Pretty mean looking V12V. I know you like the yellow calipers but the all black effect is really striking.

Thanks Henry,
The car is Amazing! It actually feels smoother and lighter than my S. I figure I could always put black ones back on.
Maybe one side yellow one black? Ha just kidding. 😀😀😀

That's a good call - It's a little too much black and the yellow will make it pop.

Here's my car with Yellow Calipers.

Cant wait to get mine. I feel alittle like Darth Vader right now.
Is there any break in period/miles on this v12?
I remember my m6 had 1k breakin period.

Thanks - Hope that helped give you a visual.

I'm a strong believer in taking it easy for the first 1000k.
Enjoy the car!

Manual says go easy for the first 1k miles. That's what I'm doing.
