Ordered my 2007 GT Premium Convertible Today!!!
***Update--my GT Vert arrived on 02 Aug!!! See later in the thread for pics*** Well, I finally got it ordered! The dealership said I should have it no later than mid-August, so now the anxious wait begins. In addition to the standard equipment, here is what I ordered:
T85/180A GT Premium Convertible
44L Automatic Transmission
64W 18" Polished Wheels
17L Wheel Locking Kit
14A Active Anti-Theft
43A Front Seat Airbags
59B Convertible Soft Boot
50S Sirius Satellite Radio
53B Comfort Group
18G Interior Upgrade Package
68B Premier Trim Package
86C/CA Black Cloth Roof
TL Satin Silver Metallic
KW Dark Charcoal Leather Interior
90E Exhaust Tips
90S Wheel Cap Spinners
90W Floormats
67L Satin Panel
I pretty much ordered it fully loaded except for the GT Appearance Package because I didn't like the fake hood scoop. I also didn't order the Shaker 1000, because I would rather have my trunk, and I don't need any extra weight. I already have enough of that with the rest of my order, ha, ha. I also ordered the auto trans instead of the five-speed with the 3.55 mainly for the wife, as that is what she wanted. But also because this this is going to be more of a cruiser for the whole family to enjoy. My 2000 C5 Corvette was a six-speed, and I will miss that, but the auto trans in the 2006 I test drove shifted pretty well and did not hunt, so I'm happy with that compromise.
Thanks for everybody's help. If not for seeing all the pics provided by members here, I still would not have felt comfortable ordering without first seeing the color brochure. The brochure is still not out by the way, ha, ha.
So does anyone know how to track the order to get the dates more specific?
Thanks again for everyone's help!

Update--I now have my Vert!!! It was delivered to the dealer on 02 Aug, and I picked it up that afternoon 
That was the original delivery date that I was given when we first received order confirmation, so with the one exception of the ERL telling me it would be here on on 27 July, everthing was just as advertised. It took six weeks from the time I ordered my GT to the time I received it. It is awesome, and I am already modding it as we speak 
Thanks for everybody's assistance and advice!

What typr of CAI is that? Have you had any problems with it. I have read in the performance forums that some CAI systems are causing problems (causing car to revert to limp home mode). My car should be here today and I want to put a CAI(maybe BBK) on in in the next two weeks.
