I picked up my 08 yesterday. The weather was a pleasant enough in the Mile High City. Two days before it snowed. At this time of the year one has to really pick their driving days. First of all it is an amazing car! Even with the Denver elevation, the machine is a beast. It wants to cruise at 100 all day long. So far no wheel hop or any transmission shifting issues. I can tell there is still much to discover about the car. For those who are still waiting for theirs, you won't be disappointed. And yes, the 08 radio knobs have silver outline circles and the front seat belt shoulder adjustments are funky.

You know I was thinking about black on red, but it shows the gaps on the stripe job. Are they as prevelant in person as they are on the photos?

Thx! A mint condition stock 86 GT, 5 speed with factory optional 3.08 gears. The original 2.73's were terrible.

Good question. And the answer is a definate no. In person, every detail appears well balanced. I do see what you are speaking off. The issue is I took digital photos on the lowest resolution to save server space. As a result, one does not see clear sharp edges. The finer details end up looking chunky. The stripes are prefect, there are no seam errors to speak of. Overall, I am very impressed with the striping application. The high gloss is equally impressive. The striping gloss matches the paint gloss.

Thanks! To be honest any color is fantastic. Up in person the car has such beauty it takes my breath away. When I picked it up yesterday at the dealer, it was the first time my wife had seen one and her first comment was oh my god.

Another thing I had it dropped shipped for those you are going to do the same. The experience was painless. I dealt with the Fleet Manager who handed me the keys and temporary tags, then let me drive away. My purchase dealer took care of all local dealer handling fees.
