    It Took Forever but...

    It finally arrived...
    It was a long and painful saga but...
    It finally arrived.
    It was an obsession that took over my life but...
    it finally arrived.

    This car is everything I dreamed a sports car should be and...
    it finally arrived!

    Re: It Took Forever but...

    GREAT car !!!
    Love the way it looks in the picture. Is that pure black ?
    I have a pure black coming in March. Still patiently waiting.

    To post more pictures just reply to your initial post and add a picture. You can add one picture per post.
    Or you should want to use a service like photobucket and put up links.

    Re: It Took Forever but...

    Yes it's pure black on black. Options...sport chrono, LSD, Adaptive Sport Seats, thicker multifunction steering wheel, stainless steel illuminated door sills.

    The car is just so amazing...I go into my garage and stare at it each night.

    I've been on rennteam for years and I still can't understand how some people can add many photos in the same post!

    It's pretty easy. They post their pictures to another site first, then link the pictures ([ img ]http://mypictures[ /img ]).

    Re: It Took Forever but...

    The Groom is right...I have my own online photo album at http://jasontang.virtuality.org/motoring and I just link all my pictures from there to here instead of uploading the images to rennteam. That's how I'm able to have multiple images in one post. Hope that makes sense.

    Re: It Took Forever but...

    Also, if like me you don't really want to bother with an online album, try a site like http://www.tinypic.com where you can upload any pic you want and it provides the tags wrapped around the link to copy/paste directly into your post.

    Yeah! Niiiiice! WOW. Staring at photos is like a two minute vacation.

    Side view showing wing would be helpful (I'm trying to get used to that pesky wing).
