The delay is now 10 weeks so too long for me, besides most of the GT3 do not have them and I will find it much easier to get in and out of them!

Your opinions/help in regards to spec and if it needs tweeking would be appreciated.
Your spec is the complete opposite to mine, yours is luxurious whilst mine is basic. One thing I would think about is the painted interior. It is a marmite choice. If you are worried about resale it may put more than a few off.

If you are keeping for the long haul please ignore the above and order it how you like it !!

Ahhh ok and storage nets worth doing as free too? Would like CS but its a rip off for a small roll bar not like with gt3 you do actually get a decent cage. Went to OPC today have 1st car of next year apparently!

PCCB im skipping as standard brakes I read are well up to the job

News from the USA ... 2500 cars of which half will be for the American market, and sold out.

Hence 1250 for ROW ... and sold out.

AFAIK there have been 0 customer deliveries in the US to date, so I am guessing this is a PCNA car.

Yes I thought same so was surprised, not even sure if there is a dealer in Vegas, guessing there must be. Was a nice sight either way and makes me want delivery of mine even more.

Maybe that's just the positioning of the microphone but that sounds a bit naff and nothing like a GT car..

Hope it's better than that !

I have been told today by my OPC that they have received a further 3 cars for 2015 but that this is the 2016 allocation that has been brought forward.
My dealer said similar ,3 extra cars this year,but their allocation hasn't gone up .

Congratulations!

Were you already told that you would get a car or are you now getting one because of additional allocations?
