My Guards Red / Luxor C2 MT finally had the decency to show up!

I ordered mid-October and it took just over 3 months to get here, having taken delivery on Saturday afternoon. I'm totally thrilled that the weather turned out absolutely perfect for the first days of ownership, particularly for it for being January.

Having spent the past months lurking on the forums, I of course had time to order the clear side markers and installed them yesterday as well. My wife commented "OK, that does look better!" after having given me grief like I was some kind of fool for ordering them and having them sitting on my desk.

Hit 128 miles today (total), which for essentially 2 days on the back roads here (and with plans each evening that precluded driving then) is pretty decent for me. Totally love the car, now I need to work through some of the manuals.

OK, since it wouldn't let me post more than 5 pics before... Front quarter with clear side markers, and out for a drive today. My daughter took the second shot - I like it! Fun roads even if the speed limits are too low.

Congrats! She is a beauty. Love the red. The clear side markers look great as well. Fantastic the weather head out for you. I can just imagine how frustrating it would have been to have your car stuck in the garage with it snowing outside right as you finally got it!!

I'm confused about the side markers. I saw a couple of TTs this weekend that had clear side markers, but the owners had not installed them. It's possible the previous owners did. Do some models come with clear side markers in the U.S.? I have speed yellow and I can't decide if it would look better with clear markers.
