Level 4A+ here. I've never had to wait this long for something I want so much before. I don't care for it AT ALL.

Having been in 'the thing' for a few weeks, I'd be a 10; Out of body experience.

I am a 5 as well, with a hint of 4a. The lack of any good lease deals is making trying to get the best deal to be a bit nerve-racking and mentally and emotionally draining. I only hope it will all be worth it in the end. It better! Wonder how much I could get for a kidney though. Hmm....

You need to add, is waiting to order but must take care of other loans first, or needs to save for a good down payment.

Maybe 2a ???

I may be at stage 2, but I'm tormenting myself whether I should place my order now and not get much if any discount from MSRP, or wait a couple of months when dealer inventories improve and they become more willing to give discounts...

But the big dilemma for me is the knowledge that starting in July, the 09 MY cars can begin the production process, so that's just 6 weeks from now.... So why not wait those few weeks?

My CA has been calling me trying to nudge me over the edge and place my order. He's not helping my situation at all...
