Thanks! Yes, lots of dealers in Atlanta but none could touch the price at Century. Very positive purchase transaction with these guys, would highly recommend them!

Congratulation man. Beautiful color combo. Atlanta is a big car market so sometimes Franchise dealers don't negotiate as much as they know that they will sell it sooner or later. I am going with a satin black wrap on mine which looks very similar to frozen black. Lets get together one day and make it an i8 day

How do you like the i8 vs M6? maybe still too early for you but what's your initial take on it?

Need a little more seat time but I'll post my thoughts later on the comparison. Very blessed to have an M6 and I8 (wife has a X5d).
