Thanks for all the kind words everybody. Time to go drive her now!!!

Will let you know as the updates happen. TechArt sideskirts should be on within two weeks. Got to figure out the wheels and the drop as well.

Congrats on the nice ride! Also, you don't just have stainless steel exhaust, but sport exhaust, a 2400$ option . The exhaust should be a lot louder once you hit the sport button. Have fun!

Thanks for the info. Love it. Better than finding $20 in a pair of jeans I forgot about after they come out of the dryer.

In terms of getting good news that wasn't expected, the seller called me after I bought the car and told me to look under the seat as he had left a pair of brand new red front seat belts that he had bought but had never got around to putting on. He said enjoy. Love it.

Red seat belts would look wonderful in that car.

I suggest you purchase a lottery ticket given your winning streak.

Vaguely heard this a few times but not really sure what this means. It is a output of history of how high someone has revved the engine before, and for how long right?

Mind explaining what range 1 is vs range 6? And wha the number after the range, is that 168 seconds?

Those ranges are amazing. It was barely ever really driven by the previous owner. Congrats! You should be proud, you did a LOT of research and it paid off!

Thanks alot. I followed your search and look at your beauty of a payoff. Even better after the incredible detail you did on it (saw the before and after in the Detailing forum).

TechArt sideskirts going on in about two weeks.
