I believe these are EU standard specifications. Note Club Sport package. Any insight on (1) USA standard specifications and (2) USA options?

Good question.

Better question might be what kind of hook will they offer for the car, and there will be a hook right?

But back to your question about the FAL, I could see PAG not offering it for this. Only really useful and handy as a daily mule, and not as a track bitch, which this RS is intended to be.

Plus, if the FAL is an option, I can only imagine the type of grief people are going to get if they spec it ... "you poser, it's so heavy!" and "so stupid, it's going to break in a couple of days" or "you don't need a lift, move to Nebraska where it's flat everywhere"

Will be interesting .......my dealer told me expect mid 180's. He's always been solid and my company buys a lot of cars from his dealer. No incentive not to be truthful.
