I'm trying to really envision black GT/CS the way I would want it. Subtle CS things like mirror caps and spoiler don't pop on all black car so it feels like a little bit of a waste. But I am planning to do subtle accents on bottom plastic pieces in red. Photoshop time.
I am along the same thought path. That's one of the reasons why I got white.., the black accents look great on white...:thumbsup:

But a CS looks good in any color. And the interior, with red stitching, embossed seats and suede inserts, look excellent....:thumbsup:

I think I'm trying to convince myself to get this black one because it's on the lot in a few weeks vs factory ordering and waiting 6-10 weeks :crazy:

How much of a pain is it to keep clean? I can't for it to be covered in Canadian salt....:headbang:
Usually my Detailer cleans her, but only really worry about it in the summer with the Weddings and the Shows, over winter the exhaust tips and the wheels got a regular clean, but not much else. Some people are pretty anal with their cleaning, if she is not on show, than not fussed. Its a Daily Driver
Will give her a dry wash tomorrow, as have a meet on Sunday

6-10 weeks isn't too bad. But I ordered mine last March 19 and got it around May 20... Just in time for May 24 weekend. That's shipped to Newfoundland. :thumbsup:

I'm still a few months away from pulling the trigger. But the info in here has been vastly helpful in my consideration for what options to get or to skip.

Nice build. You'll be happy with the 401a, especially if it's your daily driver, it makes life so much easier. I want to get a CS front spoiler for my car, they look great.

Memory seats are very underrated. The mirrors are also programmed into the memory settings. I don't regret getting the pack at all. Having HD radio is also really nice, LA has a lot of good HD sub-stations, though of course YMMV.
