I'm not taking delivery until the 21st because the lease is up on my ML on the 20th. So it looks like I'll be good to go! :thumbup:

Well, finally got in from all the paperwork, then driving it for almost 200 miles today around town! I absolutely love it. I just feel like a kid when driving it, it looks soo cool with the 20" 214's and the stance and handling are great. It rained on me already so I need to get it cleaned up and take some pictures. I'm amazed at the power of the car. I also checked the window sticker, and was thinking that the turbo diesel was rated at 245hp but the sticker said 265hp, pleasantly surprised by that, even if it was the rating all along.

The car was in great condition, well cleaned, no dings or scratches. I've already scheduled my tint appt. on Sat AM and an appt. with the body shop to paint match and install my M-Sport door trim pieces and get rid of those unsightly black ones (IMO :)). More modifications to come.

The one thing that I noticed, and maybe it is because the car is so new, is that the seats are REALLY firm. I ordered the comfort seats, and while I have it adjusted the way I like, the seat padding is just really hard to me. Not unhappy with it, just surprised.

To answer a previous posters question, I ordered it on June 26 and it arrived today August 5.

Nice, enjoy

What was the number of days from 'Production Start' to "arrived at dealer"? This is the most important number for predicting most deliveries... (anyone can find out their partucular production slot (and start date) then just add the 'build and transport" to it)
