Congratulations majorloser! I notice you too held out for the Luxe Elite package - kudos to you for being willing to wait to get everything you wanted. I don't even have to see pictures of your new car to know it's just gorgeous.
Did you commit to a price/lease contract in Dec? Or did you get to negotiate the final details when it came in?

I have a question for you... Can you tell me what the Brand and Part Number is, of the Cargo Area Protector you got ?

| Welcome to the Coconut Creek Infiniti EX35 club! Did they send you the huge box of chocolates yet? I was impressed with the chocolate picture frame with the edible 'photo' of an EX35. And you're going to like the EX35 even more! Congrats. |
They just called me today to ask where to send the basket to my wife. Once they said the word "chocolate" I told them to just send it to me

I just took delivery of my EX last Thu (Apr 24/08), Dark Currant with the Tech Package (in Canada, this includes Journey+Premium+Nav) ... LOVE IT!!!
One thing I'll say though - the sales people don't do a very good job of telling you what accessories are available. If I'd known that a cargo protector and organizer existed for my vehicle, I would have tried to wrap them into the purchase price.
BTW, a "shout out" to all you canucks ... I'm in Ottawa!
Cheers,
David

The cargo tray looks really slick ... reminds me of the one that came with our Subaru. Do you also have the cargo organizer ... trying to imagine how it fits together with the tray and whether it's like the one in the Nissan Rogue.
Also wondering about the two black pouches on the wheel wells (one seems to be a first aid kit and the other?)
Thanks,
David

I like that Cargo Mat, too. I'm gonna order one as well !
Was it available in that color only, or could I get it in Black, I wonder ?
There appears to be 2 little Holes in the middle of that Cargo Mat. What's that all about ? Finger Holes ? Drain Holes ?
The Carpet Floor Mats look good too. Our Dealer gave us both Carpet and Rubber... Carpet for Summer, Rubber for Winter.
I too, am also wondering about those Black Packages in the Back. What are they ?

Water-resistant heavy-duty protection
Includes cut-outs for tie-down rings mounted in cargo floor
Keeps cargo area clean and helps protect it from scratches and damage
What are these Tie Down Rings mounted in Cargo Floor all about ?
Mine doesn't have them in the Floor... but instead, they are on the Side Corners only !

Congrats David! I also have the Dark Currant and absolutely love it. To think I was so undecided before I saw it in person with the Chestnut interior. I came very close to ordering a Scarlet Silver. And now I love the Dark Currant more and more each day (especially on sunny days that bring out all the brilliant undertones). It is a really beautiful color. Will you be posting any pics soon?

The small bag on the left is a first aid kit. The large bag on the right contains all of the O&M manuals. It's a big stack of manuals for all of the electronics and features.

Yes, the Dark Currant is growing on me day by day. At first I thought it was different, then I grew to like it, and now I think it's fantastically unique!
In Canada, the exterior colour and the model you choose (Luxury, Journey, Premium or Custom Leather), practically dictates the interior colour, as follows:

| Ha ha ... that was my second choice for exterior colour! |
I'm glad we waited to get EXACTLY what we wanted. The tidewater is an awesome color. It changes based on lighting. In the pictures it appears to have a green hue. In the sunlight it appears blue. And at certain angles it has a hint of grey.

It's a Canon Power Shot S3-IS with the wide angle adapter lens.

| Thanks majorloser! I'm in the market for an upgrade from point & shoot to a 'prosumer'-type & actually have been looking at that one or the s5. Your pictures were so nice, so I just thought I'd check - although I bet the quality of light over there on the space coast also has a little bit to do with the quality of your snaps. ;-) |
It was actually cloudy and hazy that afternoon. There's been a lot of controlled burn fires for the past couple weeks. Nothing like the smell of burning swamp
