Icon20 My Newest Acquisition

Hi folks: Just got a call from my local AD who had a new Daytona come in and reserved it for me. This is a shot driving home with my new purchase. I've waited a long time to add this to the collection, passed on a few, hesitated a few times, hemmed and hawed over white vs. black, but this time said 'what the heck'. I'm very happy with the choice and I'm done shopping for awhile.....

Can't go wrong either way when chosing a SS Daytona.

Congrats.
