The car looks like it is sitting too high.

Great to see some possible colour combos other than the factory offerings.

The RS chin spoiler lip is tough to get. I saw an RS yesterday at Sebring that did not have one. I asked the owner and he said that it did not come from the factory and the dealer was having trouble getting one. I have gotten a few of these so far (all gone though). Last one I ordered from Germany came back with a ship date of April 2009. That usually means that they have no idea when it will ship. It then showed up 2 days later somehow.

I like the color combo on the car....

Haven't seen this one before.

Ours has slate wheels, mirrors, wing plates and graphics. I will pick ours up on Tuesday and have it cleaned up Tuesday night. I'll post pics.

Got that right! Had it two days, washed it twice, dusted it three times. Clayed, waxed and rewaxed. Just the wheels left to detail. I hope with a good base, it will be easier to maintain. (I forgot how hard this all was; I sold my wife's black '94 C4 wide body back in 2003.)
