i'm not sure what other waxes/sealants are there that will give you a more matte look.

I think people make it look over-glossed in the photos which is why I was mislead. I'd prefer a deep finish instead of a reflective one since my car will have a pearl effect.

I picked up my FR-S at 7pm last night, and I'll post photos later today.

This car is just perfect in every way...I love it and I'm glad I didn't have to wait any longer.

We can now start our cruise planning.

GrimmSpeed · 06-08-2012, 11:07 AM

Alright, there is enough of us now...lets meet up!! We could meet at our shop if you guys wanted a central location otherwise I think someone mentioned stillwater...that would be very cool too.

I'm at 600 miles so a nice, long drive anywhere is fine with me. I drove out to Stillwater yesterday for dinner at Marx Wine Bar. I'm down for whatever,whenever.

Yeah, I mentioned Stillwater, it'd be a great drive and we could hit the starting point at your shop Justin.

By the way, here is my car:

Thanks for the support guys! And she is a beautiful machine, I'm really happy I chose Whiteout.

I'll let you guys know what day works best...

Chupacabra · 06-08-2012, 02:25 PM

Does Sunday work to meet and do the 1st ever group drive?

GrimmSpeed · 06-08-2012, 02:27 PM

No go for me this Sunday. Might be better to do a weeknight? Meet up at our office after work then head over to Stillwater? Later in the day is better for pics too.

How does Tuesday night work for everyone? We can meet at GrimmSpeed's Super Secret HQ about 5:30-6PM and tour it up.

Picked up a whiteout at from Matthew Gilbert at Luther/Minnetonka. Professional, seamless and they have a blue mt on the lot. I was happy to drive straight home into my garage. Then i checked my pants - no shit - lucky me!

FUN FUN FUN

Got a little cross and powers out wherever pointed. Very nice driver. Smooth up gears and no hesitations. Sounds just like it looks it should. I am very pleased with this vehicle and will drive off the first 1k with a smile on my face.
