Love red on black, looks awesome! Like the red gauges as well. Did you order this car or was it on the lot?

Thanks for the kind words all! I will try get some better photos Sunday. The car was on the lot! It was one of 3-4 that had some real heart and soul put into it when the dealer spec'd it out imo.

Most others I saw on lots were blk/blk or white/blk or blk/red or white/red and in some cases variations of grey or silver. Very few cars had deviated stitching, colored dials, seatbelts different color and lower spoiler, rockers, rear lwr valance painted to body.

Funny thing was that my first choice was a blk/blk car and there were a ton out there. Then I said to my self I would also like a white exterior. So for the longest time I set up my search on Cars.com to only blk or wht exterior.

This dealer had a nice blk with tan interior with blk wheels and as I got on their website I saw the red and quickly called and said "Is the red car still available?"

If I had ordered the car myself, I can't think of much if any I would have done different, except maybe made the 12 O clock marker on steering wheel in red in stead of black but that can be modded pretty easily.

Thanks again!

Some better photos

Camera was dead on battery so still have to resort to phone pics but at least better light.

Thanks everyone! Really enjoying her. Can't wait to go to the drag strip next Friday night to see how lauch control works. It has been over 2 years since I have been to the strip since I pretty much gave up trying to launch a 6 speed all wheel drive car and got more interested in road course fun.

Interested to see how she does.
