How old is this car? If you look at the 4 gague cluster, looks like the tourque meter is still in there in the upper left hand corner. I thought this was out replaced with something else?

Orders can't be entered until 10/13 so for now you are just a name on a list. Hopefully you are high enough up on that list to be in their first allocation.

I'm sure I'm pretty high up on the list, my guess would be third.

Good eye on the Torque Gauge

ljustin293 · 09-26-2008, 06:23 PM

I noticed the torque gauge too, not sure this means its what we will get...

Ok, a few things Scott and others mentioned at Indy last weekend when talking about this car.........

It was built in Jan or Feb.........hence the leftover torque gauge. It won't be on the production cars. It was replaced by the trans cooler on cars such equipped. Also, all of the exhaust notes we have been hearing in the vids, they aren't production either. These cars were built prior to the final decisions on that. The sounds we heard in the presentation in the afternoon are the correct ones. Unfortunately, a lot of people had to leave to go take care of their cars when the freak passing storm come up. Anyway, factory stripes will only be white or cyber gray. The other colors that have yet to me mentioned will be dealer installed. You can also get the hockey stripes as well.

I'm thinking this was a pre-pre order event using the reference guide and making a list of options they'll input on the 13th. If I were you, I'd go back down to the dealer that Monday and see what the REAL options are. Just so you get the car you want. I've been on my dealers' list since August 11, 2006. Yes, 2006. I'm number 1 and we've had similar discussions about what I wanted, but until they can actually put it in, all we have is a write-up of what I want.......sounds like the same thing here.

Congrats on getting yours in line though. That's the first step.

Thanks for the info. I was planning on going back to the dealership when they got more info on it.

I didn't get but one back seat picture

Scooter · 09-26-2008, 07:07 PM

GREAT pictures, thanks!!! That is the color I want too.

franknbeans · 09-26-2008, 07:16 PM

thanks a lot for the pictures. . . I liked the detailed ones you took, this often gets over looked.

bballr4567 · 09-26-2008, 07:17 PM

Ok so does anybody know how the seats will fold forward? Will you have to use the power adjustments or is going to be some type of memory thing with a quick switch on the seat?
