just grey. I think the previous guy ordered it so the leather wheel and shift boot have the matching stitching

Is this finish on the wheels the same color as regular GT4s in Satin Aurum or is it different? Maybe it's just the wheel design but the yellow and gold doesn't seem to clash like what I've seen for normal GT4s with gold wheels and yellow PCCBs. Hard to go wrong getting the car in the "communication color" as I saw it referred to today. Congrats!

These wheels are “Satin Neodyme”

I almost didn’t take the car because I thought they would be too bright like the Satin Aurum which imo works with fewer colors.

But eventually I just was factoring the cost of new wheels. But I’m going to keep these. I’m pleasantly surprised with how much I like them

Congrats man, beautiful car, enjoy! One of the more enjoyable GTx acquisition threads in recent memory which didn't turn into some pricing / value / ADM / market timing debale

Are you going to come down to Buttonwillow to track it?

I would consider it. I’m usually lazy and just go to Laguna or Thunder hill since they are closer.

One of my favorite parts of taking delivery:




Some interesting tidbits. They suggest loctite 243 or replacing the bolts after each aero adjustment. I don’t recall the same guidance from the 981. Maybe it was there and I glossed over it. Also captured some wing settings. Also I hadn’t seen the guidance on the tire pressure bleeding before.
