    Long Island

    Massapequa Park, I am in Nassau and W. Suffolk every day, also travelling into the 5 Boros and upper NJ.

    Where are the Optimas??
    I have only seen a handful after 2500 miles.

    Bought my EX at Revolution in Lindenhurst.
    Nice people except the Finance Guy, who tried to talk me into leasing (several times) when I clearly stated I was buying. THEN, he offered a redbadge deal ("K" logo) for $395. I went online and got all the K5 parts...including hubs, not stick-ons...for under $100.

    If anyone here is into Music or plays the Guitar, I play in a band or 2 on LI and hit some of Blues Jams during the week. My g/f builds/paints/restores Guitars. I showed her all the Optima colors first, and she liked my choice of Bright Silver...but LOVED the Light Graphite avail only on the Hybrid.
    2011 K5 EX Rebadge/Debadge, Bright Sliver

    Ah another Long Islander, I actually just bought my Optima SX a little over a week ago in patchogue. I am yet to see another Optima on the road lol, the only one I've ever seen had dealer plates so I don't count that. How do you like your Optima so far?
