My dealer called and let me know that my car arrived yesterday. Of course I went right up there to check it out. I took some pictures but haven't been able to attach them. It keep timing out. Any tips????

I didn't know it comes with PDC standard. All in all the wait wasn't that bad as this forum sure took the edge off. The boat landed in NY on Wednesday and the car was in New Hampshire on Saturday. I take delivery Tuesday and will post pictures as soon as I can figure out how to. I did drive it around the lot to check out the HUD.

Make sure your attachments are less than 1mb. If you can make them smaller than 1 mb that would be better. That should help resolve teh timeout issues.

first, click "browse" and pick you file. then click "add this attachment". you can attach multiple pics in one post. after you are done, just click "add reply" and it should be ok. 800 kb should not be a problem. hope this helps . can't wait to see the pics .
