TOOK DELIVERY TODAY
Saw the Silverstone and fell in love. Thot about waiting but decided that if I did, I would change my order to Silverstone.
FANTASTIC CAR. Wife likes it MUCH more than she liked the M3 which she found cramped and rough.

Just thank your lucky stars it isn't an Aston Martin. Things do go wrong from time to time, but as supercars go the cars they're reliable and if you have a dealer with a decent service department ownership shouldn't be at all painful.

Alpine White M6
Picked mine up May 18th at Autowest in Richmond.
Absolutely thrilled!!
I wasn't too sure how Alpine White would look, but I love it.
As I drove around the first day, I had two people call out "Cool Car!", had to let it pose for several pictures from others, and had lots of other drivers ogling.
The people at Autowest were almost as thrilled as I was and that really added to the experience.
Have some great pics, but they will have to wait until I figure out how to post them here.

Hi Gustav,
Thanks for the offer of help with my pics, but I was able to upload them myself.
They are in the Alpine White thread.
