OMG that is going to be 1 sweet ride. I saw the one in a car mag a few weeks ago and it came in 1st, beat out alot of other nice cars. Nice price tag to go along with it. Can't wait to hear your thoughts of it when you get it. Be sure to attach pics as well.

I like their body enhancements, especially the fender flares and front/rear fascia's. Congrats on the purchase.

So did the local dealer taking care of it being dropped out to Mallet or is this something you got to coordinate yourself.
