Again, thank you! I'll update a thread once the race wheels are put on and I get the front lowered. I have MPSS's on the way as well. While the wheels really do look better in person, it is just too busy for my tastes. I'll be swapping those out for the 017's and then have the monoblocks set aside for track.

Yeah man, it wasn't horrible but the thing is with these water-based clears, they really are susceptible to marking up. If you don't constantly change out your cloth, you're going to have visible marks. I generally go through 15-20 micro fiber towels in the polish/wax stage and only use t-shirts to wipe it away. Then I hit it with a soft buffer to bring out the deep shine. It came out really nice. Funny part is I know this process will disappear once it hits the track. The paint is just going to be victimized. But until then....!

Three pedals are nice...

the "real man" part....

I mean, you're welcome to your opinion, you just kinda alienate 60% of the members here is all. Just sayin.

Nice car though - have fun.

hahaha. Come on man, really? Alienated? That's a bit strong, don't you think? I like to think this crowd is secure enough to handle some light-hearted fun. Thanks for the compliment. It is a very nice ride.

It could be worse that spending time in the Caribbean.

After waiting 8 months for the 1st 5th Gens I was in Bum Fk Africa when mine delivered.
They texted me pictures coming off the delivery truck.
Then when I got home it was Saturday night and the dealer was closed on Sunday...

Probably right, but based on some of the threads and posts i've seen...there are people who really believe it.

Okay, first...Sending you drool pics of your own ride is just evil. A dealer that closes on Sunday??? That has to be bible-belt country. I come to Jesus every time I mash my foot on the throttle. My car IS church.

Yeah, but this is auto vs manual discussions, not Ford Vs Chevy. Everybody knows I'm going to get my ass handed to me on the track by some dude in an A10. At least I won't be so inclined to take a nap at the wheel!

Heck they are all closed on Sunday around here. I always thought that was strange. Weekends are car selling days.

You also don't have to contend with ADM in your neck of the woods. I've never seen a California stealership closed on Sunday. Greed is our language over here. Long live the Alamo.
