*Drum Roll* It's here!
 
So, I just got the call...my IS is here...woot.

I'm going to pick it up now and I wanted to get some last second advice from you all...

Is there anything I should expect to check, receive, or talk about when picking it up?

I can think of the following as far as a new car checklist goes:
  • Walk around the vehicle. Check for dents, dings, scratches, etc.
  • Turn on the radio, nav, seats, make sure everything is working and in order
  • Make sure I have my Z1 accessories (i.e. wheel locks, trunk mat, trunk net)

I'm sure there are tons of other things, but I'm scatter-brained right now with excitement.

What am I missing?

Thanks!

Ed

I did the whole paint check and pointed some scratches out, but I didn't pay attention to much....just wanted to drive it so bad. Congrats. You won't be able to sleep the first few nights, I'll tell you that much :D

Got my VIN yesterday. Car should be in the dealer next week. Ordered 3/15 in Pittsburgh. blk/tan 250 manual tranny. Trying to set up getting a Clear Bra before I drive it home 200 miles plus.

Anything to add on the Pickup Checklist????? No Stickers, No Test drives are main concerns I told the dealer.

Yeah i got my VIN the other day too . . . I ordered march 11. I told my dealer as well about no license brackets, stickers, etc and he gladly agreed. I need to get setup with a clear bra as well . . .

Ha, good advice. :)

Also, make sure you get all your manuals and keys. Oh, and while you're at the dealer, see if they'll throw in some freebies as well. I got a couple extra keychains and aftermarket license plate frames. Congrats on the purchase!
