Ok, that is a 'week one' whine. Needs more grit, more passion, more whine! Put some heart into it! First, you do not dismiss the whine UNTIL you actually have made the whine.

You look like a wimp when you apologize BEFORE you whine. Stand up and whine like a man!

It was a good oppertunity too! Here, take a look.

Really is a beautiful color. I thought about it before I ordered my car, but would have had to wait longer for my car to get here and the WAIT IS ALREADY KILLING ME! ARRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

See?

I'm beginning to think I've already flunked out of SSoW. I'm sorry for being such a disappointment.

It's just that I can't come up with a good whine since I'm so distraught...in fact, you might say that the rest of you are in much better shape than me since you can come up with a whine. Yeah, that's it...

Did I mention that I wish this color was an option on the MCS?

Welcome to NAM dmjarra! Hope you find some good info, good people, and enjoy your stay. Production is at most 3 days including paintshop (it seems). Then timing is quite variable for when you'll catch a ship, how long at the inspection facility stateside, etc. There are lots of threads on the process. Good luck!
