Lol, I have done that a couple of times, but I quickly learn when I hear the engine :)

Awesome stuff.
Budget won't allow a 1M unfortunately. But totally jealous :)
When I initially placed the order I was told may be a 6 to 8 month wait. This wasn't too bad as we were building a house at the time and thought that if the car arrived in Jun we would have been...
Has anyone who place a factory order in 2012 receive a build date for their vehicle yet?
I placed my order at the end of Oct 2011, and I still don't have a build date.
Not too sure if I can...
