Haha I guess that means no Cars and Coffee for you, but at least you'll be able to play with it this weekend.

I think my wife and I are going to take a day trip someplace to break the car in.

I have it and I love it. The only complaint I have so far is the radio. It could really use some buttons. Touch screens are great but not when I just want to change tracks while I'm driving.

So worth the wait!

I stopped at BP on my way home from work and got to admire our new rides and fill out paperwork. I take delivery at 1pm tomorrow!

Ayau, there was a white and WRB limited there. Which one is yours and why aren't you getting it tomorrow? It will be PDI'd early in the morn.

I didn't get to sit in mine cause the lot guy left work with them in his pocket. FAIL!

They said I could check out one of the others but I didn't want to jizz in mah pants while sitting in Ayau's new ride. It would have felt like sleeping with his GF or something.

Don't you have to contact the organizer (Cars and Coffee) to get in with your own rides? I'll head up Saturday as well if I can get in.

According to the Automotorplex site "All cars are welcome. Arrive early to make sure you get a great spot."

I really need to look at buying one of their garages.

im gonna stop by tomorrow to do the paper work. i'll try my hardest to pick it up tomorrow, even if it means staying until 9pm.

all they really need to do is the pre-inspection. i don't need them to wash the car or anything.

If they don't want to get it done for you tomorrow just let them know it might affect their post sales survey. Apparently that's really important to them. Ray from Bloomington Accura-Subaru will be getting top scores for a doing a great job.

Let me know if your going to go to C&C tomorrow. I'm an early riser so I'm up for meeting up someplace and driving in together to get spots in the same area.

I talked with my dealership after work and they said the stop-ship is a rumor. The sales manager clarified that they might have cars in St. Paul and the company that delivers the vehicles has needed to hire more drivers for the amount they are shipping. So, in that, there could be delays of shipments. I was relieved when he told me that if my car shows up, it will still be able to be delivered. And hopefully that will happen within the next few days.

I'm pretty sure I'll be able to pick up the car today. It's not like it takes a long time to do Preinspection. My sales guy probably said saturday because he doesn't work on Fridays. If starscream can get his today, I'm sure I can too.

Call and talk to Scott in Subaru Service about your front bumper! I called him a little bit ago and he's going to make sure it's not done during PDI.

Hurry!

EDIT: And my delivery is at 1pm!
