I can't wait for the car, but its like xmas like a kid so I don't mind waiting. However, I'm in the military and ordered the car near my parents house. So for me to fly 1000 miles last second is a bit annoying. It appears it missed it's deadline to make it to the distrobution area. It's scheduled for being at the dealer tomorrow but I hope it makes it by friday. (first chance I can take leave "vacation") which would be perfect so they don't wrap it around a power pole before I get there. As for your friend, he didn't order a hood strip did he? My dealer clams it'll be at JB for about a week for the hood strip decal is put on.
