Ordered my new Ford Edge Sport in White Platinum last Saturday. Now I just have to wait.

Looks good! I like the black grill. So, this is not the actual one you're getting, just one on the lot I assume. For being a 'Sport' does it have different springs, struts, gear ratio... than the non-Sport models?

Congrats. I love the Edge and have a silver 09 as my daily driver. The AWD works awesome! Drove an Edge Sport owned by a co-worker once and like it too.

Thanks all. This is the car I waited to buy after college. Took a couple years but time is here. That is just photo I found online. I opted for FWD since I am in AZ and my need for AWD would be very minimal if at all. It has the same 3.7L V6 in the 2011 Mustang. 305HP. All options except AWD. I was not going to get the vista roof but ended up throwing it in. I managed X-Plan through my brother and will be getting the $2500 rebates as well as $750 coupon Ford was nice enough to send me.

I drove a blue one and man is it quiet inside. It is plenty fast for a CUV and has a lot more room than my current car. I can now drive when friends want to go somewhere.

Can't wait.
