sfm6s1675 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Got a surprise call yesterday...I have good news, your car is in! Only problem I was in an all-day meeting and Tuesday the dealerships close at 6. So I struggled to maintain focus in the meeting...which was impossible to do, but after all, the job is paying the bills...and was relieved when it was over. Had my daughter drop my wife and I off at the dealer and THERE IT WAS....even better looking in person. The salesman said he was going to fill it up for me but said since I was there, I could drive. Went to the gas station and was greeted with a comment of "Holy $%, that's one BADASS car!" Pretty cool. Signed the paperwork, dropped the top, and cruised the rest of the evening. Am now a proud member of the black vert mafia! Wanted to post last night but was too busy and got home too late! WHAT A BLAST Let me try and upload some pics....

KKhanlian Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Congrats, The Red and Black is awesome!! Did they change the policy on verts for 09'? Are they allowing you to get stripes now? or is that just a red package option? All the best Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfm6s1675 Posted August 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Thanks everyone, for the nice replies. I don't believe the tail lights have changed, it is probably how the sun is shining on the car. The stripe policy is still the same...no stripes on verts with the exception of the red stripe package only. I debated a while whether to have the dealer add on white ones but some of the folks with red stripe cars on this forum changed my mind....the red stripe package is really neat. Finally, not to disappoint msmap but pics are of my wife and youngest daughter....wife will drive sometime but my daughter needs to learn to drive a manual first...but NOT ON THIS CAR!!!

Sherri Leicht Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 It sure looks like amber turn signals. That would be cool if they brought them back like on the 99, 01 cobras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
