Who will be the first to own one on this forum? The race is on.

 

It probably WON"T be me as it looks like the BLUE ones are last to be built.

That’s OK though.
They're training all the factory workers on the first run of Silver & Black ones.

I just picked mine up last night. Silver w/black interior and Navigation. It is so sweet!!!!! I originally ordered a Maxima loaded with the same options and I had problems with the order and am glad that I cancelled it and got the Acura. It is so much nicer all around and drives much better, especially with the short gear box.

 

Not sure here either, they're saying mid-March for me. I have a black one on order.

 

When I originally talked to Acura three days ago and finalized the paperwork they told me March 15th because that was the date that Acura was setting as the release. They were shocked when it got delivered yesterday. My Acura dealership told me that there was a mistake at the Port and it was not supposed to be here this early. I guess I am just lucky for the next 8 days.

 

Whoa, congrats! What's the DOM/VIN?

BTW, what's the deal with the heated seats buttons? Is it on-off or hi-low-off now?

 

I guess he won, yeah I saw your post on Max.org about nissan screwing you... All I can say is you made a right choice I hope you enjoy rowing those gears(I'm jealous) and break her in properly..

P.S. Damn, Shawn S I thought you will be the first one.....

 

I talked to my local dealer yesterday and he said he had a blue 6-speed in Tuesday, but they had to send it back because of some paperwork snafu and they would have it back by Saturday. He is calling me to tell me if he gets it sooner so I can take a test drive and then place my order. I have had to wait because of my lease on the Blazer I drive. But he said it was BLUE...the color I want but no navi


So Shawn you may be getting yours sooner than expected. I will post back after my test drive. The salesman said said it was a sweet ride. I want to see for myself....

 

how much did you pay for it?

 

On-Off. No Hi-Low. where do you find the DOM?

 

On the drivers side door pillar.

 

I hope so, but my dealer seams totally FOCKIN clueless right now as to when they are getting ANYTHING in.

Isn’t there a way to track what’s coming from the factory ???

All I know is I got a check from my credit union burning a hole in my wallet right now.

Shawn,
I just spoke to my salesman. He knew about the 6mt 6 months ago ! He told me it was an offical announcement 6 months ago and to keep it hush hush.....So, now he is going to call me back to let me know when, what color etc....This would be a Northern California dealership which is prob. last to receive......

 

we're supposedly getting a blue one w/ navi here in mpls this month ... i'm waiting for the call ...

 

Heading out to dinner right now. Will check and post later tonight.

 

Good deal 6spdCL-S.

Just got a call from the dealer. Build dates on my Aegean Blue: March 9-13th. Delivery around the 20th.

 

That’s EXACTLY the dates my dealer gave me two weeks ago.
I hope they are good.
We’ll have to see how close our VIN #s are when we get them.

THis is bull shit cause 3 local dealers told me they wont get a blue one in till like mid april......I WANT IT NOW!!!!!

 

It may all be bullshit...but I just talked to the Sales Manager and he said that they had an 03 Blue 6-Speed in the back on Tuesday, but had it taken back because they were early on the release date. He said it will be back on Thursday of next week and for me to come and take a test drive. And it is AEGEAN BLUE. If it only had navi I would go ahead and make the offer now..... So they are out there Shawn...maybe because yours was special order is the cause for delay...

He also said the MSRP is the exact same as a 2003 Auto. No change in price. 31300 was what I was quoted for the one they are getting Thursday and that is non-navi.

 

I wouldn't count on my dealer being right. I had to call him to look up things for me yesterday, and when he called back tonight with info I had to ask him what the msrp was...

RacerXE24, it could be the navi combo with the aegean blue that is taking so long but i've waited this frickin long, 2-3 more weeks isn't going to hurt.

 

DOM was 1/02
