Congrats on the car. Any pics?

I smell rubber / plastic still at 1100 miles, those first few days I had it I was wondering wtf was going on...lol

I figured it was due to the premium gas (that alone does also smell different!)

Anyhow, it's not so much now. Tires grip a WHOLE lot better now too...lol
