My car is finally in and I plan to pick it up Thursday or Friday of this week. So far, I've asked the dealer to leave off the front license plate bracket (and yes, I'm familiar with the law in Texas but am willing to take the risk) and leave off the Park Place (dealership) badge normally applied to the right side of the trunk/boot lid.

Does anyone have other suggestions as far as delivery instructions/dealer requests? Anything I should be looking out for?

For me, the dealer badge is the biggest thing. And that "Park Place" badge is nasty IMO. A lot of people also ask that the dealer not detail the car in fear that they will create swirl marks. If you do want them to detail it, take a look at the finish and make sure that it looks right, especially if you are getting a dark color. I got my car at Ewing in Plano, and I had them detail the car before I picked it up. It looked pretty good, but I still took it home and clayed it, and applied some zaino (see details forum for info on zaino).

Good luck, and enjoy your new machine. Post some pictures when you can. I look forward to seeing you on the road, and maybe at a meet sometime!

Look the vehicle over very carefully before you sign for it. In our case, we discovered a small ding on the hood, which was rectified on the spot. If we had taken delivery before seeing it, it would have been on us...

Some have complained of paint problems upon delivery. Check the paint carefully. Good luck with the new ride!

Don't make the same mistake a lot of other have. Don't rush home to post that you have a new car, go drive it.

Yes - take delivery during the DAY!!! And in a well lit place so you can look at body/colour variation, dins.... BOTH in and out side. And DO go thru the list with all the options you ordered and ASSUMED.

Mine came w/o the TELEAID that I assumed to be there as negotiated. Take you time NO RUSH

ohhh.. MAKR SURE the license plates are screwed at all 4 corners instead of just the upper 2. Making so much clanking noise went you close the trunk... dont laugh. You will thank me later

And see if you can wait for 2 week before the first posting

Don't get a speeding ticket

Ugh!! My car still isn't here. Dealer says it was put on a truck yesterday and should be here by Tuesday at the latest. I've been pretty patient over the last two months, but the wait now is antagonizing!

Guilty as charged when I got mine. Car and KWIK's advice that is.
