Default Less than 48 hours to go!!!

WooT! Less than 48 hours to go before I get my Caliber. I'd like to thank everone here. I've been on these forums from time to time reading everyones messages and looking at everyones pictures. If I have any problems, I know what to look for and if the dealership gives me any hassle, I'll point them to these forums.

Congrats! Is this a European version? The reason I ask is because it says Dodge above their logo and I haven't seen any US/Canadian Calibers that say Dodge above the logo, only the Euro ones. If its not a Euro one, then maybe Dodge just started doing that on all Calibers? Also, it looks like an SXT Sport? I see it has a colored grille instead of a chrome one which let me to think its an SXT Sport.

What options are on it?

Congrats again!

Canadian Dodge Calibers (I have SXT) have the name Dodge above the logo.

It's Canadian like bigtsr said.

I've had it now for almost 2 months and I love it... Gas milage is starting to get better, I got about 300km's on the first tank, I am now around 450km's with 1800km total.

My Options?

SXT Sport, 2.0L w/ CVT, Security Group, Driver Convenience Group, Heated Front Seats, Speed Control, Music Gate, 6-Disc MP3 Radio, 17" Wheels, Blue Inserts, Fog Lamps...

Wife and I absolutly love it... I am still not used to taking off on wet pavement, it does not take much gas to make the tires spin.

Wanted the upgraded Stereo since I could care less about a jack to plug in an MP3 player, if I ever wanted to use our MP3 player in the car, I will purchase a FM Transmitter for it. For now 6 MP3 CD's are doing the job nicely. Besides, you can't control an MP3 player with the steering wheel controls! :P
The RDS feature of the radio is cool and did not know it existed before I got my Caliber!
Music Gate sound system is awesome! Have not had the opportunity to use the lift gate speakers while sitting outside yet, but will do so in the spring/summer.
Experienced the Anti-Lock brakes for the first time the other day... Thought the front end was falling apart until I remembered I had Anti-Lock brakes.

My only complaint is everything slides around... I use the left cubby hole for coffee change, money flies out of there like you would not believe. The back seat is not safe for anything not tied down... I had a computer lying on it's side on the back seat... the first stop light I came to, it slid forward and fell to the floor with the metal case scratching the plastic interior. Computer was ok, but I now strap stuff down.

One very happy Caliber owner!
