Cool 4.0 RS finally arrived!
Well after many months of waiting and selling my 3.8 RS to make the upgrade my dealer called me last night to let me know my 4.0 just came off the truck. Will be picking it up Tuesday and writing the big $$ check. I only hope these babies reasonably hold their value. Loved my 3.8 so should love this a bit more. Couple of questions for you guys. I don't expect to track this but should I go for clear bra and should I consider aftermarket exhaust?

Yes to aftermarket exhaust. There are a few really great ones out there. I recommend you take your time and do the research for which one will be the best for you. I have a GMG X-pipe with no cats on my GT2, and I think it is perfect, but you will get many opinions. You can also lose some good weight with a good performance exhaust system.

BTW, congrats on your new car!!

Congratulations on your acquisition of this amazing car; I hope you enjoy the heck out of it.
I agree that you should get the clear bra and exhaust. My clear bra is X-Pel and it's great. The whole hood, except for the corners nearest the windshield, is covered and it affords great protection.
Since you said you're NOT going to track the car, may I be the first in line to buy it from you when you move on to your next car??
