Screeeeech! I finally received a VIN# and an estimated delivery of August 15th - almost 24 weeks after the order went in. OMG, I don't know to stop grinning.

For some of us, the ship is coming in

Congats fitzknits! Did you get the colour and package you ordered?

YOW - I think that is why I waited so long - I held out for my first choices.

Tonic - You are getting an f-sport? Too cool! You will probably have one of the first in Canada and some of the first pics of an f-sport in the snow. Did you choose the blue?
I would have considered the f-sport but I have had enough of waiting.

Still grinning.

Fitz,

It looks like my car was sharing the voyage with your car. My car should be ready for pickup on August 11th. Matador Red Mica CT with Canadian Premium Package.

Woo Hoo!!

oof, been too busy to check the forum for two days...

YOW - That's great! I thought you might hear about the same time.

About the sound system - I didn't get a chance to compare between trim levels and I really didn't want leather seats (makes me wish we had choices like in the US). I am not to bothered if the system is not up to snuff because - if I stay in love with the CT- I will trade up to the CT300h when it comes out. A couple of years with this one should let me know exactly which options I want to add/am willing to pay for.

It's tough The Premium Package costs just about $5000 more that the touring package. That's a lot! It does come with a large number of additional features. For us, the premium audio, driver seat memory, rain sensing wipers and rear backup-up camera made the package worth the price.

The good news for you is the anticipated resale value of the car has gone up considerably since the car was first released in March. It should be worth a lot if you're going to trade it in a couple of years.

Hey. I just heard from my dealer.... ETA Mid septembre. I excited.
Fire Agathe premium with beige lesther.

Congrats! I love the brown and beige colour combination. We put that in as our second choice.
