Beautiful car, and great gift! Your wife is very lucky (and you are too as you'll get to drive it!).

I second what folks have said about driving in cold temps on the P-Zeros. I switched to my winter wheel/ tire set right before Thanksgiving, but before then I drove on my P-Zeros on a few cold (abt 35-40 degrees) dry days. The traction even in dry cold weather is very bad on the P-Zeros. They slip much more easily on turns, don't brake nearly as well, etc. They really do feel like driving on bricks.

Welcome to the triple black club, looks great. Get a foam gun and be prepared to wash it a lot.

The rag top works great with masking tape lint roller as mentioned before

IMO if you plan on keeping the car get a set of rims and winter tires, for the cold dry days. Had mine out Christmas Day it was -10 and dry, car was great, I know the summers wouldn't like those temps.

Beautiful car!

Gutsy move on the 'gift'. I know I'd be looking for a divorce attorney if my wife's gift was a car for me to drive.

Even more so that it was a combined Christmas/birthday gift. My wife would be pissed.
