New 6 ordered here.

A GT-i4 w/GFX, Premium Audio, Moonroof, Sport Grille. In Dark Gray[Steel Gray in the States. Same color code].

BUT it's not made yet. 8 Weeks. Middle of May. But I planned it that way. It's a summer driven car.

And yes I know that's a 'common' color with the 6, but here in Newfoundland it'll be the only one of that color with that trim.

Congrats...and good color choice. My sister is in the marker for a car, and I'm trying to talk her into a 6. I figure she'll let me drive it at least once in a while.

How close are you paying to MSRP?

Below that by a little anyways. But still only within 3 digits.

If that's the same color as the one I saw in the showroom (in Nov ), it's damn sweet. The only thing I don't like is how some of the packages make you get a moonroof, especially the safety ones. I've never really found the appeal of a moonroof... would rather gain the rigidity / headroom, even if it's only a tiny bit.

I'd go with the 4cyl too...some how it just seems more appealing to get one, and mess with it.

The moonroof does not decrease rigidity at all in the 6. The Triple H construction and integrated strut bars make sure of that.

And I like the light you get from a moonroof

Hmmm, well
I"m not in the market for one, but I am hoping they come out with the hatch/wagon in time for my mom to get one, she is about ready for a new car

Not until the 2005 model. March or April of next year I do believe.
