Finally got my 135

On the 1st I finally took delivery of my 135 at the Performance Center! I am more than pleased with everything about the car so far. The experience at the Performance center was fantastic, the highlights for me were aggressively throwing the 135 around the track and the hot lap in the M5. On the way home I took a detour and drove the Tail of the Dragon, if you ever have the chance to drive this road Do It! I am convinced this is the most fun you can have under 4500 RPM. After putting 900 miles on the car I made it home safe, no drama, and no tickets and I am almost done with the break in.

I picked mine up on Aug. 30th, and took the same way back to Nashville. Looks like you had the same idea as me...windows down, sunroof open, and just listen to that engine sing.

Definitely. Having the windows down, radio off, and sunroof open is almost a requirement on those roads. The sound off the exhaust burble, turbos spooling, and tires scrubbing was one of the best parts of the drive through the mountains. This car sounds amazing!

Yeah it is Deep Sea Blue on Lemon. I am liking my color choice more and more every day. When I ordered mine I had never seen the color on a 135 and was a little nervous how it would look. It's funny how much this color changes depending on how much sun is on it. There are times it almost looks like Monaco in the shade and Montego in the sun. I would like to see it next to Le Mans to see the difference between the two colors.

Yes there are a couple of pics in there from the top and bottom of Deals Gap. That road was so much fun, I could see someone hurting themselves on it if they got too aggressive. On the other hand you could mind the 30 mph speed limit and still have fun.

Euro foglight switch, groccery grabber, warning triangle, and aluminum pedals. I either have them here or on the way.

I'm not sure you could consider those mods, but just some basic gee wiz kinda stuff. In the near future the performance spoiler is definatly going on, after that maybe wheels/tires and some suspension stuff.
