What colors? I wonder if these are the February dealer demo cars... None of our initial batch of customer ordered cars are in the States yet.

So, should these be dealer beaters, how long before one is @ my dealer in Southern Oregon? My dealer is of the impression there will be an example to abuse by the end of the month.

Back in November, the published plan was that they would have demos at the dealers in mid February. Yours will be coming from Oxnard, and I bet if these are in NJ, yours are in Cali right now.
