Default Dreaming... Not anymore!

Z day was TODAY!!!!!! Got the call at 12:45 while I was in class, I could not sit still after I saw who was calling. My God this car is everything I had ever imagined and MORE. I have to practice shifting a little, just a little jerk every now and then, but I guess that's what happens when you have not driven a standard in 4 years. The car is AMAZING, like everyone says, PLENTY of power, although I have not gone over 4,000 RPM. Let me tell you the daytona blue is BEAUTIFULL!!!!!!!!!

Ok here is my story, I went directly from the dealership to my GF's high school to pick her up from aftercare (shes a boss there). They had the whole cheerleading team out there, and when I pulled up rollin in 2nd gear at about 10 - 15 mph the exhaust note made EVERY one of them turn around, and they all gazed in awe (I think) and I felt like I was a damn celebrity. Then when I was leaving they all turned again and a few of them waved to me. I nodded my head and waved back, going about my business... then I see a couple guys in a new Civic Si, going the opposite direction as me, they looked at my car while passing gave me thumbs up. Man I'm feeling good by now, I think my head is actually growing.

Then I get on the interstate, people rubbernecking like you wouldn't believe. I get off the interstate and when I was turning at the light at the exit, a car full of girls in a new beetle honked and just had their jaws dropped, I honked back. HA.

I will have pictures soon, and more reviews. My car had 16 miles on it when I got it, my salesman was SO kind and left all the tape on the car as well as the covering on the seats etc... that made me feel GOOD. I watched the PDI. Tomorrow morning, I get up EARLY and start the wash wax process! Oh BTW, there was no condensation in the headlights.

More to come SOON!

It sounds great. Thanks for the story. I only got a little scared when I read...

Fortunately I was just thinking a little faster than I was reading. Mine has been in inventory since at least Monday, but it hasn't come in yet.
