I wish he did. He hadn't come out as a broker/consultant for hire yet, not officially at least. I'm happy with the car but I paid top retail dollars to a dealer.

Sure, I'd prefer a black interior, but the midnight blue exterior is just brilliant.

Man, that's a nice one!
Need to straighten out those exhaust tips.

Yeah...both tips look offset in kinda a weird way. Aftermarket exhaust perhaps or just goofiness and lack of attention to detail.

Maybe if it had regular leather vs. supple I could get into the light gray, but I'm still picturing this car with an all black gut. That would be special!

IMO it's a nice feature. I really like mine for the look, the added downforce, and that it's stationary so you don't have to deal with the hydraulics failing.

YES! I think not having to deal wit the Hydraulics is a huge plus.

I wasn't sure how I like how it looked before... but it's growing on me.

I see it has Coco mats, I just put a set in my TT. The retro look is a nice temporary change up IMO.

It definitely has some nice touches. I like the belts and the pedal set,

Gerald- You are about to convince me to get a set of coco mats for my car. Won't make it a Prestige Thread car, but maybe add a little shred of class to it.

It's a decent change to the look. I'll drive the TT Saturday with them in it.
