I guess later means tomorrow.
I know, I am SUCH a child.
You are right to be excited my friend because my giant grin hasn't left my face since I got the phone call!!

The one I was given was 6/25 and I don't see that happening. I'm located more than half the country away. Driving distance is 2,346 from Flat Rock, Michigan to Everett, Washington. Any time estimates would be appreciated!

Once it ships, if all goes well, I would say 4-5 days with stops. Then again, that is when all the what if's come. It'll get there soon.

So now my co-worker is trying to convince me that my car was on the train that got wiped out by a tornado recently in the mid-west – he even had a convincing video. The lack of any status/location updates since last Wednesday’s departure from Flat Rock isn’t very reassuring….

Car was ordered from the dealer 5/24. To make a long story short i Org. ordered a car 4/24 same eq. but a base GT, Changed order on 4/28 to a Prem. with a 401a pkg.,did not receive a vin by 5/15 ,sent a pm to a employee at Flat Rock and he told me the order had not been changed. Went back to the dealer and talked to the owner and had him call the zone manager and tell him he had a pissed off cust and to take care of gettin the car built. What you see is the results of those contacts

I'm about to hit 15 weeks since my order, which has never been altered on almost the identical car.
The one thing this wait has shown me, is that I can live without it. Delivery needs to be hassle free, my patience is shot.

Awesome choice. I LOVE the Kona w/Brembos, and the 3.55 is my choice if I had my druthers (and a coupe with a manual).
If you want to see how to outfit it perfectly, go see "Eric N's" car in the 2010 by color. He also has a kona/brembo coupe.
