Adding Packages
Hi guys,
I ordered my 06 on the 10th of July. I was expecting to find out it would be built around November. I called them friday and found out it would be ready before the end of August! Wow, talk about not being prepared.
I leads me to a question though. After talking to my fellow household members, who will undoubtably need to pull my car out of the driveway on a regular basis i came to this conclusion: I need to buy the automatic transmission package, which i didnt include in my original order. I think i'll be happier with this in the long run anyway, as i find manual shifting to get tedious (its a personal preference, im just not a gearhead)
How long do i have before the build date to modify my order, and will there be any hassles involved? I called the dealership but they said they'd have to get back with me, which is a little spooky. Apparently the person i talked with didnt know how to make changes to an already active order, yay.

Well, the problem is my housemates have 3 other cars and we park in a "1 lane" driveway. As much as i hate it, we are constantly blocking each other in so people have to move each other's cars. I really don't want to get woken up at 5:00 just to move my car cause no one else can drive a manual...

RE: Adding Packages
i have the same problem with my girlfriend's house. she has 3 roommates so everybody is always getting blocked in. i just always make sure i park behind her b/c she knows how to drive stick ( i made a funny) and knows better than to hurt my baby. she already thinks i love my car more than her...i wont confirm it, but i wont deny it. go with the stick and park it in the grass

RE: Adding Packages
To answer your question with another question. Did a VIN get assigned to your car? If it has, you are locked into what you ordered. If not, then you change the order up until the time a VIN (serialized) is assigned.
BTW, get stick....they are so much more fun to drive.

RE: Adding Packages
I ordered a stick- fearing the inevitable teaching the wife to drive without 'frying the clutch/rolling into car behind her' thing...sad thing is I'm just about certain once she 'gets it', she'll want one too...maybe she shouldnt learn to drive stick
