    Awesome, Mike.

    Give us some more impressions! I wish they'd make it to the US already.

    Congrats Mike!

    Brilliant Red with Carbon Sigma blades? Nice.

    Polished 19". Not my cup of tea, but they look good I must admit.

    BTW, normal sport seats? Tell me why you did not go for Buckets like on your V8?

    because the bucket seats are not really bucket seats, the look nice but will not give you that much more side stabilization. I will mount some real bucket seat from OMP or Sabelt or Recaro........

    I agree with you. Also for the upcharge you loose side airbags. That not a big deal-just for example on Porsche Buckets you get side airbags as well.

    Great looking ride - it looks so much better in red with carbon sigma sideblades (as red all over)

    And - although i get used to the V10 wheels - still prefer the V8 ones

    Looks forward to more pics and reports

    Congrats Mike!

    Nice colour! We are waiting for more pics. I think 19" Titanium will be better for that colour combination, but that is only my opinion.
