So, is tomorrow the date? Honestly I am not expecting any surprises - reviews will be stellar.

I expect reviews to stop popping up at midnight tonight trying to scoop each other...

The reviews quite possibly might start going live at 6 PM EST as that will be midnight Stuttgart time.

Is the GTS the "sweet spot" again?

If one prefers mild hybrids, sure.

Of course I personally would not want to be a beta tester for the next couple of years.

Tomorrow the embargo will be lifted!

July 9 can't come fast enough.

It is ultra fast and probably less turbo lag. And state of the art engine. So I expect 296 level reviews.

Whatever we say bhp numbers still sell - for most people outside RL. So the 540bhp is a major plus - at least vs the 400bhp base car.

Does the GTS really say “t-hybrid” down the doors without option to remove? Ugh. My build sheet shows “GTS” on the doors but the configurator says “t-hybrid” like in those photos.

It is just a sticker. Can be removed very easily.

Sure. But currently there’s no option to remove it in the configurator which is annoying.

I'm antsy to get more pictures and videos of the new machine polished S wheels. I have these specced on my order which locks soon. Debating between machine polished or gloss black.

Depends on the color of your car, which color are you thinking off?

Between GT Silver and Ice Grey Metallic. I believe there’s a review car in IGM although it’s a GTS and I’m getting the base. Love how the black GTS wheels look with IGM on the .2
