Default I'm offically a member. Picked up my car today.

I've been part of the forums for a few weeks now as I was researching cars and went through the shopping process and now it's official I'm part of the family. I picked up the car today from the dealership and was able to take a few quick pictures. Thanks everyone for your assistance and answering all of my questions and being there for me on my future questions =)..

thank you Marko. I'm going to try and make it to Hershey this weekend. My wife has a shower so might have some time to kill. Hope I can make it there to meet you.

Congrats!

I was always curious to see what smoked out tail lights would look like on red as I had considered doing it myself. That is the only aspect of a red F-type that I didn't like, you lost the cool contrast of the lights and the body. Red on red just blended in too much.

How much darker are your tail lights and brake lights now?

thank you. Since they are LED's and are extremely bright. Today was a very sunny day and my brother who was traveling with me home from the dealership said he had no issues seeing my lights when I hit the brakes. I too think the red on red was too much and the black off-sets the rear end. Very pleased with the results and how the car looks..

Sweet ride.
Did you remember to turn on the active exhaust on your way home?

It's pretty much the only sound system that I play
