Without Further Ado
My 2011 MCA V6 has FINALLY arrived after 18 weeks of agony but all of my frustrations went away the first time I put my foot in it. Here are a few pics I snapped this afternoon. Sorry for the haze, it seems there's still some salt water residue on the camera lens.
Overall, I absolutely love this car (and the stares it gets). The harder you drive it the more it begs to be pushed and it sounds great. This is going to be a very trying break-in process for me.

Very nice!
I didn't know those wheels came in gunmetal. I have them on my car but they are polished. If only they were wider so I could fit wider tires on them

An upside however is that program number 11818 actually got me a $1000 rebate, not $500. The finance guy thought that it was a $500 bonus to the dealer that was being passed through to the customers.
They also sold me the Ford 6 year/100,000 mile warranty (the best level, blue I think) for around $1,200 and the wheel and tire warranty for around $250. These prices were considerably less than what I had seen on Ford's ESP website even though it is the same exact warranty. The finance guy thought that this was due to my Z plan pin but I think they just sell them cheap on brand new cars. That is a good price? Right?
All-in-all, I'm pretty happy but I will have some things to say by the time I get my survey fur sure.

I might not be able to take good pictures with it but I can take a mean exhaust clip. I know I shouldn't be pushing a new engine this hard it's the only time I've done it. Besides, it's for the good of TMS.
