Just a couple of bad cell phone pics in a parking lot right now, better pics to follow after I have time to detail it and get out my SLR.
Initial impressions after about 200 miles:
1. I love the way the car looks, it's even better in person and has a mean look to it. The wing in the rear view mirror reminds you that you are driving a GT car, although the sounds do that as well.
2. Interior turned out very well in my opinion. I went with the red stitching and belts which completes the black and red theme.
3. Check your tire pressures at delivery! The tech had mine 10 psi high in all four tires which kills the ride!
4. Gearbox is a peach
5. Exhaust sounds great, some gear noise and tire noise at higher speeds.
6. Clutch is stiffer than some but very nice and easy to modulate. No problem in traffic.
7. Handling is very precise, almost telepathic compared to even other very good sports cars.
8. No issues getting in and out of my driveway with an angled attack. I was worried a bit since my Z06 would sometimes scrape backing out.
That's all for now, more to follow after more miles. For those that are waiting, I don't think you will be dissapointed!

Looks great I've gone black wheels too to make the big reds stand out

I'd love to hit Chin, but I'll be in Vegas that weekend. I don't think it'll crack 30 personally all stock. I'm thinking lower 30's, but not under 30 IMHO. Well-driven .2 997 GT3 and RS's on slicks have a hard time getting much under 28 or 29. Either way, I have no doubt the car is going to be a BLAST on the track.
