Yesterday I took it on a 'mattress run' to an area hotel that happened to be close to some great driving roads. With the temps hovering around 45 degrees, the back end was a bit loose until the tires warmed up. Unsurprisingly for the time of year, the hotel was dead, but had a nice F car to park behind when I checked in.

I then stopped by a great supermarket on the way home where the 2 trunks easily swallowed $300 worth of groceries.

You know it! Lol!
This time I've stopped at the top and took some pictures. :)
Notice the ice on the mountain wall. ;)

I was heading north on 17 in that direction, but the sun was already behind the trees and temperatures were dropping so I turned around.

I need your Help!
 
I just got my GT4 on New Year's Eve! I had ordered some stitched leather wrapped pieces for the dash. All installed and look like they came from the factory. I removed the Sport Chrono Clock surround to install the stitched one I purchased. I can not get the new one to slide over the clock, it just is too tight a fit. The surround is a cylinder that slides over the clock - the clock is very rigid and does not move at all to accept the surround. The surround has a plastic fork on the bottom to align the surround straight up with the clock. The stitched leather wrapped surround I purchased is just wrapped over a stock plastic one, so I know it fits - I just can't get it in the opening over the clock. Anyone know if the clock loosen up so it can be tilted or does the dash need to be loosen to fit the surround back in? Thank you.

Would love to see pics. My suggestion would be to add heat and moisture. Perhaps from a steamer or perhaps you can steam up your shower and place it in there. That should do the trick.

No clue. Did a shakedown today and ran it up to 7k and all of the sudden the red warning message is on and I see lots of coolant spilling out the front right radiator area. They won't get to check it until Monday. Since the transmission work requires a full coolant flush I wouldn't be surprised if the tech goofed up on something. Absolutely livid right now.
