Car Arrived!

Just got a text about an hour ago from my dealer saying my car had arrived! I jumped in my car broke about 3 traffic laws just in time to watch my car being taken off the truck! Asphalt auto :]

Too bad I cant drive it yet, still needs to go through PDI which takes a few hours and I have work tonight :[ Feels like im coming down with some type of flu I think though

What does PDI stand for? Is it the mechanic inspection?

My dealer got 4 in so I get to compare colors side by side, and I have to say, the two colors that look absolutely stunning are asphalt and whiteout. Dealer has asphalt, whiteout, silver, and ultramarine, mine being the asphalt. Handling is nearly telekinetic, think it and it does. Brakes seem a little stiff, but I guess coming from a really old car, whats one to expect? :P
