Praying for an early arrival

Put in my reservation: Passion, Yellow, Beige interior.
Signed up for an orphan: Pure or Passion. No convertable. I have a VW Beetle and I put the top down once a year.

I'm hoping I get an orphan very, very, soon!!!

I didn't really want the convertible either, but that was what they had available. It's working out well. It's not nearly as noisy as I expected and you can put it up or down while at full speed. It's nice to have on those balmy nights, but I mostly use the A/C during the day with the top closed. I'm glad I got it instead of waiting for something else to come along.

When I visit friends in Cleveland each winter, all I bring is my towel and sunblock! No better place for a convertible! Although, it does get a little tedious having to shovel the snowdrifts out of the seats! At least with the smart, I'll have less to shovel!
