I was expecting it towards the end of this week given that the ship docked on June 14th - but it was at my dealership ready for pickup on Saturday... dealer calls me out of the blue @ 1:00pm and tells me whenever you're ready to pick her up (I guess that means it must have arrived the day before) - 13 miles on the car when I picked it up (hmm... someone went for a joyride.. ) - it's beautiful I will post picks but I spent the whole weekend driving so couldn't take any pictures...

Will post more promise !!! [So far the voice recog works reasonably well although it keeps taking me to audio controls OR vent settings whenever I ask it to do anything else - ahh well, will talk to my car some more hopefully she'll understand me - first woman to do so anyway!!!]

C ya!!!

Congratulations on your car.
I have the same problem with the voice. It likes to go to vent settings sometimes.

Voran: Congrats. Mine had about 11 miles on it when I picked it up; I thought that strange 'cause I'd seen some posts saying between 2 and 4. They told me it was all from the factory or vpc, except for 1/2 mile back/forth to their service facility.

Mine also went to vent settings a lot when I tried to talk to it. However, after my first month, this has improved significantly. I haven't seen anything on how or if it trains itself. Also, is yours a woman's voice? Mine has a man's voice, until you're in to Nav, when the original Nav Babe takes over. Please let me know. I'd much rather have a woman changing my vent settings!!

voran,

Congratulations!

hmmm...I know it's a tough choice: post pics or drive car, post pics or drive car, post pics or drive car ......

I see you have your priorities squared away!

Looking forward to the pics, though, when you are able.
