Sports car = less is more, that is the approach I took.

Got an email from my MA today and my coupe made it off the ship and
is at the VDC. I should be able to pick it up Tuesday or Wednesday. I can't wait.. Finally it is almost here!

Looks amazing in Midnight Black with Silver. I'll trade you your chrome grille for my JCW one.

@Cred, Thanks!
@jamesday24, I was surprised the base coupe came with the chrome grill. Sets off nicely against the black :-)

that does look really nice. I am biased, but I have never liked the aesthetics of the hood scoop and much prefer the look of the Justa's.

jbs111,
Glad to see that you got your Coupe. It looks really nice and I too really like the interior. Great choices.
Have fun driving it on your long commute.

You still need to post pics of your wires' Coupe :-)

woo hoo! Officially listed in the OL as "scheduled for production" and a VIN is now assigned. Supposed to be starting production this week. So maybe it will be here waiting for me when I get back from SE Asia early next month.

Whose car is on the Elektra? My car is on the Elektra. Baltimore ETA 11/18.
If there's a crackmonkey driving my truck from the VDC I might get it before Thanksgiving, but I'm not holding my breath. I'll be more than happy to put the Thanksgiving travel miles on my present car.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It keeps raining on our nice new Coupe and I'm getting pretty tired of having to wash it nearly every day now.
BTW, I did post a few pics of our new Coupe. You must have just missed them. They're back on page 38 of this thread (
post 947 ).

jdurdick,
That's a sweet looking JCW! Love the all black interior. Those dark face JCW gauges look spectacular as does that JCW steering wheel. Kudos!

Do they actually truck it the whole way or do they stick it on a train first?

I second that. The beige seats look great (I've got some too). Try Cocomats like I have (see my gallery).
Question: How much is the JCW package and what do you get besides the aero kit and the wheels?
