SWEET!!!!! I saw a black one at the dealership here in Orlando. Looks amazing. I'm curious as to the experience of the manual top. Is it a pain in the **** to put up/down? Does it seal out the weather ok? Would love to see some pix/video of that prosess. Congrates,

David

Lovely!

Punched most of the options buttons it appears; you won't pass yourself in that configuration very often.

Congrats.

That looks hot!

Those white wheels would scare me a bit but with the PCCB's it may not be too bad. Curious how much dust is produced with them.

Enjoy in good health!

I have about 150 miles on the car now and the wheels are still relatively clean... but there is some dust, not to bad though. The PCCB's are great, but I always find after a few hundred miles the brake dust gets a little less.

jpcourt,

As a fellow CT taxpayer, I'm always available to test drive your car to ensure it's worth the tax payments

It's beautiful btw!

Just need to paint those wheels black.
