So I went to get the window sticker from the car and noticed another "sticker". I guess the service department knows me well...





Upon closer inspections...

We'll take good care of her! Right now, it's undergoing some deep cleaning before we have our protective film applied. We'll give it back to you with 1000 miles on the odo!

Hehe- you guys are like an RS factory over there with your Veyron's, MC12s... What's another green RS between friends? Thanks so much for getting her in on like that (luckily? Carlsen didn't wash the car etc..) and in time for the Carlsen shindig on Sunday.

Just an FYI guys, Sammy/Premier, myself and Bob (from Autoconceirge) are going to be heading over this Sunday to Carlsen's PCA GGR Concourse and we're bringing greeny with us It'd be a good opportunity to see Premier's work (I'm sure there will be other cars that they've wrapped there). You guys should see Josh's RS which they wrapped entirely....

There is no point arguing over MSPC (997 GT3 type) and Pirellis. Both are useless on a dry track.
The car needs real MPSCs on 18" wheels. Hoosiers work too but wear out too fast.
This was conclusively verified by by our local DE instructors with 997 GT3s and RSs.

The original fit tires do suit the car well for what they are. Decent wet grip with almost r-compound dry grip. Michelin is not necessarily better than Pirelli and vice versa.

The "Green Machine" does look cool. Cars like that do work with such colors.

Congrats on the sweet ride - those black wheels look awesome with the Green!

I see that Premier is willing to throw in the added service of "breaking her in" for you.... Damn, what are friends for?

(I think that happened to me in college a few time, but I digress... I just hope my wife doesn't see this post...)

Enjoy!

Thanks Chuck! Haven't seen ya in a while, how you been?

As for Mooty, he's allergic to green so it'll be ok. Plus there is no way on Earth he's driving on Corsas

The rumor is true;( He only did it because I got one and he knew at that point the ghettoness would get to him...

His white CGT is a good replacement tho!
