I never really look at the shifter except when I first get in the car. I normally always leave it in reverse when I park but would hate to be the first to make that mistake and hit the car in front of me.
Driving in flip flops ! Glad I live on the other side of the country

Sounds like I get my frs before the weekend which hasn't really sunk in yet after this crazy wait. So awesome.
As for hockey, oilers are on the rise! Friday will sure be interesting to see what happens.
Enjoy!
Mine came in yesterday but I'm being told I cant pick it up until Saturday, they said the other car wasn't getting pdi until then either. Not sure whats taking them so long to get it through the shop, kind of frustrating but at least I know I will be getting my car in a few days.

The orange is incredible! If I had bought the FR-S, it is the color I was wanting to get. Given how small this car is, I think bright colors suit it well. Congrats!
