Hi everyone. I'm the satisfied owner of a new tC: signed the papers on Friday, April 9 and took it home the following morning. It's all stock except for an automatic transmisison and the RS package (474 of 2500). Here are some snapshots:

Probably my favorite shot:

welcome!!! and you have one sexy car

 

[St0neY_Bol0gnA]

That's freakin sweet!

 

[Soundguy50]

damn, very nice...

 

[pharoh]

That's pretty cool. All I think it needs is some tint to match the rims, so you can have a nice contrast. Either way, great ride. Congrats!

 

[aznboy78]

whats RS? what comes with that package?

 

[trench]

RS is release series.. Im not much for red cars, but it is nice. And with only 2500 made, hey your in the ELITE CLUB

 

[Labfish]

That car looks frickn' sweet. Only one thing you need to get done to it...
Drop that bad boy. LoL...wheel gap is not your friend

WOW!!! The red on that car looks a bazillian times better than the pics I've seen in press releases. I'm not a fan of red cars at all, but that thing is effin' sexy. Congrats!

 

[Eric]

Looks great! Thanks for posting pics

 

[nrhanson]

Not sure that I am down with the red matching interior but otherwise the car looks awesome. Also, it is really cool with all the special badging.

 

[wolo]

Nice pics.

Did you notice wear-proofing on the driver side flormat? Is that something new in general, or do they only add it to RS?

The pics in the press release looked almost orange.... It was hideous. The actual car looks MUCH better, apparently.

Wish I could get that wear-proofing for mine.

Looking Pretty good there. I'm still not that fond of the red color though. The black rims look ok, I don't like how it looks with the red color. i dunno, thats just my opinion anyways. But congrats on the car and welcome to the site.

BTW, how much was it out the door w/tax and license?

The sticker was $19,090 with RS and automatic; we added $250 for amber illumination (I'll be going back to the dealer to get it installed soon). After CA tax/license and destination, it was $21,083.09 OTD.
