Welcome pew to the Forum,

Congrats, it will be a nice and strong one.


Did you order the "electric" Tow Bar?

When is the delivery promised to be?

Ricracing i had the removable towbar rather than electric, not going to use it very often only to do the odd track day with my other toy. (My other toy)

Here are a few pictures!

Looking good! thanks for sharing

Deep sea blue does look richer / deeper than mystic blue IMHO.
The shaddow line and tinted windows also work well with deep sea blue. A set of 19s on there would be the icing on the cake, but I've been totally corrupted by this forum -- it looks great as it is!

Enjoy...

Looks a lot like my own car. Except for the color: mine is Carbon Black.

What does the interior look like ? I have the alu cube pure trim + black dakota leather with sport seats.

Enjoy the car !
