Triton,

Believe me, I can appreciate how you feel about driving the car. I can still remember the way I felt when it was so close.

Now that I've had the car for a while and have some miles on it, I'll say with caution that it's not as ill tempered a car to drive as I was afraid of. BUT that's after 15 months and 5000 miles of driving that I say that. I have no idea about your experience, ability, etc. but for me, I was much more comfortable learning to drive my 480 hp, 2500 lb car in good weather in familiar surroundings. If you're comfortable with it, right on, you da man! If you have good weather and no other trouble, you'll have a great trip and you won't be able to get the smile off your face for at least a week! On the other hand if stuff goes wrong it'll really suck. It just depends on your risk tolerence. I went through the same decision in the month of August and I picked delivery. Just the way I am. Anyway, whatever you do I hope it works out! and no matter what you ARE going to love the car!
