Absolutely! Get to go watch them unload the car tomorrow morning. I'll try to post some pics from that, but definitely once I take delivery!

Wow, car just got here! Got some shots of them unloading it and I even got to sit in it for a second. Now the agonizing wait while they do the PDI...

Hi Jeff,

I will definately have the m100 out this weekend.
It's supposed to be 60 degrees on Sunday. Only
in the western US can you have sub-zero temps
followed by 60 degrees a few days later.

Hope you take delivery of your BO Evora this
weekend. Please send pics.

Hegg, absolutely the BEST color yet on an Evora!!! In the clear winter sunlight against blue skies and mountains, you are one fortunate son. I believe you have found one of the only acceptable excuses for giving up a Pacific Blue M100. Congratluations!

I also wondered how you could have even considered giving up Pac Blue M100... Seeing the pictures of your freshly delivered Evora made me have a big "oh...." moment!

Gorgeous!

Glad the M100 is in the hands of a fellow enthusiast, though. :cheers:

Thank you for the comments. I feel like I've hijacked carlotus's thread, so I am starting a new thread for those interested in more Evora discussion. :)

Carl, hope you took the Elan out yesterday! It was gorgeous over here!

Carl, are you considering coming to LOG31 in Las Vegas? There are enough Elans in CO to make quite a caravan. I'm hoping we Californians will make a similar pilgrimage. It'd be great to see the M100 represented in force this year.

Hi Jeff,

Didn't get the car out, because of snow and ice stubbornly hanging on my street. I looked out this morning and all is clear.
I can't wait to get her out this afternoon with the top down of course as temps should reach the 50's

Today is the big day Jeff, I hope the weather will cooperate so you can enjoy your first day with the BO Evora. Beautiful
color, and one of the best I've seen on the Evora.

Hi Tigerdog,

I will be making the pilgramage to LOG 31 this year, looking forward to putting faces to all the names on this forum.
We have a great group here in Colorado and the M100 is well represented. We have every color ever exported to the
states and the group even has a member with TWO black ones. Looking forward to meeting you Tigerdog, and thanks
for your help in finding rare parts for the car.
