Ok, I am up and ready to wait...I have alot of things to do in the house, like clean, laundry, etc.....I dreamt about it showing up last night. Of course, it was an odd dream and I won't elaborate!

Not yet......driver called and said he could not get here until tomorrow morning which creates alot of upheval in my office! I am totally bummed. got the old car ready to go, plates off, etc. for some reason, this seems like a long dream. Now, tomorrow, I have to come home, get the car, give back the old car and return to the office in my Lexus Gx 470. My dogs will be at the kennel tomorrow, so I can't even drive the car until tomorrow night!!!!!!! No, I can't take the day off. I am a doctor and all of my appointments are booked months in advance! But, I guess that is the price to pay for having the opportunity to own a great car! I promise I did get a car!

DRJMK-

Someone could sure use a 'doctor's note' about now!
(For all the ones we write over time, jeepers.)

Just living vicariously through your delivery!
I hope the 'delivery driver' doesn't rack up too many miles for you!

Soon!
Doc

It's here........it came this morning and I am going to post the delivery pics. The driver's name is Jose and it arrived in one piece, but dusty. I am going to wash it and then take real pics, but here's some prelims...the car is atlas grey, black full leather, PDK with SCP plus, multifunction wheel, heated and cooled seats, heated steering wheel, carerra classics with PS2's, XM, nav, ipod, universal, etc. All I can say is wow! I have only driven it in the neighborhood right now. tomorrow, it goes to work.

Congrats! She's a beaut!

Too bad the dealer didn't spring for a covered carrier to protect against potential flying stones and debris doing damage to the finish during that long haul. Hope it arrived in perfect condition. Can't wait to see more pics.

Thank you all! The XM is already on, but the sound of that engine is unreal! I am getting ready to wash and then take some pics. I'll post more tomorrow. Did anyone say 'permagrin' is back for me! My nephew loves the new 'dato-wheel' aka batmobile. He said 'oh, wow, new datowheel, Jenny' ! That's a nice ride! it will probably take me a week to sort it all out. all I can say is Chris and Porsche of North Olmstead have been an excellent organization to work with. The Ventureshield is installed and is seamless. The Lojack is installed and in an unknown position for me. I am totally thrilled with my purchase!!! I ordered some goodies from Phil at detailers domain, namely the swissvax and I am going to detail the car probably tomorrow night or this Friday.
