Regardless of how many think it's "cool," few would actually commit. It's painful to look at.

I love this dark grey on the RS!




































































































It reminds me of my favorite grey card.

The 'Exclusive option' aluminum shifter and e-brake trim is the secret to getting deviated stitching on the shifter boot and e-brake handle.

The great thing about that car is that if you have the flu and sneeze snot all over it, you can't tell !

Is that great or what ?

I like unusual colors, but this one is just not good...

bound to be; PTS (5500), all that deviated stitching (???), PCCB ($8k), not too mention the customized highlights (forget the option code, but I think it was around $7k) ... right there you have an extra $20k on to of the base car.

I think it was $186k, or very close to it. It also comes with a super cool book that the factory made for the car. It's wrapped in the interior leather of the car. I'll try to post some pics

That is pretty cool, what's the story behind the book? Is it a piece of optional equipment? Another box to tick?
