I thought I swung a pretty good deal with a corporate discount - knocked about $10k off the recommended retail (but who really knows)

Spent some time today listeing to the difference between the standard stereo and the hifi loudspeaker system- couldnt really hear any noticable difference, would like to know if anyone has heard the hifi 12

I was told delivery will be Aug/Sept but with no guarantees

Still have a week to finalise colours (toss up is between the black and the space grey) Look forward to see everyones pics.

I did see a saddle brown interior at the dealer - looks fantastic (like an individual option)
