Default Finally...2016 R has arrived (pics)
It's been 5 long months...

I got the call from the dealer late last week - picked it up Friday afternoon, and was able to put about 300 miles on this weekend.

I could not be happier.

My concerns about minor cosmetics, electronic steering & AWD were unwarranted - It looks amazing & steering feel and feedback is awesome. It will take some time to play around, but my initial impression regarding AWD is extremely positive.

Looks AWESOME. I took the day off today and I'm about to head out on the road. Wants rain the next 5 days so I'm going to work on breaker mine in today and might have to stop and find some scenic areas for photos.

This the by far the most exciting, fun to drive car that I have ever owned!

Welcome to the club! You're going to enjoy it!!!

It was worth the wait! Like the sapphire blue almost as much as the IRR. What color is the interior?

Nothing, and you picked the best color Gyrodynes, which I think make that color pop even more !
