Default New owner!

Hello, everyone.
Today, I took delivery of an 07 Silverstone w/ red/black interior.
I'm so excited at the fact that I finally got the dream car I wanted for so long.
spent about half an hour removing the spring spacers. (never trust the stealers )
Sorry about the crappy pics.
will post better shots sometime this week.
Thanks!

Dan

Congrats on the car!! Good thing you found those spacers before they caused you other problems.

Congrats, great way to start the new year. Seeing how car is new I would have had the dealer take out the spacers, but that's just me.

The dealer said they already took care of it, and it was marked as "removed" in the service checklist.
I'm really anal about these kinda stuff so I always have to check it myself no matter what.
I wonder how many new owners out there actually know about the spacers.
Anyways, I gotta find another excuse to drive the car!!

Great, Dan! Nice catch on the spacers! Dealers are so lame. 8 years of model production, and they still can't get it right.

Anyway, love the 2-tone interior, and have always been a 'stone fan. Beautiful.

Thank you so much for your warm welcome, guys.
I really appreciate it.
I can't believe how perfect the car is in stock form.
I'm planning on enjoying the car as stock for about a year before I go FI
Thanks again for your replies, everyone!

Dan
