I picked mine up (ok, my wife's) last week. Here's the dealer pic, sold sign and all. Our 7yo actually pick out the colour, either LiB or Chilli Red.

That's exactly what I ordered except I have white alloy! Looks great!

Long wait until late Nov for pick up though.

Hi everyone-

We just ordered a LB MCS on Saturday, 9/8 (white roof). It's scheduled for production Week 38 (September 16-22). Key details: Sport, Hypersport, Cold Weather, LSD, black lounge leather, chrome mirrors, rear fogs, sunroof, auto AC, alarm...

Anyone know where to get a Lightning Blue Owner's Club grille badge (if such a thing exists)?

At a minimum, we should get someone to print decals.

The only reason I got LB was because I didn't get another color.

Count me in as well. My LiB/LiB is being produced as we speak. Does anybody else have a matching top? Black/White roofs seem to be the popular choice. I was trying to go against the grain ...

That's a good looking car you got there if I may say so myself
Is that aftermarket chrome around your grill? You thinking about getting stripes?

Are there any matching roof clubs?

Sorry for asking so many questions

Thanks. No, that's the standard chrome. I am not considering stripes, although I was pondering a sunroof graphic. I am not aware of any roof clubs, but there may be....
