Let me tell you about my new orphan

I picked up yesterday at the Bloomington dealership in MN.
Everyone was very nice at the Dealership and made it a pleasant experience.

I didnt put my reservation in until November, so I was expecting to not get my car until early next year. I couldnt wait that long, so I have been on the orphan list since February I think. I got called once before about having a chance to get an orphan, but turned it down. (I didnt like the color or options).

I got another call on friday, and I decided to take it. It is an all silver pure with the following options, AC, ALARM, RADIO 9, HEATED SEATS, a few other small things. But the things I wanted for sure were AC, Heated seats and a radio.

I love the car, and the attention it gets is incredible! Today at an intersection, a guy hung his head out the window of his car and said "that thing is mint!" its so funny watching the looks on peoples faces!

I planned on ordering a all black passion with red interior, but this will get the job done for now. I may still order the black one and then sell this one when it comes in.

Can't wait to drive it to work tomorrow!

All silver here as well. Been driving mine into work every day for almost a month now. Every morning a lady arrives at the building in a white BMW about the same time I do. This morning she finally looked at me and said "Your car makes me smile" That was the extent of the conversation and she went on her way.

smart-making people smile on monday mornings. What more could you want
