I picked the car up for $34k OTD. I threatened to leave and go somewhere else and that other dealers had lower price but couldn't get any lower... I believe the fact that laguna blue is hard to find and the dealer just got it in, only 5 miles on it and i was first to test drive, worked against me. All in all, it was a good deal I did get it for invoice and they gave me about $1000 more for my trade then most get for the same car (my car was pretty beat up too) . Also my first payment isn't due for 45 days and I got the 2.9% financing.

Congrats! I have the same color and its awesome.It attracts too much attention and I rather stay low key.So much for that...
It does attract a lot of attention.... I must admit that blue draws you in. I have already had a ton of head turns, people yelling out nice car, or damn that thing must be fast, etc.

How do you upload images? I can't figure it out for the life of me.

Enjoy your new car. Take the time to review your owner's manual.

Sorry to bring back an old thread but there is still one thing I am unsure of....

I have plenty of experience on the track and understand what normally needs to be done before and after, but I am not sure what to do if you track during break-in. (I will have around 700-800 miles when/if I track it) Going by honda it seems that the car is still techinally in breakin mode until 7,500 and I should be using regular oil during that time. The way they put things it almost seems like I shouldn't track for 7,500.......

How many miles should I wait before I can hit the track? Is it ok to have the break-in oil in there while at the track? What fluids should I swap out before and or after? Can I run the entire day or should I do half sessions or something? With potential of hitting the track for 2hrs+ I just want to be really safe. (I am referring to ROAD COURSE tracking)
