Wink Beyond The Road, Swiftly

Hello to All!

I am a proud new owner of this awesome machine.
I have read everything possible before purchasing.
Now that I have one, I will try to give my personal
impressions, which I have smattered all over this
site, in various categories. Following media exposure,
I felt like I had many questions about this car. So,
I'm gonna offer my input to anyone who wants it.
If you are interested in this car, I would like to help.

Actually, the car drives awesome, and it's styling
is intoxicating, if you like what you see.

I peeked under the hood and found the stock front
strut brace. No wonder why the car feels so solid
on the road. And those new brakes are a very
welcome surpriseI

I also took some cool interior pics that I am going to
post, cause I didn't appreciate the ones that I could
find. They really don't do the car justice. Not that
I am a photographer (as my pics will show), it's just
that the interior of this car is really very sweet in
person. The leather really is improved from all
previous cars of the brand.

If anyone has anything specific they would like to know,
I would be happy to take a shot at it. I will try to be
subjective, when fairness requires.

One last thing.... this thing is really fast.
I think R&T has it at 0-60 in 5.9s.
Can you say Sleeper?

I neglected to mention that the stock stereo is very impressive.
Mine does not have nav, which I don't miss.
The sound is really nice. Plenty loud. Subwoofer included.
You really can't ask for more.

I have noticed that some of my CDRs will skip on occasion, but
I'm not sure if that has to do with the stereo or the quality of
the disc (or lack thereof).

I am at about 650 miles on the car, and really getting the feel
of it, clutch-wise. The V6 motor is so smoooooth. I find myself
having to pay attention not to rev too high, cause it is quiet and
you don't notice the engine revs until you get to 4K.

The other thing I noticed was that, at 3K rpms in 6th gear, you
are cruising at 85 mph. Nice.

I would recommend this car to anyone!
Haven't seen another coupe on the road yet.
Come on guys and gals! Join in!
