Best of luck with it. Looks great.

You really don't want to coat the paint with anything for at least a month or so, assuming it was about a month old when you got it.

'Cocaine White' might get a little powdery, you know.

Congrats,

lets see some more pics.(only showing one interior shot)

It's like Christmas in March, right?

The book says no more than 4200 for 2K miles, It's up to you good luck.

By the time you get the car, the paint is about 2 month old. You can apply wax. Not sure if the dealer applied wax when they prepped it before your pickup. Follow the break in by varying the engine speed. Don't rev it when cold. Your engine will last longer and be smoother.

In sport mode, in 1st and 2nd ,it is tough to stay below 4200 because it happens so fast.
What did you gold plate to get the price to $105K ?
