Was thinking of picking one up in the next month or two, so is there anyone here who owns one that can give me an owners opinion?

Plus - I don't think you'll b e able to stroll into the dealership and "pick one up". There's going to be huge markup, and a nice, long, waiting list.

Won't be a problem as the dealer near here has two available and it will be about a 4 month wait if I want to order one. Your right about the markup though.

Lol - from the first link I clicked:

"I made my first deposit 10-30-03, I spec. out my car march 2005 and still waiting to this day."

Haha - enjoy the wait! :p


LOL Got me wondering if the dealer said "4 month wait" just to get a downpayment out of me.

Edit: Oh and welcome back :beer:

thanks :)

eh.. my friend got an s4 after graduating from high school (phillips academy andover)

totalled it, got an elise.

EDIT: fiend != friend

oh, and as for opinion on the car... personally, i don't think it's particularly good-looking. About half of the stares you get will be of the "wtf is that" nature.
