Fiinally got the call from my Dealer .. 'Good news and Bad ... Your car is here
but it has to go right to the body shop ..." I rushed right down to check it out.
Seems the lower front bumper cover was scuffed taking it off the truck.
Here are pics of the car and front bumper .. ouch.

I really need to ask my salesman about that kind of thing since my car is out of state and it's being delivered straight to me.

I was sitting in a Sonic Blue V6 last week, and they had to put it in the body shop for the same thing. The sales guy said it came off the truck damaged. Do you think it is the design of the bumper, or these yahoos just haven't figured out how long that front end is yet?

That lower front facia is quite low. It seems that there have been a lot of problems taking them off the trucks (probably rolling them off too quickly??)

This is also a warning to those of you going to get/or who have 05's. Watch out for curbs and slow down for speed bumps.
