No, I didn't learn of the option sticker until after I visited the dealer. I'll definitely take a pic and post it up tomorrow!

Thanks for all the comments, definitely seems like a good forum to be on!

Normally, I'd pass this off as bs... but with all that I've been through with the PPI and the hour drive to the dealer, you did have me going for a minute

Yea, I had a sense you were still vulnerable since the dealer still had it on their website. I couldn't help myself. Sorry, it was cruel, but glad I didn't give you heart failure. ha!

I know the feeling. I was about to purchase a car, and when I went to pay for it, the dealer sold it up under my feet. I was ready to kill somebody. hahaha Anyway, hope you enjoy the car!

Ask us about the IMSB, preferably while including your own theory. That'll set you straight about us real quick

I know when to throw fuel on the fire, at least I didn't ask what oil I should go with!

Throw back to my old pig of an Evo, although I did love her

At our last track day, the Evo beat a McLaren, 3 - 991 GT3s, a lambo and a C7 Z06. You'll never hear me talk smack on them again.

I agree completely, there wasn't much I couldn't beat when it came to curves stock with bolt ons. It was just all the damn electronics, and maintenance... hell more insurance $$ than this car by 10x!

I wanted to go back to basics... rwd, naturally aspirated, and the old school throttle... just like my e30 beater but but better!

A hell of an experience driving this wonderful machine made by unicorn blood!
Finally got her home, and I have to say this is night and day over the Evo!

I don't miss the bucking of the Evo at all, just hate the sticky radio *****. I may have to upgrade the stereo system, but nothing silly... want to keep the weight down

I was going to keep this as a weekend car, but I don't think that is going to happen.
