Well, I haven't taken delivery yet. I have to wait two weeks (it's on the boat ATM). I decided on a 2011 brilliant silver/touring w/out the sport package ($35,800 was cash price for car...hope that wasn't too bad of a deal?). I like the forged rims, but I thought since I'd be mostly commuting and doing the backroad weekend warrior thing this was the best option. Dunno...do you guys think 18's ride much quieter?

Hate the stock rims though, so I'm already shopping. I still have a grin from the test drive two days ago. Haven't had that much fun in a coupe since...

This seems like a great forum, looking forward to doing some reading.

Welcome to the site.

Wheels are a great mod that stands out more than anything, IMHO.

I ended up cancelling previous order, and going to another dealer.

I was really surprised at how cheap the paint was.

Nice! Looks pretty... what issues with the paint have you noticed already??

It feels exactly like the paint on my old g35. Thin paint coat, thin clear coat.
