Thanks so much for the sympathies and good wishes. Ordeal is an apt term describing my journey into Shelbyville, lol. The car has been finished mechanically and has been roadworthy for months but little niggling problems with either small trim items or components, cosmetics have resulted in delay after delay. Maddening.

For example, last week Erick(Voss) was detailing the car in anticipation of returning it to the dealer in prep. for delivery when he happened to look down and discover a chunk of ceramic coating missing from a side pipe at the weld line...result..remove and take to plating shop for a redo...week or so added to the wait.

Think I'm used to it now, hardly bothers me at this point. Keep telling myself it's better to discover issues while still at the builder's. It placates me I suppose. It is close though I fear jinxing the deal by simply saying so, lol.

Hope to soon attend a group function, Saturday breakfast, etc. and finally be able to show off my new ride. Thanks guys.

Happy motoring!
Dan
