There is nothing like that new car smell!

I had an 91 Escort GT in my 20 something days (1st brand new car I owned). It was a little speed demon back in the day (127hp Mazda engine, 5MT) when most I4 cars were barely breaking 80-90hp. I had to trade it in because of a growing family a few years later. It was A LOT of fun to drive!

Enjoy it as much as you can before family, car seats, vacations, little league games, etc...

Traded my 2011 RDX SH-AWD Tech for a new 2012 ZDX Tech that had been on the dealer's lot for over 300 days. I loved the RDX but the deal was too good to pass up.
