And here it is ready for me!!!

carbon fibre mirror



7 speed multi-clutch transmission with paddle shifters



red brake calipers





special seats with red stitching and Affalterbach headrest





Affalterbach shift knob, plaque, and carbon fiber trim

I almost bought this edition in March, saw the 2012 interior and upgrades, then it wasnt easy... deposit and the longest few months later... Couldnt be more blown away at how nice the 2012 interior really is.

Congrats on the special edition, it should have great resale value!

Congratulations. However, I believe you don't have the 7 speed MCT transmission. That only comes with the facelifted cars starting with 2012 model year. You have the 7 speed Speedshift Plus automatic transmission.

just saw the comments about the interior..i looked at the 2012 but i actually like the flip up screen better than the integrated one..dunno, i just preferred to get a special edition than a 2012.

congratulations on your new ride. It really is a head turner... Was it new when you got it or is it a demo/lease return? How many miles on the beast? Don't forget to change diff oil if it is not already done (recommanded at 2500 km)...

Enjoy your new sound system!

Nice car OP... as I can see, you bought your car in TO & drove it all the way to MTL... it must have been a fun drive for sure? Do you mind sharing the price tag on it?

BTW, is it your friend Lambo? It looks like you followed him from TO all the way to MTL... hahaha!

I approve that video!

That video is so funny!

By any chance are you planning on wrapping it with a clear bra? That matte paint is tough to keep up just in terms of cleaning but also if it gets damage by even something as little as rock chips, you'll be to say the least. So I would suggest protecting at least the front and back if not the whole car.

Man, you sure are a proud owner. And that's a great thing. A big congratulations on your purchase. You picked a beautiful car. I hope you enjoy it.

The only thing that kinda sucks about having such a nice car is the constant stress of worrying about wear and tear. It really bothers me. OP, how do you feel about it?
