Default just picked up my new RSA!

and drove it back to NY, from boston...what bloody fun!

fitted with the rs suspension, so ride is VERY rigid, shall we say..

not crazy about the wheels-any recco's? thinking about going back to stock-

also, it has an alpine 7980 stereo fitted-does anyone know if i can get an ipod adaptor fitted?

VERY EXCITED!

also, not quite sure why the image is coming in upside down..sorry for any neck injuries...

Congratulations! What are your plans for the car? Will you be keeping it as is or do you have any planned mods? And how will you be using the car? Street, drivers ed, racing, concours, all of the above?

Not only is it upside down but you seem to have bought a right hand drive zq model! Very rare, hold on to that one

Looking very nice indeed. And nothing like that first drive back.

Awesome car, love the wheels, and amazing ground effects.


PS. If you want to change the wheels for something more "Porsche" I would suggest a nice new set of Fuchs retro in 17" or 18", like the ones on the Singer.

thanks! a driving car, for sure..had it in new york traffic in the rain this morning!

....here's a question, re wheels-i was thinking of getting the original cup one's, even though i'm not crazy about them...i always feel as though it's better to have cars look as stock as possible...any thoughts?

also, it currently has a b&b exhaust, but it sounds a bit boomy...any suggestions?

thanks for all the congrats!

Exhaust, is it a full system from the heads?

If you like stock looking rims but not a fan of Cups, how about - RH Speedlines? Here's a pic of mine on heavier Veloce Speedlines...
