Seven days till lock and I can finally stop obsessing about the tiniest details and live with my choices.

This morning I'm playing with the SB vs. Chalk in the configerator. I think I'm sticking with SB.

if you change now it may delay the build, however better to have it the way you want it… not often you can get a shot at speccing one.

Same situation but I'm playing with Chalk vs GT Silver. Really want the black/red interior and Blue doesn't work well with that IMO. I'll probably stick with Chalk.

Changing your spec can lead to *significant* delays in your build, especially if Lock date is close. Be warned.

Looks like the Siem Cicero made it to Emden. Fingers crossed I get loaded on it soon.

Me too. Watching it like a Hawk. The TYD update tomorrow should show us on the ship. :-)

Time to start buying my list. Intake screens, radar mount, radar unit, cup holders...... And so it goes.

well I’m getting silver wheels, but I’m not sure they’re showing the standard GT4 wheels

These are the silver wheels I’d better get!

I have silver. That pic looks like Satin Platinum, which I’ve seen in person, to me.

You can source colored key-fob side pieces all over Amazon. I think I paid $11 for mine.
There are so many different vendors selling them, you can order several in BLUE from different sources and one or more will match Shark Blue.

A five week delay due to colored key would be a direct blow to the sensitive private parts; that sucks. Ouch!
