I mostly did that but after 500 miles I ripped it a little and boy was it all smiles. I put the 300 miles on it the day I bought it driving it from Ann Arbor to Traverse City. Getting window tint done today, so excited
Tint will really set off the red too! I've been driving it in eco mode (sacrilege I know), so it's going to be quite the event when I finally hammer down.

So happy I got a red one. Originally I wanted white but the red just started to grow on me until it was the only one I wanted. Although a circuit edition in heavy metal would have been cool too. Black was my least favorite, I even turned down a black allocation.
It accelerates quite nicely and rides very good at 100mph in Mexico. Was cruising after a pull and looked down and was like on no I'm going way too fast :LOL:

Red was top of my list as well, white I was more than happy to get too though! After owning a black car for the past two years, I swore never again haha. The car definitely wants to go and eggs you on.

I figured I should check back in here, I ended up picking mine up almost a month ago in Erie, PA. I live about an hour from Gingerman by Grand Rapids. This is supposed to be a daily for me, so I'm hoping I'm not tempted to track it or use it for my annual Tail of the Dragon trip... I might see you at Gingerman in my NC Miata when I use my GR track day.

The more I drive this car the more I can appreciate how planted it is right out of the box with fast cornering on the PS4s in the cold. With a set of 200tw (my favorite is the Yokohama Advan A052) it feels like it would so much fun on Tail of the Dragon with the only downside being that there would be minimal gear changes... I hope to not drive it hard pushing the reliability out the window, but we'll see how it goes.

I would love to ride in one or get pictures! My wife won't let me buy one on payments even if I could find one. We have a trust still waiting after 2+ years. I'm in central Montcalm county off a lake. Would love to meet up some time/one day! Especially if you like fishing!

There's going to be a few of us at Gingerman in late June for a track day if you're interested!
