I'm 10 minutes from Courtesy...I don't even want to touch it- JUST SEE it somewhere besides the internet. Is yours on display in the showroom roped off?

Default Update at Grubbs

Just got back from Grubbs in Mid-cities. They had a Silverstone Track model sitting outside being prepped for final delivery today (may already be gone!). Like everyone else who has seen it in person has noted.. pictures don't do the car justice!! Double sweet.. The 6'2" salesman was sitting in the car and he had ample headroom. He also took me to the back prep area to see a Chrome Touring model. It will be delivered tomorrow..so.. if you wanna see that one, better get there in the a.m.

Also, the salesman told me that the reason most of the cars are arriving early is that all of the dealers opted to delay their demo cars (about 1100 total) so that the pre-order folks could get theirs first!!

Just got back from Courtesy Nissan in Richardson during my lunch break. Sitting in the parking lot: A Chrome performance! I ordered chrome too, so it was great to see how the paint looked. WOW- I feel so much better, this car is the coolest thing on the road. Nothing really surprised me about it...the size was what I was thinking- not smaller or bigger- just right!

Only surprises:
The factory tint was darker than I thought- it looked great, don't think I want to go darker.

The front headlights were cooler than I thought they would be too- the looked like freakin lasers.

Interior looked great to me (peeking through the window).

If anyone is thinking about going by there, go for it. Appearently they have a couple in back for owners that weren't for viewing, but the chrome was the GM's so it's on and off the lot.

I can't wait!!!!

Sorry KraZy,
All I know is that the glass was not clear...there was tint. I asked the GM if the dealership had tinted it or it had come that way- he said, " We just got it in yesterday and haven't touched a thing."

Anyone who's gotten their car...help?

Almost all vehicles made today have some form of tint as part of the glass assembly from the factory.

That's what I thought- but it was pretty dark! I'm glad.
