Picked up today!!

Just picked up my new baby today and I am in love! Everything about this car is amazing.
The leatherette is extremely nice and the ipod/usb adaptor works great.
I got the regular system and I would have believed if someone told me it was the premium system, its that good!
Oh yea and comfort access is the coolest thing ever and I'm so glad I got it. :wub:

on a small negative note there was a decent amount of condensation in the passenger side head light when I picked it up and it hasnt fully gone away yet.
These things should be air tight but im guessing I have a leak? The dealership made note of it and gave me a paper saying it can be changed under warranty if it doesn't go away.

I'm definitely going to be going back soon to get the head light swapped. Also the driver side head light was perfect at the dealership but i started to notice a very small amount of condensation after driving a little while. Has anyone else had this problem?

Still this car is everything its advertised to be and is well worth the 40k!

Here's two crappy cell phone pics but you guys already know what it looks like

Congrats on your new One! I had the condensation too after I picked the car up. I thought it was odd but decided to see if it would go away. I've had the car for two months now and haven't noticed it again.

That's the "purplest" I've ever seen the SGM get!

thanks for the reply, I guess I'll see if it sticks around and/or comes back whenever it's washed. If it does I'll get the headlight swapped.

Something like that will drive me crazy everytime I wash the car!

Although your camera (understandably) didn't do well in capturing the true nature of SGM (saw it in person and can't wait to get mine), it did a pretty good job picking up the condensation. Wow -- that IS significant! :eyebulge:

No worries, you have a awesome new 1 and a promise to get the light replaced if necessary. Congrats and enjoy in good health! :thumbup:
