Ordered dec 13th, arrived jan 18th! Pics soon to come, I picked it up tonight so was not able to take any. The car is definitely worth the wait... all i can say is wow.
One question though, to those of you who ordered yours and drove it off the lot.. did you smell anything funny, like the engine breaking in or something? Or maybe the A/C being ran for the first time? is this normal or am i just paranoid. I only smelt it when i was at a stop. Thanks in advance for the input, and pics will be up tomorrow!

Thanks, i figured it was normal... although i don't recall my 08 Si having any smells and i got it with 2 miles on the odo. I'm looking for excuses to go drive it......
