Delivered!
Just in time for Christmas 
Other than the shipper scrubbing both the front and rear spoiler and apron (I have a new replacement front chin that I'm happy that I decided to have shipped with the car rather than installed) the rear apron is very minor, you can't see the damage without getting on the ground on all fours BUT i will still have repaired as I'm crazy fanatical and the shipper will pay. Otherwise I'm ecstatic- amazing in person, the stance, lines, colors pop in real life. The power is honestly intimidating- I feel very comfortable in my RS but this is definitely a car that needs to be respected . It pulls slightly right on hard acceleration and returns back when you let off- I assume it may be tires but not sure- they are the original Michelin Cups- 1600 miles- thoughts? Thinking I may switch to the Supersports as I'm not much of a track guy. A few quick pics- and then back to wrapping and Rum/Eggnog:big gulp:

Hi. Re pulling slightly out of line, my modded 996 GT2 also did that before the LSD had a service. It's wasn't the tires in my case.
I'm pretty sure however it's also not that rare. Watch the Chris Harrris video where he drag races a Ducati in a 997 GT2 ....he also has a pull literally upon accel from memory...
Enjoy the beast you own!
