Congrats, it looks like you got fully loaded RC. Infrared will definitely look good on your car. Also, did not know that the premium 19 inch wheels could come with all weather tires.

Dude:
That's pretty much my car, except I don't have the ML, and I have the spoiler, which any dealer can add. I get a lot of comments, especially on the paint. You will enjoy this a lot.

Funny thing is that I test drove the Porsche Cayman, C-Class coupe and BMW 4 series and was only the happiest in the RC. I know, to each his own, but I love the Luxurious ride quality, the ergonomics paired with HOT styling of the RC. The Cayman looked like a toy car IMO.

Dude, the RC was pretty much the only thing I was looking at. My salesman gave me a very good trade-in value for my SC430, which was 14 years old, but in excellent shape with low miles.
You may not like this part of the story: on the first day of delivery, the salesman called me to drive the first RC, a white one without many options, if any. I liked the drive, but gave him a list of the one color and the options I needed and was willing to wait for. He cautioned that such a specific list would take a while, as deliveries were slow with the new model and the dealers were not trading cars because of the demand. Still, he had someone in the building call around and they talked to a dealership in Michigan (Grand Rapids, I think) who had the car exactly as I had specified. That salesman said it was not sold yet and was in the shop getting a spoiler added. He told my guy he only had one serious RC customer so far, and that guy was looking for a white one stripped down. So they traded, and two days later, after a transportation charge, I had my car exactly as I preferred. (So did some guy in Michigan.) Sorry to hear you had to order one and will have to wait, but it's worth holding out for what you want, as you will have it for a pretty long time.

Two months is nothing. I ordered an SC430 when it was still a "concept car," and was put on the waiting list as #12. Eighteen months later, after 11 other early birds got cars, I was able to pick it up and drive it home (April, 2001). At that time, there were about 150 behind me on the waiting list (that's the list at my dealership); I should have ordered two, as they were being re-sold at a premium.

Potentially we will create a line for leather trunk mats. However, we are currently focusing on only floor mats. Check out our website, you will like the product. www.autopreme.com
