Congrats man!!! I know what it's like to obsess on getting what you've always wanted, and now, BAM! you have it. If you are anything like me, you will experience one or more of the following;
1) The random OMGHS it's actually BL33PING MINE!!
2) Stopping in your tracks when you walk around the corner or through the door when you see it.
3) Reflecting on how fortunate you were to be in the right place at the right time to be able to afford such a fine machine.
4) Getting a little emotional at some random time when you don't expect it, either driving it or seeing it in your driveway/garage.
5) Smiling or grinning by reflex when you open it up on your favorite on ramp.
6) Driving under bridges, by Jersey barriers, or certain other confined spaces to be able to dig the exhaust note.
7) Driving by certain buildings that have reflective properties so you can see what your ride looks like from the outside.
8) Becoming even more paranoid about where you park.
9) Getting approached by anyone/everyone wanting to chat you up about your new ride.
10) Starting to compile your mod list.
As for #10, may I suggest the very first 2 mods you get are hood struts & the Cooltech STD kit. This is *very* practical for multiple reasons, because you will be opening the hood for #9, being able to get a better view of this awesome engine w/o the fugly sound tube in the way, and a way easier time to check your oil.

I literally joined this forum just to say thank you. I was at that dealership yesterday around noon to get an oil change for my truck and saw this boss. See, I just got a PW Boss and hadn't seen the Grabber Blue until yesterday in person. It looked phenomenal. I actually had the crazy idea of trading in my PW for the GB.
Now you have fixed that conundrum for me. While the other dealers in town have been selling their bosses for less than that dealership, the GBs are hard to come by!
Anyway, I live in Ascension and hopefully will see you around. An ex-coworker of mine supposedly also has a GB 302 in the area, so we are well represented in the area.

Congrats on the new car. I too, was smitten by the Grabber Blue Boss 302, but in the end my drive for a convertible heavily outweighed my want for another coupe. I don't regret going with a Grabber GT Vert in the least, but part of me would have liked the Boss. I even considered sort of making mine into some sort of a convertible Boss, but my love for white stripes on GB lost that one too.

I'm a little late to the party but that is one badass machine...... hard to do both sexy and menacing at the same time but that does it. Oh and for the record my wife does it well too (just in case she's reading.........)
