The funny thing is....gmconnects still says it's bayed in San Antonio!

My dealer just called and told me my car probably will not be delivered till next Monday ...

Have to call it as I see it, this is piss poor service by GM. Should not take from point of order to final delivery of 67 days when there were no constraints at all.

My Ashen Gray Metallic got delivered today!

My wife and I both swear it is darker than CGM and it definitely has a mix of blue AND gold metal flake in the paint....it's gorgeous and very deep looking!

I'll have better pics tomorrow because the sun was down by the time I got her home. I'll go back to the dealer in a few days and get her IOM Stripes put on and tint the windows but for now, here she is....

What a deal Dirty D. Glad the car made it there unfazed and everything seems to be fine. Loved the pictures too!

How many miles did you put on her last night???

Also, I was wondering why you were having the dealer put the stripes on versus Oshawa???

I had some good news this morning (Chevroletconnects.com)... MY CAR FINALLY ROLLED OFF THE LINE and it appears it went across the street for stripes. Should be here by Christmas VIN: 2G1FT3DW8C9148563

Is mine the last car off the line in the TPW 11/14 thread?

Looks like we're all in about the same boat. I'm actually kind of hoping we got picked to go through QC. The vert top threads are scaring me...

Dirty D - what level tint are you going to go with with your color? I think 25% is max in Texas, but I've been thinking about 30 or 35% on my 45th.

I suppose the only way we'll know if one of our cars goes to QC is if one of them doesn't get bayed again by tomorrow or Friday. From what I've seen, cars that go to QC can be there for several days. That might be a good thing though, as you say. I'm sure hoping there aren't any top problems. I think I'll leave the dealer with the top up just to make sure there isn't a lot of wind noise (that I've read about) coming from the rear. When I get home I'll flood the roof with water to make sure it doesn't leak and then keep a real close watch for wear marks. I'm hoping that by now Chevrolet has worked out all the problems...but I have read reports from guys with 2012 models saying they are having problems. Let's keep our fingers crossed and hope that what we've read is coming from a very small minority.

I put about 130 on her last night, half of that was just getting home from the dealer.

The dealer is doing the stripes because I originally wanted IOM Rally stripes but when I placed my order it wasn't an option from the factory like it was with the CGM previously.

So, I talked to the dealer and decided to even more different than Gray with IOM stripes, I'm going to put a IOM Synergy Stripe on it.

Why did you stray so far from Killeen to buy the car... I know the answer to that. I bought mine 45 miles south of my house and passed by three dealers that seemed convinced I would gladly give them MSRP.

I'm looking forward to more pictures, especially once the stripes are on.
