I'm excited to hear your reactions after a few days with the car. Coming from a MKVI GTI (and spending a few months waiting with a Toyota Highlander), I'm completely blown away.

I'm taking a road trip through PA this weekend and fully plan to win in battle against 18 wheelers for auditory control of the Allegheny Mountain Tunnel.

I didn't quite believe the others when they said it, but it's impossible not to grin once you hear the engine growl to life when starting the car. I find myself constantly turning off the fantastic Harman Kardon stereo just to hear the exhaust note.

Awesome. I love the color combo you ordered...it's definitely not over-the-top. I also wish I had the stones...

I picked up my car on Tues. I agree 100% about the exhaust. I'll post some pics later.
