They really nailed the whole exhaust note...did your neighbor get the R model?

The dealership placed the order today and sent me a confirmation build sheet...looks exactly what I ordered...so we're good to go. Now we just wait for the factory to pull the order, assign it a VIN number and build the car.

Stopping at the dealer next Friday on the way back from SF to meet both the sales lady and sales manager and to hopefully finally test drive one at that point...

This is very close to what my car will look like except for different wheels and no glass roof:

Thanks man...here's the 19" wheels I ordered with the car, look like a BBS design:


Should look screaming because the ones in the picture with the exposed hardware don't do it for me.
