That looks lovely. GT Silver was my second choice. Glad you finally got there.

Damn, was really hoping I could get a lizard green version in there for a little more pop. Oh well, thanks for trying.

Same here, missed boat 1 last week. Next one is 6/6. Based on what I’ve been reading it takes most folks 4-5 weeks to get on a boat, so I’m probably looking at July delivery as well.
I haven't seen "4-5 weeks to get on a boat" as most peoples' cars were on within days. That sucks

Update on Sport vs Sport Plus: I just got back from my morning "add the miles for break-in purposes" drive and I can confirm, there is definitely a throttle mapping difference as I mentioned earlier, plus the PASM and backfire differences. So Sport is the best setting for me. I like the quicker throttle map and the exhaust burble. And I'll assume the nannies are stricter, which I prefer for the street in case something goes wrong, even though I have not been able to set off any lights for traction control yet.

Made it a habit to switch to Sport mode as soon as I turn on ignition. Also, someone mentioned E-brake. I just put it in gear and go. No issues so far. If brakes breaks, take it in for warranty

Fellow T-mates in tri-state area, have u been or seen outside today? What a glorious day. Definitely will be a 2 to 3 hour lunch pickup day

I've had the car for 6 days since getting out of PPF jail and I now have 626 miles on it. I can't wait to finish breaking it in, change the oil, and LET HER RIP!

Resigned from my job yesterday so I have nothing but time on my hands! Big plans for the T next week... she's going under the knife.
