congrats op does your car also come with the six cd changer in the back? you may have some luck loading cd's that way, but as other members have said if you bought it from the dealer there is definitely a small window of time where they'll still fix it so definitely make a list like santa and make sure they deliver on all of it

Okay so here is a bit of an update...I am becoming the dealerships worst nightmare (not my fault )

The goodyear rsa tires with 33k on them have what appears to be dry rot cracking in between the treads. Crazy. Could this be warrantied?

They are replacing the wheels and tires with they get a lease turn in next week. The bubbling on the wheels will be taken care of then, obviously.

The CD changer issue was user error. Oopps.

The dealer replaced both armrests when i dropped car off. They had already ordered the parts before I bought the car. I didnt really care about the pealing, but hey, if you got it, why not replace it. BUT when they repalced the drivers side, the tech must have used the biggest flat heads screw driver he had. As a result he nicked the lower section of the door in two places. Needless to say, they are replacing that next week as well. I feel kind of bad because they dropped 2k off the price of the car because I was a referall and now they are dumping more cash into it. But hey, its gotta be right or they can keep the thing.

The tiny rust bubble on the trunk means they have to repaint the whole trunk lid. Hoepfully they do it right because there is nothing I hate worse than bad body work.

Looks like a nice clean G, glad the dealer is taking care of your concerns. Hopefully the light fuses that were blown isn't something that will reoccur. The 08 17" rims are nicer looking than the current 17" rims (that's what I was referring to regarding the fugly wheels, lol. Those RS-As are a horrible tire, maybe you'll get lucky and a lease return will come in where the previous driver swapped out better tires
Thanks for the pics, looks nice!

I really like the 08 17's so hopefully that's what comes in. We shall see.

Also, I used to run RSA's on my Camaro and I had a great experience with them. I guess times have changed.

The RS-As serve their purpose, just not a good match for a 326hp rwd sedan, you'll be amazed how a nice sticky tire w/ stiffer sidewalls will transform your G from utilitarian to a road hugging fun-machine
