Yes. Sterling Grey and Sonic Blue are coming back for job 2 which I think starts in July or August.

Sterling Grey is the replacement for Lava Red. It's not due in the plants until September.

Yes mattv6, like Cur stated, I can help you look into it. Message me with your dealer name and order number so I can do so.

Thank you for your offer to help! I did get a hold of the general manager at the dealership and she informed me that Lava Red is balanced out. I really don't know why the salesman was giving me the run around. Anyways, time to decide whether to go with the black/saddle or wait for the sterling grey/saddle!

Glad you got a straight answer Matt... sorry you didn't get LR like you wanted. I know how you feel. It took me a while to come up with a second choice.

Tough choices.. I looked at Candy Red, Race Red, Kona Blue and Black before I decided on Ingot Silver.

Let us know when you get yours.

Window sticker showed up today, Build date has been moved back to Fri 6/17.
Looks like my Fathers day gift will be a little late.

Also must say it is pretty cool seeing your name on the sticker.

What about Kona with the 401a and grabber blue stripes? That was optn B for me I think. Or black with the 401a red brick interior.

Of those options I would go with Kona if you can get it - it is almost balanced out as well....

It was my understanding that Kona Blue will be balanced out like Lava Red in the very near future. Sorry to say looks like your choices are getting slim.

Ok, good to hear. Even though... that sounds like a hard decision to make.

More pics tomorrow... I didn't get the car home until after 7:30pm. At dusk this car looks BLACK. In fact to avoid confusion with the popo the car is listed as black on the registration.
