Congrats on the new MKC - I have Silver Sand exterior as well - (Hazelnut interior) If I understand correctly - they don't offer our color for the 2016 Model year so we probably won't see ourselves coming and going too often - Enjoy it!
She sounds like a beauty!! Welcome to the forum.My MKC was a factory order made March 5th and received on April 25, one day after my Birthday. It is silver sand external and white sand inside. Both me and my wife love it. My previous leasing car was Lexus CT and they offered me good deal to take NX. But I'd like to give a try of American car. MKC panoramic roof and fold-able mirrors made our minds. So far so good. We really like the welcome pad and ambient lighting. I didn't see any MKC on the road until yesterday driving through Tim Hortons and saw there was another white MKC 2 cars front of me in the line. I could imagine both of us should be very proud of driving MKC.
