Thanks! I only wished it had the lighted kickplate (the dealer assured me it had it) but oh well....one less light to worry about having to replace, I suppose.

I'll get some interior pictures up later today. The xzilion looks like a ripoff, perhaps. Yes, I paid for it and thought it was a good idea but as I continue to read about it, I'm finding out its not as good as it sounds. Supposedly lasts 5 years......I have yet to see a comment on a site that agrees with that.....and it looks like its just $300 for a wax that lasts maybe 6 to 8 months. Although it can be reapplied by the dealer so.....I'm thinking I should have just refused it. Live and learn, I suppose.

Congrats! I love yellow sports cars and your car looks terrific!

I'm debating on yellow vs. red vs. white myself. Can you tell me if Chicane Yellow has any pearl or metallic flakes in it? In all the pictures it looks to be a solid yellow, but I haven't seen one in person yet.

Nice! I don't normally like yellow, but somehow the Z makes it look good. Better than Lambo yellow. How's the monthly/yearly on lojack?

From what I can tell on the yellow....it looks very solid yellow to me. It's not a bright yellow but more of a sun at dawn or maybe at dusk yellow. Definately not school bus yellow. Actually, yellow was the first color I ruled out but once I saw and test drove a yellow (and with my aunt's continued "I'd get yellow!" comments) I went for it! And I'm glad I did. Interior photos coming soon.....

Oh, and the LoJack....it was included in my car payment and I'm still waiting for it to become an active account. Hopefully by Monday.

Ok, here are some interior views and a couple more from the outside. The last photo is an upclose picture of the paint near the Z symbol to show it appears to be a very clear yellow with no specks of other colors mixed in as asked earlier:

I wouldn't consider any other color but yellow! It is by far the sexiest color for the Z, believe you me, you will get far more attention in a yellow Z than any other color. Can't wait to get mine.

I would say yellow and blue both will get equal attention, but then again, this car alone will turn heads. I got to drive a blue one and people just moved out of the way so they could see the car on the freeway.
