New delivery

I picked up the 1m today.

Great car, just love driving it. I'm still getting used to driving a manual again, but its a lot of fun.

I love the engine sound. Just fantastic. I've given it a few squirts and the power is impressive.

I must admit I expected the ride to be more harsh, but in my opinion its the right amount of stiffness for a car like this.

Here are a few low res shots from the iphone, you've all seen an AW 1M

Must admit its a ball to drive! Whenever I've given it a squirt it really responds!

The only modding I'll be doing for now is sticking a car seat in the back for a while, that should make for an interesting look!

Welcome to the AW club

If you think the car is impressive now - just wait until after the running in service and you get to push the "M" button.....
