Cosmic Blue Aero wagon on the way....

I ordered one three weeks ago...
When I test drive the 5 speed manual and the 5 speed auto, I was doing a direct comparison to my father's '00 Aero with the 4 speed. I thought the 5 speed did an excellent job of launching the car from a stop. I decided to forego the manual since I thought the automatic was excellent overall. I test drove it in the daytime, so I didn't see the lights.
I ordered my Cosmic Blue wagon with the grey interior (I have a lightning blue Viggen, and the color is fairly close), since I think it looks better with the aluminum dash. I was also concerned about the beige interior looking dirty and how the beige would contrast with the aluminum. I really like it with the grey.
I did throw the wagon into a tight corner when test driving it (I am trading in a Viggen on the wagon), and found the ride/handling characteristics to be just right. The Viggen is rock hard, so this felt luxurious in comparison. I just hope the Aero rims don't bend like the Viggen ones do (I've had one replaced, and two straightened!).
I love my Viggen, but I think I'm going to love this wagon even more!!
Cheers,
Paul H.
