One other observation and again similar to others - FAST. I'm definitely going to have to make a conscious decision to watch my speed. She wants to get into 5th gear badly and that's around 50. Not so bad unless you're on 30mph roads. You simply can't tell how fast you're going as it handles the road so well.

Today she gets a bath and I'm actually going to sit down and start programming her - she's still running on factory defaults outside of radio stations and bluetooth pairing.

Her specs:

MCS with 16" bridge spokes
Cold Weather Package
Comfort Package
Premium Package
DSC
Hi-Fi
Brushed Alum Interior
Sport Leather Steering
Leatherette seats (black and gray interior-a bit conservative I admit)
Xenon Lights
Bluetooth included with one of the packages
