No those were black stripes. I got to see (but not photograph) the final product and they are definitely matte. They look completely different when applied.

Yea, I am glad I didn't pre-order before actually seeing the car for that reason...pictures don't do any of the colors justice I would bet.

Did they have it out on the showroom floor yet? When I left they had just finished the stripes.

markssylver · 04-23-2009, 08:57 PM

when i got there it was in the middle of the showroom floor with caution tape around it they did move it though to let me get inside the car to see how well i fit in it and i had plenty of room im 6 4 270 lbs and to see the car in person for the first time it was the 6m as i ordered and also wanted to make sure i could operate the clutch without my knees being all up in the dash

Yea that is the 21 inch tires and the rally stripes driving it up that high I think...the IOM matching seats might add to that as well but not sure.

Ask for Mike Martinez (Sales Rep) or Robert Kramer (Sales Manager)

I walked in after trading emails with Mike for a while and Robert wound up helping me. Let me sit in the IOM while they were working on it and generally made me feel right at home. No pressure, no bulls**t, just a great conversation. They want customers for life not sales.

That's great, thanks for shairing your story and congrats on your order.

Like the look of the 21" wheels, but not willing to beat my back to death with 1" sidewalls anymore. Plus, with the ground effects package, I think the RS wheels (Midnight Silver?) will look AWESOME!

SilverTurtle · 04-24-2009, 11:55 AM

so, what happens to the stock wheels? if they go on eBay, I might have to pick up a set for... reference purposes... yeah, thats it
