Cool Finally saw my first CGP...& bought one!!!

I have been waiting to make my decision between blue & gray until I could see a gray one in person, and after getting my first look at the Carbon Gray Pearl today, I've decided that it will be my choice.... love the blue/green highlights in the sun.

Pictures don't do it justice.

Any thoughts on where to go in the Bay Area for a straightforward deal?

TIA,
SJHCL

Well, Marin Acura responded to my email and has the car I want in stock (CG/Ebony/Auto/Nav) and has agreed to list price. We'll see if that story changes when I get there...

Everything was as promised...

After reading about multi-month long wait-lists for CGP's, I couldn't believe that they would have the one I wanted in stock, but they did and I ended up driving off with it 90 minutes after arriving at the dealership... a very smooth transaction indeed...

Wow, that was fast! I talked with half a dozen (contacted maybe 10) dealerships at the end of July and still had to wait two weeks to get a CG/Quartz 5AT navi (would've preferred CG/Ebony).

Went to one dealer, only had one on hand and it was silver (like almost every car on the road) and i would have had to wait 5 weeks for any more. Second dealer, same thing. Went to a third and he actually had a CGP/ebony/nav sitting there... for about $750 less then the other guys.

I love it... everything except for the door rattle on the drivers side from the stereo, but nothings perfect.
