Ordered my new Roadster
I live in Northwest Pennsylvania. I ordered my Roadster on Novenber 17th. I ordered the Limited model in Areo Blue Pearl Coat with the dark slate/medium slate Gray interior and the manuel transmission and GPS navigation radio. I expect delivery in late January, but don't know for sure right now. I want to drive to Florida at the end of February, so hope I have it by then. I was in California recently and saw an Areo Blue Roadster go down the street and that convinced me of the color I wanted.
I was visiting in Arroyo Grande, but was actually at the beach in Grover Beach when I saw the roadster come into the parking lot and then drive away. When you look around on the streets today, you don't see many blue cars. This one was a stand out in the Areo Blue.
The GPS radio lists for $1200 on the price list.

the car.
None of you people with the Aero Blue Roadster have posted any pictures. I haven't seen one yet, but I bet it looks sweet! Post some pics so we all can see!
APM28, by Feb. I'm sure you'll be itching to drive it and going to Florida will be most rewarding, especially since it'll allow you to drive it with the top down. Do you have to go over any mountains to get there?
Epyon, thanks for the pictures of your Aero Blue roadster. As I said, mine won't be deliverd until January, so it should stand out in photos with a white snow background. And I 'm sure I'll have some with palm trees, when I get it to Florida. Going to Florida from where I live, yes you do have to go over some mountains, either the Allegheny or the Appalachian, or both, depending on the route you choose.
Well, my new Roadster arrived exactly 11 weeks to the day from when I ordered it. Then one week from that, I picked it up from my dealer. So it is now sitting in my garage. The weather is so bad here in northwest Pennsylvania that I have only driven it twice since I got it. I will be leaving in two weeks to drive it to Florida, so right now am studying the manuals to understand the car and its controls, and learn to program the GPS radio. It is one sweet car. It is Areo Blue Pearl Coat with Dark /Medium Slate Grey interior, with 6 speed manual. The build number is #53318. My trip will last about 19 days, which should give me plenty of time to break the car in and form an opinion of what I think about it. I may be the oldest guy on this forum. The 28th of February will be my 73 birthday and this Roadster is my birthday present to myself. This is my first convertible, but when I was a teenager, my mother had a 1949 DeSota convertible, which I drove alot (I got it to go 100 mph) and so have always had the urge to have a convertible again. Happy motoring to you all.

Congrats. I turn 51 Feb 28th (Happy Birthday) Bought my Limited roadster with gps asp and auto stick, grea metalic, slate gray interior as birthday present for myself. Took 4 months to get, 1100 miles so far. I lve it. Do you smoke cigars? I bought the crossfire humidor fom the Chrysler gift gallery. Fits in center consul. Very nice. I also bought the all weather mats, they really save the original floor mats. A little pricy at $89.00 a set but they are made to fit and they clip down like the original mats. Have a great trip.
Robert. Thanks for the note. I do not smoke cigars. Gave up smoking years ago. But I like martinis and wine. Several famous people were born in February, including Ted Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor, both my age. And I think I will outlive them both. Happy Birthday to you.

Hey, be respectful to the coupe; I saw the picture with you in the roadster and it sure didn't look like the rose in a flower garden.
