Well, way to circle around the wagon.. I guess the thread can now be deleted, old news.
I did not know about it; thought the highest number for pre-orders had been 1000. My bad. |

Or... 10,000 intelligent individuals who decide to not purchase one of the two inferior cars mentioned previously. For the record, there are forums dedicated to both of those lesser options.

Why are you still here, then? Walk your ass over to the nearest Ford or Hyundai dealer and sign on the dotted line, and leave us "shmucks" alone.
