Default Z Is In.....but not in Garage, yet

Dealer called me yesterday as they were unloading my Z off the truck. I'll pick it up on Friday cuz it's my next day off. He was really cool with all the instructions I gave him and verified he will follow all to the "T."

1. Make sure front spoiler lip is attached, or attach it.
2. Do not wash car. Don't even let the detailing section look at it. (Car is black.)
3. Do not take any exterior transportation film off. Just leave it there to help prevent any rock chips on drive home. (My wife and I will install a clear mask ourselves..fingers crossed.)
4. Do not drill front bumper for license plate. I'll bring my Stillen bracket.
5. No dealer stickers anywhere. I did let him know I would sport their license plate frames on the drive home though.
6. Full tank of fuel.
7. I will not even talk about extended warranties when I pick up. I'll decide that later on after researching some more.

Like I said, salesman, who is General Manager, is really cool with all my "demands" cuz he knows how long I've been waiting for this.

Friday is gonna take forever to get here....

I was assigned at RAF Lakenheath from '99-'02 and lived in Newmarket. I miss England...and the Guiness and Strongbow. And all the Indian restaurants. And the roundabouts...

naaa, i foolishly passed up getting playoff tickets... i've been on the waiting list for season tickets for 4 seasons now.. we better win tonight!!

hope you got a decent deal there. i kinda regret what i paid for mine there. i went thru a friend there and just kinda assumed they wouldn't try to rip me off. o well, i still love the car.
