My Car is finally arriving, only one more week can't wait 
. I had a quick question before going to pick it up. Are there any little goodies that I should look forward to getting, such as a key chain or something? The day I went to place my order the person picking up his car had a bow on it and everything. If anyone bought there's from Estate motors in NY and knows of anything that would be great.

My dealer gave me a keychain with an ad on it for the dealership! I also got a Tiffany crystal bowl from them about 2 weeks later in the mail. The bowl was a nice touch but the ad on the keychain made it trite.

I bought mine in Nanuet and got a cheesy keychain. Thought I might get a little somethin else because my dealer took time out to explain how important the post purchase survey was to him- but no. I called Estate actually and they weren't willing to deal on the car at all. How'd you fare on the price?

I got one of the first ones in California back in 9/01. I paid list price after going through Carsdirect. They were able to get me the car and I couldn't do it myself! I would not have used them but I had to if I wanted the car when I did.

Glad estate motors is getting more into a dealing mood. They are the closest dealer to me, but I couldn't get them better than $700 over the best deal. I begged them to match the deal, because the sales woman had been nice in showing the car. However, she wasn't $700 nice. I wound up buying from MB of Greenwich, who delivered the car for $1400 under MSRP+tax&lic. They also threw in winter mats and sent a nice gift basket a few weeks later. We were also able to add in the CD changer for $725 installed.
What specs is your car? Where are you from? We have only seen 1 other on the road so far around our part of CT. You will love the car, it is awesome fun to drive around these parts. It really shows it's breeding on a trip along the winding 2 lane highways.

Just a few answers to your questions. I got the alabaster white with charcoal leather, C5 and C4. Can't Wait! Also Estate Motors were great when I went to look at the car! They gave me a great price right off the back (probably because it was toward the end of the month!)
