What the hell did you think it was?
that's sweet, I just wanted to be sure. I don't know many ATOTers who would be able to even dream of it. Congrats.

My thoughts exactly.

And he's from Canada nonetheless. I've never lived in Canada, but I'd imagine a small rwd roadster is not the best type of vehicle to get through a Canadian winter with..

There's a delay in excess of a year in order to get them because demand is so high. When your turn comes up they give you a call, and you can either buy it then or ask to be passed on (if you pass you go to the end of the list, which means you have to wait over a year from the day they call you.) Sure, it can't be driven in the winter... but I'm at school for most of the year outside of town anyways.
