Hmm...I'm hearing reports that there is a yellow SS/RS and a silver LS, both with unfinished interiors. Anyone know for sure?

Not sure that the car will be opened -- it depends on which unit is sent - the car MUST have a 'finished' interior - otherwise, we can't leave it opened.

(and YES - we know Texas is our largest market.....)
Is Austin a "nationally supported show?" I think it has been moved to April, used to be in the Fall.

That is partly correct. There is a yellow SS (not the RS, however) and a silver LS. Yes, both are not available to sit in for whatever reason. I will post a new thread shortly with a whole bunch of pictures that I took.

The yellow is not the RS but it does have the halo lights.

OK.....I'm confused. I've seen pictures of the cars now and

1) Halo headlights....check
2) Body colored roof ditch molding....check
3) Darker tail lights....check
4) Midnight silver (although it's a little hard to tell) wheels....check
5) Red SS badging....check

How is this not an RS?

Maybe they just misbadged it but typically any vehicle with the RS trim package attached has RS badging and not the SS if I recall correctly. I am prone to miss things, however.

OK..that explained it. That's true of the V6, but the SS gets a red badge instead of a silver one.

OK....I'm there now, or will be. Hadn't decided if I was going or not. The last time I went was Jan. 06 and that was for one reason only (and happened to be painted Victory Red).

I did a search for some a few days ago and found a few, I can't remember off the top of my head where, though. I'll put a few up when I go, but that won't be until Friday.

So, it will be open through the close of the show? That kind of sucks for those that went the first day. I am fortunate in the fact that I have a friend who wants to go so I will be going back, but it still sucks for those that have already gone. When I was there the first day the show was open, although the car was drawing a lot of attention, a lot of people were P.O.ed that they couldn't sit in it. Oh well. That's life I suppose.

O.K., here are some pics. If yall are looking for a specific shot of the color or area of the car, let me know and I will check what pictures I have. If I don't already have it, I will be sure to take a picture when I go back with my friend.
