Default My Wait is over !!!!!!!

14 Months I have waited. I started this quest in Dec. of 2008 Ordered the car originally on Feb 7 2009 In Ice Blue Colo. In Aug. I was told no IBM so I went with PTS Azzurro California Blue. I was worried about the color until the car came in. WOW is all I can say Love the color Love the Black Blue Interior. Everything was better than expected. With one exception the leather has blue stitching which looks great but the leather around the PCM has black stitching. I assumed it would all be blue. Dealer said if it was suppose to be blue they would replace. Not sure if anyone else has a Turbo S with black blue interior and if they have same at their PCM.

Was able to put 100 miles on the car last night. Love the PDK in sport mode. Have keep RPM'S under 4200 and will for a break in period. But this car is fast wicked fast. Even put the top down for a quick ride with my son he loved it says he wants it for his Bday one day. I told him ok for your 50th Bday its yours I ordered the car when I was 48 I will turn 50 this month so What a Birthday present for me

Here are a few photos of the car taken right at twilight with my Iphone. These photos don't do the color its due Justice at all. I will gets some better photos on a clear day with a good camera.

Stunning Turbo S. Congratulations!
You look a lot younger than 50 in the photo.

A new Turbo Cab just in time for Spring - not too shabby! Just curious, flappy paddles or button shifters?

love the color combo. The interior looks fun but not over the top.

Wow! What a beauty!! Definitely worth the wait. Plus, judging by the pix, it's already making you younger! Either a Benjamin Button scenario or you may have just found the fountain of youth!! Enjoy in good health.

Finally! You had to wait longer than I did. But as you can see, it was worth it. One of a kind, and spectacular!
