I'm finally gonna pull the trigger and get my wifes C-HR. She doesn't even know. I'm gonna surprise her next week. It's still on the truck. Already got the paperwork on it with the VIN number and all the options. It's a silver Premium.
I'm excited because I can't wait to see the look on her face.

A fantastic choice, I'm sure she'll be ecstatic. What's she driving now? I'm assuming that its quite the upgrade for her.

Good luck! My wife did the reverse on me and surprised me with my CHR.

Maybe the dealership can throw in one of those large bows they put on cars!

Maybe. I may ask them.

2008 Ford Edge AWD. To the both of us, it’s an upgrade.

Update;
As of Friday afternoon, it was in Chicago waiting to go an a truck. I’m hoping that it’ll be here Tuesday.

If it's a fresh delivery (still wrapped) I'd personally ask the dealer to NOT wash it..... have her unwrap the car herself!

+ opening up a wrapping
+ dealer washer people not scratching it

Hmmm......I just may do that.

New update. It should be here between the 5th and the 9th.

Well, the wheels I bought for the car are here, but the car isn't. NOW it's in Princeton waiting for a final inspection.
****!!!

Hide the wheels somehow! Maybe the dealership can throw in one of those large car bows because of the late delivery.

Couldn't. I had to fess up to what I was doing. She's excited now though.

Lol awe well that's a bummer. But I'm sure she still appreciated the attempt. So did you get an aftermarket summer set?

Yep. Some 18" Katana KR17s in Hyper Black. Gonna put a 245/45-18 tire on 'em because I also want to put a wider tire on the car.

Just looked up those rims, that's going to look awesome. Have you guys taken delivery yet? Look forward to seeing it with those fancy shoes.

We FINALLY got it saturday, on St. Patrick's day of all days.
She loves it!!!
I've been driving it a little to come up with my own opinion of it. I'll post in another thread what my thoughts are.
So here it is!
I call her Consuela.
And as you can see, I've already shaved the emblems off of her. She gets her windows tinted Friday.
