It's finally HERE!
Over four months of waiting, and it's finally here!
Impressions? WOW! SO much car for the money. Just oozes sophistcation, engineering, and styling.
Down side? The back up camera is working sporatically. Definitely has put a slight tarnish on day 1, but I know it'll be resolved.
I hooked up the bluetooth adapter, and after much experimentation, got it to work fine with my Samsung i730 phone.
So much to play with, so many places to drive! But now I have to go out of town (flight!). :cry:
Anyway, as no post like this is worthwhile without pictures, here you go. I'll take plenty more pictures in better lighting, and when I put the 20" rims on!
Hope you enjoy the pics!

...and The Wheels Are On!
Well, I finally got wheels on the car.
Because I know you'll ask:
D'Vinci Blade II wheels: 20x8.5 front, 20x10 back
Pirelli P Zero Rossi tires: 255/35ZR20 front, 285/30ZR20 rear
I didn't take these pictures-- they were taking by the wheel shop for their website at www.superbuytires.com. They treated me very well, and spent hours finding the right wheels for the car. I'd recommend them without hesitation.
I don't think the ride has suffered at all with these wheels. Maybe a little bit of the sponginess has lessened a tad... A TAD. However, this beast can now corner so much better! I'm very happy with both the looks and handling.
I'll take better pictures soon for you to get an even better idea.
What do you think?
