Someone should just call the dealer and ask what it is.

Sorry but something doesn't add up.

You make a post on 12-22 that you "just" made a deposit yet you show a document dated 11-2? Perhaps you could clarify what's going on.

Does Longo know something the rest of us don't? Or are they just assuming there will be an RS 1.0 eventually and are stringing this guy along until it shows up?

i mean.. yeah there'll be a release series. but that'll be a very long time from now. i can imagine him calling the dealer in april:

"any news on release series!?"

"nope, call back in 3 months."

I guess I shouldn't say "just" . I made my deposit last month. At that time, they told me it will be at lease a 5~6 month wait, which I am OK. I can use those time to learn how to drive a stick with my friends car first.

I don't think they will do anything like that until sales slow down, that is the classic recipe for regaining interest 18-24 months after release. Time for a "special" edition with new paint colors & emblems.
