Thanks, Kingalien - Light White was front and center at the dealership when we went to pick it up - very exciting to see it for the very first time with that sold sign and know it was mine!!!

Wow!

After all your talk about it, I can't think of anyone more deserving of getting their CM than you!

And I don't see anything orange in that pic at all....

Thanks, all. She was showing red in the pic, but she's a fickle beast. I looked at a number of PR/Black combos, but I've got some kind of a phobia about shiny black - no piano inside, either. I'm quite very happy with the white combo.

Thanks! As soon as I get the permanent plates, I'm putting in for MD personal plates. I've been checking and so far no one has them. Keep your fingers crossed.

Also, Light White looks good. Glad you finally figured pictures out.

Sealy,

Actually, looking at the picture you posted, the red color does have it's merits. I was initially looking at a CM with the Red/Black combo, but I didn't like the contrast. Black goes well with deep red, not bright red. This red looks much better (IMHO) with the white top. More of a bright combo. I like it.

Now, go out and have fun with it.

Mark

Did it come with orange peel paint?

I really like how the white top stands out. Looks great!

Sealy,

The white top with the black wheels - very nice! Hadn't seen this combo on the Pure Red/Orange before.

Now I have an idea what mine looks like, if it ever gets here.
But Mine will be Cosmic Blue with black top. I wasn't too sure about the side stripes. I like them!

Me too. I'm not sure I would have ordered them, but now that they're on the car, I really do like the look.

Cosmic Blue is my other favorite color on a CM. Enjoy! It'll look great with a black top. Are you thinking of white stripes or black ones?

Great pics Tippy, I really like the bonnet and side stripes. Did you do the boot stripes too?

So... where too? I am guessing you will be doing some motoring this weekend .

I do indeed have the boot stripes! I'll have to take more pictures after work. I was in a rush to get photos last night for Facebook and NAM, so I took a couple of quick HDR shots at dusk with my phone. I'll have to break out the real camera and the tripod and take a couple of glamor shots this weekend.

Driving about 110 highway miles to NJ on Saturday early and then back that afternoon, and I'm hoping to hit some backroads this afternoon and on Sunday, though I'll have the dogs with me for a lot of that, and I don't like to throw them around, so no crazy driving.

It will have white sport stripes.
I want my baby! <tapping foot, waiting for call from my MA>

Tippy - Love the car and color / wheels combo! I'm getting the sport stripes for Light White here shortly.

If you don't mind my asking, what did they charge you for the side stripes? I'm thinking of getting them too and am going to get a price from the dealer - just want to compare.

Hmm...I'll have to look at the invoice, which is at home, and I'm at work.. It wasn't something I had done for me; it was actually on the car before I bought it. I believe it was $300-$400, but I got some knocked off the asking price, so you could say it was slightly cheaper than that.

If it's on an ordered car, I would ask the dealer to throw it in. It's the kind of bonus they can give you at cost, so it's $400 to you, but less to them.

I have mine (doing four stripe viper stripes, full length of car bumper to bumper in flat black/white on roof) and am going to attempt the install this weekend myself (well at least the front and rear roof is scaring me a bit) if the weather holds off, then I will finally post pics. Not showing the car till its perfect.
