit overnight. You won't sleep tonight if you don't pick it up today. I'll tell you what I'll go pick it up for you 
Congratulations on your new toy

OK, here's the latest. Went to the dealer last night to do all the paperwork & listen to them try to sell me everything but the Brooklyn Bridge. Saw the car, it was NOT prepped, but I did drive it back & forth about 25 feet. Lowered & closed the roof, and let the engine growl a bit. Finances are getting completed today (which is good because it's raining now, and it will turn to snow later today). Car will be prepped tomorrow, and I'll pick it up tomorrow night. I know...pix will follow!

Hey Matt (LIParothed) and Roy (yur1279), it's nice to see some more fellow LI'ers here!
Matt....how does she look? How does it compare to past GT convertibles? I ordered my Satin Silver 05 GT vert on Saturday....can't stand the wait now!
We'll have to have some sort of LI meet this summer.

Also, compared to previous Verts, the top closes much easier & neater. The latches lock & release much easier than prior models, and the roof collapses in a much neater finished manner. I did not order the boot, and really don't think it needs it.
