Don't fight it.  The sooner you get it the better.

I'm guessing he was picking up something like a pkg of light bulbs rather than say........4 sheets of 1/2 inch plywood?  ;D

Cool.  I can't wait to see one in person.

Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

As I suspected I really think this is a manufacturer demo or something.  Because it was also tweeted by a Senators player as he was getting a ride.  And it was at a dealer here on Saturday.

Up, seems like the case here. Same licence plate.
To say I like this car is a gross understatement.

Maybe a red one, then I could blast Prince's song Little Red Corvette as I humiliate "exotic" cars.

Silver with a red interior would be wicked.

Yellow would be eye catching.

Black with black wheels and red interior would be mean looking.

The car looks awesome in pics, I'll have to go look at one in the tin soon.

Heh, I'm 100% sure that's what the case is. I was picking up a tester from GM Oshawa and this car pulled out of the complex in front of me; I was following it all the way to the highway.

Also, I'm pretty sure I've had a tester or two with the same first four letters on the plate.

I'm not stuck on that spoiler (they don't all have that, do they?) but everything else is pure wicked.

This was one of the four original prototypes GM Canada received. One of my colleagues drove it a few months back. I've seen this unit all over the GTA, most often in the Markham area. Two blue ones were being used by the PR team/Product teams for promotional purposes, from what I was told.
