New Overseas Delivery vehicles on US dealer lots?
I recently purchased a new S60 from a local dealer and the spec page in the window (which usually lists features, price, fuel economy, etc.), there was just a big "OSD". I asked the dealer what that meant and he told me that the car had come via the overseas delivery program and that the GM would supplement the regular inventory in this way.
I'd never heard about that before, and the cars all seemed to be unusual color combos or colors not typically available in the US. Mine was black/beechwood, another had bright red exterior while a third was electric blue. The car only had 22 miles on it, but I'm curious if that's a common practice or if the sales guy was covering for something. Would love any thoughts... Thanks.

BTW, I ordered a 2013 S60 T5 FWD in July of last year and had it 9 weeks later. This was not OSD. I'm lovin' the car. Is yours a 2014? T5 or T6? What are your initial impressions?
