No, they were very careful to keep it covered when we had access to recording devices.

Photo below shows why. Is an this accurate representation of the color/finish? (For some reason the photo's blurrier after uploading - forum software compression I guess.)

Yes, thats the racecomp guys pics of the springs, so the stock ride height is higher but just the paint does indeed look just like that, its metallic and really shows off the lines of the car very well

Ultramarine is gorgeous. White IMO is just too plain for this car

Thanks for the reply, great to hear it's a realistic rendition. That shot of the car is just about my favorite to date, the paint is really complex and yet subtle in its effects, amazing.

Gotta stop drooling on my keyboard...

My guess is FiveAxis didn't want photos slipping out until they make an announcement or some type of press reveal. It also could have just been a marketing move to make us feel like we were getting insider info.

$2k including paint! Its like any other factory kit though, since its sold through your dealership they're gonna arm-n-leg ya!

Didn't make the trip =\ did Scion give you all a specific date on when we're getting them?

Assuming you mean delivery, they said "May". I was left with the impression the cars are most likely in-route by now.

I hope so! I can't wait to get stated working on this car. Thanks!

I wonder if the people in California will get it first or will everyone get it the same day?

Sorry for all the questions

They are gonna try to get them all to dealers at the same time. But realistically it will be a two week period of first86 car arrivals depending on location
