Sweet looking ride! I also like the laser blue, and it was certainly
on my short list.

Grats!

Ok yall, I've come back to earth for a few minutes just to post some pix for ya! Check out my gallery

The sun held out and it was a gorgeous day of motoring.
First song to warm up/test the H/K audio in the dealer was Ali Ajami's guest mix on Transitions from September 2009. Rolled out of the dealership blasting Yamil Colucci's April 2010 Sol Solar mix.

It was an EPIC day! Looking forward to tomorrow's 45mile AM commute

Nice! I would have probably gone with other wheels because they get kind of lost in the pictures... maybe it looks better in person idk..
I really liked the title of the dealer pic

Thx everyone.
Commute was superfun this morning.

@VMCMDN: the wheels look better in person IMHO but I'm quite biased
I was thinking about the black webspoke at one point but I saw them on a car and they looked like 16" wheels because of the silver outer piece.

I've got the 17" black star bullet, but if the all-season tires matched the black web spoke, I would have gotten those rims. I think they look sharp. Still, I am happy with my choice.
