Hi People

The car is awesome and great handover by MB Brisbane.

It's a

Diamond White, PP with 19" Black Wheels (yes with Yoko Tyres), Keyless & Black Leather.

No, I can't keep it under 4,500 RPM !!!!

Full report later. I'll post a few iPhone shots now and gets some better ones later.

Giddy Up

Love the stormtrooper color scheme. If you don't want to wait for the breakin period to fully enjoy the car, there's always the dyno-breakin option.

Yes they had a cover over the car and my daughter (9Y) pulled it off.

Thanks to all my Aussie mates everywhere else for the Congrates.

Good choice with the black leather. Looks better than the red 2 tone. Do you get to keep that black sheet??

Hi Pickles,

I don't really know what boat it arrived in, but the car was going to be delivered to my dealer on 29th dec, so I think it must be on the same boat. However the dealer felt that it was so close to the end of the year and decided to get it delivered in Jan so that the compliance plate is 2012 even though it would not matter esp. With this new model

Thanks Mate, No didn't get to keep the black cover


Just gave here a quick wash and I can tell you the black wheels hide the brake dust very well.

Full detail and wax next week.

Hey Perry, Have you worked out the tint yet?. Think a saw somewhere 3M black tint 35%. Where did you get the wheel brush that Marty ( Pickles) recomended... Carcarproducts?

Cheers

Marty
