nice, any reason why you decided not to spec the WP?
Because I prefer the look of the non-WP car, like the standard wheels and prefer the standard back to the the rear winglets, wanted the rear carbon wing and that was fine to have on the standard car

Although at one stage I did think about changing the order but by then they had run out of the WP bits

Traxx, congrats on the new car. Are you in the 918 Owners Group on Facebook? I'm still a week away from getting my car and I'm already finding it useful.

non-WP but with all the CF (inc wing)



Lovely! That plate has adorned some cracking metal. Do you still have the GTO? Quilte literally, the finest car I've ever heard (some years back now, trundling around Victoria).

Haha...tell me you don't drive that along the Embankment every morning? How are you finding it? Shame the GTO has gone. Is it still in the country?

was nice to see a 918 in the neighbourhood yesterday, instead of the usual processions of 458's. Seems to be more 458's than Audis cruising around Charles Street these days biggrin
