Default There must be a run on GTS...

I'm away on vacation, but my RS just arrived! Beyond excited...
Here are the initial unwrapping pics from my SA








This is the one vacation where I won't mind when it's over - a nice welcome home present!

Nice. One of the first CXX side vents I've seen, first on GT Silver. Congrats!

Double wrap those side vents. They take a beating from all the rocks you kick up.

Thanks for the heads up - I don't recall having that issue with my TT. Unique to the RS because of the stickier tires, I assume?

Whole thing is getting wrapped this week so I won't worry about the chips. I'll post pics of the inside when I get them - some CXX there as well. 0-60, it does seem close to your build. Really enjoyed your photos, they helped feed my lust while waiting for mine!

Yeah I hear rocks clanging all over the car all the time...more than any other car I've owned.

That looks fantastic! I wasn't sure how a painted engine cover would look, but dare-I-say it gives the car a cleaner overall look.
