Anyone 100% buying the day they arrive?

Hello all

. I am back. I am psyched on the pre-release info. 550 HP is a big increase. I have a feeling this may be a monster on the track. The magnetic ride control sounds great too. Technology is a cool thing to add to a Cadillac. Is anyone definetely going to buy as soon as they hit the lots? I remember having an early 04 and I think I want to bite again. I hope the option list isn't too ridiculous($$$). I liked the one option only on 04 and 05's.Anyway, just curious if you anyone is 100%. If my finances are right, I am 90%. This is all assuming road tests go as predicted.

yes, I am second in line at my dealership- - deposit already in. No mark up, and I get to order their second allocated vehicle.

I'm 1st at my delaership. It depends on the deal they give me.

I have the first allocation spot at my dealer. As soon as they can order, I'm in.

I will be waiting, not too worried about where i am in line with allocations, i want to see how they perform for a couple months...

i'll be talking to one of the forum dealers to work on pricing and whatnot once the options structure is worked out.

I told my dealership in Scottsdale that in a year from now, when a SUPER CLEAN one comes in on trade, call me and I'll take it. I'm gonna' let someone else take the 20 grand "hit".....

I'm thinking I'll wait til the spring. I already have a V I can't drive. It is now -25F here with a wind. My truck fishtails just driving along. Having the new V would be a big temptation to drive when I shouldn't.

Hate to say it but anyone with a brain should be waiting. GM (like many other OEMs) has certainly proved over the years that buying early production of any new car is only rewarded with the lion's share of unresolved issues.

My '04 is perfect. I'm still on my original diff.

Congratulations!

What's that got to do with my post?

'04 was the first year of the Vs... Mine didn't have a "lion's share of unresolved issues."

My '04 was built in March and I haven't had a huge amount of issues. Most have been common with newer years as well. And I love having a classic. Can't wait until my stable has an '04 and '10....

I guess I'm just brainless. Need a car because the lease is up in August though.
