We went back to the dealership this morning, filled out the financing paperwork, and left a deposit, so now I am officially waiting for my Jasper Pearl TCH. That's the good news. The bad news is there are two other customers waiting for Jasper Pearl ahead of us, and an unknown number of other customers waiting for other colors.

We told them that if we get to August with no Jasper Pearl we will be willing to accept another color (just not blue) with preference for gold or silver or gray, and if we get to September 30 and they still have no TCH for us then we'll go back to Jasper Pearl only. If I am not going to benefit from the bigger tax credit then I am getting the color I really want.

I am so excited...
