I ONLY received 1 key. I have never purchased a car before in my life and received one key.

The left rear tire triggered the low tire pressure immediately upon getting in the car. Upon checking - the tire was at 14 psi.

Car had 18 miles left on range.

I really hope they make it right by at least sending me the driver mat and another key.
Hats off to you for being patient. I'd be off my rocker right now if the car arrived in that condition.

This thread has made my evening. Sorry about the trucking BS. Did you chew the drivers ass off? I would have after he offloaded it. Photos immediately after offload and a letter to your seller/ shipper.

With careful modifications you could make that look like she is lifting up her dress! Chick magnet logo!

Promise I will do this. Unfortunately, after a long wait and finally receiving the car today, I travel (fly) for my companies week long annual conference in Las Vegas. Wont be back until this Sunday evening. Already cannot wait to buff / clay and wax it and put up some pictures for you guys for being patient with me.

Gave it a quick bath / set the garage door / set up the phone and took it for a nice relaxing old ride this evening. I can already tell I will be spending time and money on her. This forum will be my new stomping ground.

No, No. It shows a "women" for the DCT automatic trannys. Manual 6-spd gets the male one.

Yeah shipping companies do that. Certain shipping companies will sell you a slot on the top for like an extra $100. They have all sorts of options, it's crazy. One thing though, if the trailer isn't enclosed, it's going to get pretty dirty indeed. Mine came pretty dirty too even on top.

You should definitely try to get another key since it's not exactly cheap.
