should be on the f-type accessories page on the website. If not, I'll scan that page from the accessories brochure.

hmm, not sure if I got the brochure, but the website only lists the aluminum pedals for the ATs

Also it looks like I'm having problems at the gas pumps like some of the other Californian members.

Had my first fill up at a Mobil gas station and could not get the gas pump to pump more than a few gallons at a time unless I stand there and hold the handle manually the whole time until the tank is full.

And surprisingly I am having issues at pumps here in Maryland that are not problematic on my other vehicles. The filler tube probably angles sharply just after the restrictor plate causing backsplash into the nozzle.

You are correct. Those were the ones my feeble brain was remembering. However, here is the part number for the dead pedal that should work with both sets of pedals: T2R11322.

I installed the dead pedal on my AT, installation was a snap and took all of 5 minutes. Drilling is required, however. My AT did not have a rubber dead pedal, just carpet as in the 6MT.

Pic of the dead pedal installed.

I started the build process in Feb. I put the deposit down in March. I got a build date in May. I got a delivery date late May (Oct). I got an updated delivery date early June (Sept 7). that delivery date hasn't changed. No VIN yet. Pretty sure I am annoying my dealer. I want to know about boot custom luggage.

BRG w/ tan top Non-S manual 6cyl (but they did say they would give me an S button LOL).... 6 weeks out and will keep you posted. Unbelievably great work when it comes to ship's manifest stuff. Right on. I cannot freaking wait.

Hmm, how is it affixed to the carpet?

It seems like the manual area is thinner than the automatic in width

Location of the holes for attaching the dead pedal is up to you. As long as the dead pedal width doesn't surpass the width of the carpet, which it doesn't look as though it does based on the pictures, you will be able to mount the pedal.

My fathers V6S 6MT showed up at the dealer today, roughly 6 hours after our sales person told us to expect it to arrive at the dealership on the 7th of August.

Caldera Red, standard wheels.

Default Polaris White V6 6spd Base -- SHE HAS ARRIVED!

After nearly 5 months to the day of placing my order, my fat cat is finally parked in my driveway -- picked it up this afternoon.

Driving home from the dealership (stuck in traffic) I was flagged down by two different people, one guy just gave me a 'thumbs up' for driving an awesome car and the other had a bunch of questions about the model and specs.

BEST CAR EVER and SOOOOO worth the wait!

More later -- gotta go for a drive!
