Default Got an RS today!

Well, patience pays! I received a call at 10:30 this morning from a salesman at Hennessy Porsche. He informed me that a new RS was made available during his morning sales meeting today and was being offered to local buyers @ MSRP. I told him it was sold and I was in the showroom 30 minutes later with my deposit (and two very excited teenage sons)!

Its a fairly loaded build (leather, lift, sport chromo, PCCBs, LEDs) and has a few interesting CXX options. The car is white with Mexico blue wheels, Olympic blue motorsports graphics and blue illuminated CF door sills. I assume Olympic blue is a close match to Mexico blue. It is scheduled to arrive on or around 2/17. I will share pictures when is comes in.

It was explained to me that as an Exclusive Dealer Hennessey spec'd a couple of cars like this to demonstrate CXX possibilities. I know they did a red one too. Now whether a customer backed out on this one I do not know.
