Sorry for the delay in responding. I went to KY to go riding and as I'm pulling out of the driveway, I get a text from my salesman...

Looks like Santa came early....











Tomorrow I will pick it up and drop it off Tuesday for the clear bra and take the wheels off to get powdercoated.

So, you've seen as much of the car as I have. I'll take pics once I get it in my hands.

Very awesome car! From the looks of the number of buttons on the console, it is "fully" optioned. Looking forward to more pictures and your reactions. Let the Permagrin commence!

July 18th. A ship came to the port I was leaving from on July 20th but apparently didn't make it so it sat there till the 31st.

Took 11 days to get to the US and less than a week to get to the dealership.

Thanks, he didn't send me any pics with the top down so I could see the red roll bar.

Soon enough...lol.

Thanks bud, it has a few options... I didn't get the vector and another option but got most everything else.

Now, just gotta wait until I can get it lowered.

I posted a copy of the build sheet but realized it was one of the first spec sheets... it was shy by 6K worth of options... I'll dig up a copy.


Out of all the options, the coolest one by far will be the sport exhaust...

The company I use is extremely busy but he knows I've been waiting (he's had the special order color sitting in his office for over a month now...lol)

Anyway, I imagine I should get them back by Thursday of this coming week.
