I think they threw white paint for free because it looked bad in primer, and also ugly 19" wheels - replaced since...by less ugly 19s because I like sidewalls.
My service advisor commented he'd never seen one as stripped as mine, and he loved it for it ! (me too). My shifter console has enough blank buttons to spell out Stripper AND Peasant ;-)
hahaha amazing!

well I’ll be… looks like apex is using my car on their site - without a discount even :-)

same as stock - but the front is a bit wider so the tire sits more square. You can go 245 305 per their site - take a look at the fitment page

So happy for you and welcome to the (in my opinion) most purist car you can buy!

Funny how everyone always does the frunk photo - I stuck my daughter in there and took a photo the same day I got mine home. The lid was open as well if anyone wants to know.

Congrats!!! I just got mine a month ago and loving every minute of it....and your car is definitely not peasant spec.....my only option on the build sheet was power folding mirrors lol (so no moonroof, 4 way power seat with manual aft adjust, 19" wheels, and not even bose audio). Looks like you even have the PDLS headlights as well. Enjoy in good health!

Congrats! Great spec! Look into a tune. The .2 really wakes up even with a more reserved tune. Advantages of a turbo engine!!
