I know exactly what you mean. I am 400km away from:
Release the Hounds!
Oh what painful joy.

P.S. Your car looks fantastic.👍

She’s home! Going straight to PPF then I’ll be away for a few days so won’t be coming with me until next week at some point. The color is stunning in person - I’ll try to get better pics!

Congrats!

I’m also going away precisely when my car is coming in. Vessel arrives in 7 hours and I will be out of town for a week. I expect the car to arrive at the dealer Thursday or Friday latest because recently cars have been released by the Jacksonville port same day or next day of vessel arrival.

My SA, Carlos, just forwarded me a pic of your car. I guess you got this dealer's first allocation while I got the second. Mine in Shark Blue won't be here for another few months. Congrats and enjoy!

Data point for folks who are on a similar timeline as me: My start of production date was supposed to be two days ago, on 4/22. There has been no update on my build since then, though. I've noted some folks on here say there was a week or so of silence past their anticipated start dates before they got notifications of their cars actually going into production, so I hope that's the case for me as well.

Looks amazing. Really nice configuration, especially the silver wheel and yellow calipers...nice pop of color.
Glad to hear about he differences you are experiencing vs regular Spyder. I was wondering if the upgrade was worth it. Seems like it is. Hard to believe one could improve on the Spyder too much, but seems they have. Please drive the hell out of it. Never sell!
