I dread the day that I picked my car up (or attempted to). Not because of the car, but because of the horrible experience the sales team provided me. I remember saying "thank god I don't buy a new car often because this experience sucked".

that's too bad, a good dealership makes all the difference, and i have a great one. small town dealerships are wonderful.

i love the tinted all-glass roof of the coupe. it expecially looks good on a lighter color car. you don't really notice it on my car with the dark capri blue.

2003 Citron Green C230KMT
my salesman was great thru the entire process. MBSD just recently changed locations and their new dealership is awesome. eitherway i had a great buying experience. i still look forward to taking my car home, but atleast all the paperwork is over and all thats left is just to get in the car and drive home. i got the blue for the sills. i saw the pics of the green and i didnt like them at all. i wish they could have looked more like the green on the car. if i ever see a luminecent strip that looks like citron id buy it in heart beat. but for now i have the blue, which is a great color and looks awesome, but i really wish green looked as good.

truelove79, webasically do have the same car except for wood trim and color. i remember thinking that many times while seeing your sig before your car arrived.

thanks everyone for your input and help. this has definately been a great buying experience for me. ill post my impressions on the car when i get a chance. but first im going to definately drive it like there's no tomorrrow!!!

Great color. Congrats.

Now do us all a favor and stay off this forum for a couple of weeks. At least long enough to wipe those of your face. You know that you'll be looking at your car every 5 sec instead of concentrating on your typing. :p (j/k)

ARG! Those dang blue things! lol I for the first time VERY carefully washed my car and noticed these sticky marks in perfect shapes at the ends of my car and was wondering how it got there. At first I thought someone hit me, then I got to the other side and it was the same mark. LOL, then I see your pictures and it's sticky residue from those blue pads. Can't believe it took me this long to realize them... guess my car just looks clean even when it's dirty :p

Sometimes though glue lines are hard to see until they start collecting dirt and then you start to see a black line.

Just double checking, I do realize I gotta get out of OT more often, but lately just answering posts I'm involved with takes a lot.
