Can we put speculation on hold?

We're literally days away from the promised newsletter 11, dealership confirmations, dealership openings and (hopefully) delivery of the first batch of cars in January.

In the spirit of the holidays, can we just put all the guesses, estimates and plain ol' WAGs on hold and let PAG roll things out as they've planned all along. Frankly, all the "guesstimating" is getting a little old and I for one would appreciate a break for the rest of this month. Probably too much to ask but it's worth a shot.

We (wife and I) thought that this site for the "sharing" of information and the possible confirmation times are/were rather impoortant to us. Your color choices, accessories wanted/needed, modifications planned are important to others. Sorry if our desire for the confirmation process upsets some...Will not ask again! The "back and forth" on the speculation of the possible confirmation/delivery dates are just that...speculation. It will happen when it happens. Again, enjoy the holidays.

Speculation ?

Jeeze, I thought it was all true fact.

What else is there to do on this fourm now? We are, in the words of the sea,
Becalmed.

If this forum gets any less meaningful activity it will be a blank screen.

Smile, we're Smarties.

I speculate that this was a ploy to make Mr. Penske $2,970,000 (30,000x$99) and come January he'll be sitting on a island someplace and we'll be all wondering what happened to the smart's.

See now isn't speculation fun

This is not the Twilight Zone.... You ARE in control

If the "guesstimating" is distressing you...simply spin the dial, hit the off switch, change the channel, mute the volume, post factual and informative info, what ever floats your boat...

The wonder of these forums is exactly what we are witnessing and participating in... the free exchange of ideas, knowledge and opinions

To answer your direct question...NO


Sorry this sounds rude...but you asked

What really counts is that all important confirmation call/email...but I do enjoy hanging out with you guys!!!! Every time someone posts a different color combo I change my mind to THAT one!! I think I've been through all of them now! The speculation is fun and what is a smart? FUN!!

It's not so much speculation...but duplication. Rude? Yeah, some are good at that, too.
