Ego T Member 26 Member For: 15y 6m 4d Posted 01/07/09 05:16 AM Share Posted 01/07/09 05:16 AM Well I'm back on the Coast...I've gotta say, WOW this thing is a missile! I had a couple of test drives but it's not until you're on the open road that you appreciate what a powerful beast this thing is! The acceleration from 100k's is amazing, overtaking is amazing, the push you back in the seat feeling is amazing... The only bit I'm worried about is the fact that I could'nt control myself during the "run in" period because I gave it a hiding from Melbourne to the Gold Coast but hey; I could'nt help myself. Time will tell I guess...I love everything about the vehicle but feel it lacks a couple of things.1. Non auto electric windows all round2. Nowhere to put loose coins, you know, like a coin tray? Anyone tell me where it is?3. No sunglasses holder.that's all, not much really in the scheme of things.For all of you who have been driving these things for years, I'm jealous as hell but glad to finally be in one.

Just don't hold it on high revs for any length of time. You wanna run it in good before you start modding. Your right Buf Melbourne is stupid with it's cameras and I drive like a pensioner when down there.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it goes ok mate, let us know.SteveMate I finally got some joy from a fellow ( cant' say who or where yet ) but he couldn't believe how ass f%$^ed we got and is really (really) looking after us; needless to say I got to pick everything we wanted. Ended up picking white after seeing how sick INFLYT looks. Hopefully the car will be delivered in two weeks. We are probably going to put 20 x 8.5 Jet League F-35's with the black centres (after looking at hundreds of wheels) and lower it 1 to 2 inches and black the windows out.

I got a permit from Vicroads to drive it to QLD therefore no number plates.... Hopefully that will help. :banghead: Mate I finally got some joy from a fellow ( cant' say who or where yet ) but he couldn't believe how ass f%$^ed we got and is really (really) looking after us; needless to say I got to pick everything we wanted.
