Default Where In The World is Sam Pelligrino?
Great, now where are the photos?!
All kidding aside, congratulations on the GT3 and keep us updated on your adventure!

I initially spec'd the touring pack (and this is *strictly just my opinion*) but I am thanking my lucky stars I decided to go for the wing...it makes the car IMO. I bet touring will be rarer, maybe resale higher, and I couldn't care less but of course YMMV and different strokes for different folks

LOL I feel honored by this thread, I am just a lowly peasant

Right now I am enjoying an ice cold beer in the South of France, a place called Eze to be exact

I keep checking on the car (parked in front of the hotel) every 3 hours, and Rennlist from time to time in between relaxing and enjoying a good book when not on the road

I will do a full recap for anyone interested after the trip is over but here are a couple teaser shots (picture order might come out jumbled)

Maybe it is just stuck on with double sided tape? I know many do that over there prior to shipping back to the states.

Congrats!! Great spec, enjoy this amazing road trip!

Too bad I'm currently abroad, Eze is like 20min from my place, would have brought the GT3 to share a few miles. (Nice book btw )

Oh my goodness. Lucky you! What a perfect time to take delivery.

We absolutely love that part of France/Italy.

Please post more pics of your journey!

There's no black bracket behind the plate. Looks like just stuck on.

ED front plates are not drilled.

Thanks for the pics. Helps to get by during this cold and snowy April.

Epic thread and Post Perimeter and Sam! Finally something other than an "ADM" discussion.

This! At one point I saw a pic of some driving scenery and showed it to my coworker and we both said "damn" in unison and then got upset that we are currently in freezing NYC. Lol
Living the dream man!
