Take out all the glass and replace with plexi glass! even lighterWait, wouldn't the rear defogger add weight? Is a base car really a full experience with a defogger?

I think you may have misread, it likely will be a March build - and as Harry said, I would expect that the remaining base R orders will get priority when the factory spools production back up so that they can get those pumped out before the end-of-April deadline when all Rs will then have to be equipped with the electronics pack in order to meet federal back-up visibility regs.No March build? How reliable is this information? Any feedback on this Harry?
I must have read it before I finished my coffee.I think you may have misread, it likely will be a March build - and as Harry said, I would expect that the remaining base R orders will get priority when the factory spools production back up so that they can get those pumped out before the end-of-April deadline when all Rs will then have to be equipped with the electronics pack in order to meet federal back-up visibility regs.
I knew you'd cave in!!Found out over the weekend that a dealer in Chicago's south suburbs has a Leadfoot Gray R with stripes, so went there on Saturday just to check it out as I hadn't seen that color in person yet.
That car is currently available and has the electronics package and a 20K ADM. I have to admit, it's really sweet looking - pics don't do that color justice, as it really pops with the gloss surface when seen in person.
One thing I was surprised at, though, was how much I liked the matte black stripes with the red accent. Enough that when I got home I reached out to the dealer and asked if we could add those stripes to my order.
He just confirmed that the stripes have been added and mentioned that I may be hearing more about scheduling later this week - but as of now, it's looking like it may be a March build. Closely coordinating with Harry (PP0001) as our base Rs may be rolling down the line together.
After seeing those stripes in person, I found this pic on-line and really, really, like how the stripes pop on the Magnetic in the sun.
Very nice and can certainly sense your excitement and anticipation!
