Anyone in southern California area willing to show me their 1M? VO and AW if possible. Please pm me. Thanks a bunch.

Finally got my production date set in November. I here in Southern California for another week. I'm still torn between AW and VO. Wondering if any 1M members in Southern California would be kind enough to show me their AW/VO so I can make my final decision on color. Thanks.

look for cars and coffee or Caffeine and octane or what have you type events..

Valecia orange is a pretty color.. the real question is... are you willing to roll in an orange car... if you have no issues with the attention a unique color like orange, yellow.. etc.. will bring.. then go with VO. White is such a "safe" decision..
and of course it's $500 cheaper.

I got the AW but my car is not here yet. It is awaiting a vessel to transport it over here. I will have it in about 2months i think if you can wait

I just saw one today. Have to say, I wasn't as wowed with the VO in person as I thought I'd be. It's more subdued in person than it is in pictures. That's just my opinion (so please don't flame), but in pictures...absolutely impressive...GREAT color!!! I think the color may get more attention because it's the color of the 1M rather than the fact that it's orange. In the sun though, I can really see the color coming to life (as others have mentioned numerous times).

Thanks, but I won't be back in Southern California by then.

Where are you? I am in OC and would be happy to take you for a drive in my AW 1M.

AW1M took me for my first ride too and also saw the AW 1M. Seeing it again helped calm my jitters about not getting VO or BSW.

I am very grateful for that, and very cool of you to offer it to another addict.

Hello. I actually saw my first VO on the streets a few weeks ago in Downtown LA.
It was just parked by the curb and I was WOWed.
It made the body stand out and looked great.
My friend says he spotted it as well and commented that the exhaust noise was quite good.
Maybe if you stalk the streets of Downtown LA you could spot it

Thank you AW1M for taking the time to meet and show me your 1M, and also for giving me a ride. But now it makes my waiting even harder. Hopefully I'll see a VO before I leave Southern California. PM me if your ever in my area. Thanks again.
