Hi,

Have been lurking around on this board for a few days now. Thought I'd introduce myself. My name is Saurabh and I am from Chicago. Don't own the car yet - it is currently being built with an estimated delivery of December / January. Can't hardly wait

Feels like a great community with loads of helpful information. Look forward to being a part of it

Thank you all for the warm welcome

The car will be a 2013 V8V ASM2 in rosso corsa red, obsidian black interior with red coarse stitching.

Options:
RED BRAKE CALIPERS
BLACK VANED FRONT GRILLE
BLACK MESHES (HOOD AND SIDE STRAKE AREA)
BLACK TEXTURED TAILPIPE FINISHER
CLEAR TAIL LIGHTS
V SPOKE WHEELS WITH GRAPHITE FINISH
FRONT PARK SENSORS
GLASS SWITCH PACK
PIANO BLACK INTERIOR TRIM PACK [This is pending confirmation if AM would do it for the non-S version or not]
REVERSING CAMERA
B & O BEOSOUND AUDIO SYSTEM
HEATED SEATS
MEMORY SEATS
RED COARSE STITCHING ON THE STEERING WHEEL
PADDLE SHIFTER LEATHER COLOR - SPICY RED
METAL SEAT ADJUSTER BUTTONS

Planned minor mods:
Swap out the side strakes, rear lamp infills and side view mirrors with CF alternatives
Swap out the sill plaques with personalized ones from Tony Hall [those are the only ones I know of]
Swap out the interior lamps with LEDs

That's pretty much it (for now )

Hi Saurabh,

I am the Aston Martin Owners Club Midwest Area Rep. I live in Lincoln Park in Chicago. Please think about joining the AMOC. There are a number of active members in the area with cars ranging from a 1953 DB2 through a 2012 V12 Vantage. We have events every month (except December). Send me an email at matsonht@yahoo.com for more information.

All the best,

Thanks Henry! I have emailed you requesting more information.

I'm downtown, so not far from Lincoln Park at all. Nice car - It's great to see that there is at least one more rosso corsa AM out there
