The beast has arrived...

Kris · 05-29-2008, 02:39 AM

Well just got home

car parked outside.. need to put it away. Had a guy stop me in the street in St Leonards...'hey mate is that yours?! spent 10minutes talking' - bit of a head turner...

Here are SOME photos whilst collecting it..(no PP, no contre-jour here!)

Know what you mean! the acceleration is like a sledgehammer! really gotta watch myself... had a bit of a slip side around a corner with a tad too much throttle but it was fun

blackie36 · 05-29-2008, 02:44 AM

kris - not sure if you meant to, but your rego isn't blurred in the first shot!

Kris · 05-29-2008, 02:48 AM

SHould be fixed now!

airhead · 05-29-2008, 02:50 AM

Congrats. Very envious over here with my 'tractor' engine

Wayne, I was going to joke about flying down to Melb. to pick up your car for you but turns out I probably am flying down. So... a game of 'find your 135' perhaps?

blackie36 · 05-29-2008, 02:59 AM

Kris - check the reflection on the first photo!

dodgey · 05-29-2008, 03:28 AM

That looks awesome Kris congrats. Thought I had finally made decision for SGM but now teetering back to AW after seeing that....tomorrow the deadline....

Enjoy it mate. I saw a silver one buzzing down King st. in the city on Tuesday. First I have seen on the road. Looked great.

Like to see some interior shots if you get a chance too mate.

blackie36 · 05-29-2008, 04:38 AM

Harpoon - I think it might have been me that you saw in King Street!

Hahaha no I'm pretty sure it was titanium silver not SGM blackie. Mind you it was moving at a decent clip so could have been you.

I was having a beer at the Forbes at about 2.30 Tuesday. Made my day seeing it!

cozza · 05-29-2008, 04:53 AM

Nice one Kris! Nice number plate too (reflection)

Don't be scared to show it, people see it every day...

Zuzu · 05-29-2008, 05:01 AM

Nice crisp pix Kris..
Will have you take pix of my vert to post when it arrives..

Kris · 05-29-2008, 06:12 AM

I wet myself when I saw the reflection, thanks guys! dumb moment

I am blonde after all..

The car is fantastic, just cant tell you how cool it is.

Nifty features is the mirrors tilt down when you reverse, so so handy!! Love the lights when you unlock the car and the auto roll back thingie for hill starts is simply superb!

Joe: happy to mate, these photos are a quick job. Ill get some more on the weekend for you guys.

harpoon, ill take a few for you also of the interior
