I really do miss my car, I swear when I don't have my car I see it more I have seen the luxury model GS but nonetheless I keep seeing it.

Is it supposed to be back before your vacation or do you have to wait until afterwards?

Gotta wait tell after as it will be ready when I leave so the dealership is supposed to get it to find out the problem with the battery. So won't see it tell I get back from vacation.

Bummer...

Have a good trip though! If you're like me I'm sure you'll be worried about the car though.

Tough news, it is a war out there. Earlier in the week I did not get hit but the car behind me got whacked. Felt really bad for him.

Update: They let me know it was done and also that they needed a supplement I hope it didn't go over $1K don't want it on Carfax. They are flat bedding it to the dealership. Can't wait for the pics from my service rep to see if it looks good.

Man 4GS owners are sure having trouble with color blending. It looks like a completely different color. Your eyes aren't deceiving you.

Ugh, I thought so I'm glad I'm still on vacation. This is crazy how in the hell did that pass what made them think that actually matched the rest of the car. Will my car ever look the same!
