Congratulations! 
But why do you have to wait two weeks now?

Because he is out of town... am I right ? I assume this is the first time you would rather have your vacation ended as quick as possible
We want pics asap !!!

Forget the vacation, atomic man! You won't be able to have any fun knowing your new baby is crying for attention and wants to be picked up.

Yeah, not to mention it could be stolen...
I've been told that a new beast would never forgive you to let it alone for more than 3 days in a row otherwise the break in period will be a true nightmare for you

Guys! You're right, I'm on vacation! I'm halfway around the world in New Zealand. I wish I could cut this vacation short and tend to my baby asap but I've still got another week in Maui to go.  It's gonna be a very long week. At least I can rest easy knowing that my baby is well taken care of locked up in the detail shop. Daddy's coming home soon.  She's also getting a nice new VR module too. Somebody post a picture of a Lemans blue pix please!

Mattar,
I was actually considering doing just that! Going from the airport to the dealership. Actually, I'll probably have to go home first to get my checkbook!  But it's definitely OFF to the dealership afterwards.
HawaiiM5,
As it turns out, we're actually flying out on the 24th after meeting you to Los Angeles but since they have no flights out on that day, we have to stay overnight at a hotel (at least we'll be at a hotel this time instead of the airport) and then fly out at 6:30 am!! I'll be back in Seattle around 9:30 am so I'll have time to head to the dealership then.
Jason
