LOL, can you see my reflection in the side of the car, kneeling in the doorway. I'm going back this morning to get more pictures. I probably won't be able to pick her up until later on in the day though.

And no, I didn't sleep much last night. I was up an hour before sunrise for a run this morning. Now it's time to drive my daughter to school and then I'm off for the dealer. The service guys should be there...but alas, the salesmen don't come in until 10 or so.

Great color. I am about to pull the trigger on ordering a C4S in cobalt blue. I would really appreciate some pics as I have not seen this color in person and would love to see that color under various lighting conditions. Congrats I am envious!

Default Sorry...

Gents, I snuck in with the service guys this morning to take some pictures. I want to apologize because the lighting sucked. So they're not very good. Also, the car was locked. Man does the fat steering wheel look comfy.

I'll be going back in a couple of hours to pick her up.

Arrow Third Radiator.

Well, it looks like the X51 does indeed come with a third radiator. I think this could be usefull here in Florida.



Nice CGT there in the background.

Thumbs up Options.

Thankfully, it looks like they got the options right.

Thumbs up Michelins.

I've always preferred Michelins. I'm glad to see that the Blue Zoomer is shod with them.





Hopefully there will be some better quality pictures to follow. I'm calling my tint shop right now for an appointment.

My guess is the first X51 on the shores of the U.S. Of course not counting the freebie give away car.

Congrats!

You won't be sleepin' tonight! Wait til you see that color in dim light! Hard to explain, but few paints look that good in the dark! Living with Cobalt paint is like an experience! You will be seeing something new all the time!

AeroSmith,

That Blue just ROCKS!!! That would be the color for me if my color were not already pre-selected.

Noticed the exhaust with the "two sized" ports telling the world either you have the Sports Exhaust package or perhaps the X-51 (which we all now you have).

Give us a picture of that engine so we can see the "Carbon Fiber" housing on that 3.8 X-51 engine!

Looks great, can't wait to read your "first impressions"!!! Capture a sound file if you can of that car running!

Congrats!!!!
