That bar isn't very high.

Just got a call this evening that mine is at the dealership. They have to "service" it and get it to the detailer. I hope to pick it up Monday evening.

Salesman admitted he wasn't quite sure how to sell it to me at this very moment because he couldn't find any 2017 lease program info! I'm sure it exists but may not be in the dealers' hands yet.

I received an email a couple of weeks ago that everything had been moved up a week. I guess that means that it was built last week.

I absolutely love the 19" black diamond polished Orbit wheels. I think they are extremely underrated here on the forums. I'd gladly give up my 20" Gyrodynes for those.

+1. If those had been available in 20s, that's what I would have opted for. The Black/Diamond Cut Gyros are a decent alternative, though.

So far I have two important things to report relevant to other discussions here (I will cross post in the proper threads as well):


1. The car crackles and pops like mad in dynamic, even at low speeds, just have to get it up around 3000rpm. I'm sure it has had whatever ECU update some were worries about making the cars quiet.


2. The meridian system sounds fantastic. Now, mind you, I test drove a 2016 that sounded like garbage - muffled, rattling, etc. I cranked some tunes to verify that mine was in the clear, breathed a sigh of relief, then promptly turned off the music and opened the exhaust.

Congrats.. Absolutely beautiful.. Love the IRR and wheels... Wish I had chosen that combo.. Oh wait...I did! You have impeccable taste!!!

BTW.. I was the first to order those wheels at my dealer. Now a number of his base and S inventory come in with them.

Also, are you planning on getting it wrapped? Highly recommend with IRR. I waited until after first rock chip and wish I had done it earlier. Check threads on forum.

I'm on the fence. It's a lease. I think it's highly unlikely that I'll be buying it....but there's that 1% chance...

Curious to hear if other people who lease are doing clear bra? Other reasons I should consider?

I received an email today that my '17 is already on the boat and will arrive a month ahead of the scheduled delivery. The downside is that I'll likely be out of the country when it arrives.
