Congrats. But, I must say I think that was cruel and inhumane punishment on your partner's part.

Leanne - You are very patient I know how it feels. When my DH bought my Rose Gold Daytona, I looked a pictures of it for about six months before we saved enough money to get it.

Definitely worth the wait!
