Will do. I don't smoke either but with phones and tablets needing constant recharging, this is the most convenient place to insert a charger. There are three other locations but two are out of reach when sitting snug in the LWB's. The space is so small and shallow, nothing fits and it doesn't have a cover. Nothing is going to stay in that space if you drive the way this car should be driven.

Thanks everyone for the welcome. I know it's just another white "stripper" GT3 and I'm sure many of you are getting tired of all of the recent delivery threads but I like how you guys make it feel like it never gets old.

I think all the hoopala will settle down about the GT3 once they unveil and customers start taking delivery of the RS, or I could be wrong.

Best option would be to have both

I also did not order the Smoker's package because I am using that space for my Mute button for my radar detector. Fits in there nicely. I was concerned that if I had a lighter there it would be difficult to have wiring pulled thru.

Just a couple of things after driving her a few miles yesterday.
1. Pdls was clunky at first but after putting some miles on her I can feel the TM breaking in.
2. Easily can be a daily driver IMO. If you have the LWB's it might be a little tougher unless you're hardcore.
3. The manual dimmer rearview mirror works great. No need for auto dimmer IMO.
4. Bluetooth works very nicely when streaming Sirius from my phone and making calls. I'm just surprised on how well it works as the Bluetooth on my R8 is useless.
5. Stripper interior is just fine. Doesn't take anything away from the driving experience.
6. It's almost impossible to keep it under 5k rpm. Breakin period is going to be pretty short.
7. I have to say the front lift is convenient. I was a skeptical and just about to remove it but my dealer said keep it. It works quickly and gives you a piece of mind that I can take this car almost anywhere without having to worry if I'm going to regret it or not.
Can't wait till it gets a little warmer so I can compare it to my R8 GT.

How about driving comments? Faster than expected? Handling? PDK?
