What a xmas... Got a SS Daytona after 5 month on the Waitlist

Hey Gang,

I just picked up my white ss Daytona for mspr ($9500 CAD) in Calgary.

The funny thing is..... I was only on the waitlist for 5 month. I signed up while I was at the Stampede in July... And on the 19th stopped by to see how I was on the list.

The salesperson told me that they will be acouple in the next 2 weeks... And he'll call me later to tell me where on the list I am.

The next day, I get a phone call from them saying that they have a white ss if I'm interested. I told them yes, FedEx a money order to them, and I got my old neighbour to pick it up for me.

I met my old neighbour yesterday and I picked it up from him.... The one thing I'm confused about is..... isn't there a green hologram on the back?

No more holograms on Daytonas, as of mid 'Z' production I believe. Clear seal sticker with series # on them now.
Congrats, Steve
