Hello...

Ok, after agonizing over exterior and interior color, options, wheel size, etc. I decided on this little number. I stopped by the dealer to check out its pre-delivery progress and saw it positioned next to a wealthier (and bigger) neighbor. I opted for Anthracite Blue with a Designo Deep Sea Blue interior.

Good luck with it...I just picked up mine a couple of weeks ago with the same interior color. It's a real head turner!
Enjoy it!

Thanks all.

I officially pick it up tomorrow. In the meantime, here are some additional shots taken while being prepped and tinted (20% on rear window only).
