Smile Beyond excited!!

I am getting my new FR-S in white on Wednesday and I didn't need to wait more than a week for it. I got very lucky and someone canceled their order and I was offered the car. After I agreed to buy it, she phoned back to say that she changed her mind again but they told her that she is back on the waiting list. Must have been meant to be MY car!!

I am having heated seats installed and I will need to decide about snow tires since Quebec has a snow tire law.

My car is an automatic in white. Considered the manual since I had driven one for many years but the one that came in was automatic so I decided to take it.

Still can't believe that I am geting my car on Wednesday since so many people are waiting months here. When I did my test drive they said the earliest delivery would be September. Just got really lucky!!

Heated seats are a real plus here although I have been to SF many times since my brother lives there and there are a few times that I could have used them there. The dealer charged me $700 for the heated seats and I would rather pay the dealer and let him handle any headaches--if there are problems.

Congrats! I'm going to pick mine up in the Morning. For your winter tires, I highly recommend the Bridgestone Blizzak WS-70.
