Just Delivered...It's a Boy and 1900 lbs.

FM Former Member
Great news this morning...got into the office and had a voice mail from the truck driver..he was delivering today!!!! Hooooray!

It looks great, runs great, I can't believe it finally made it.

Can't wait for the end of the week...it was as colder than it has been all year, but clear. Supposed to be sunny and 60's later this week, I can't wait to drop the top do some ripping around.

I need a little practice on the 901 5 speed, that strange shift pattern is just weird. I want to downshift, but that means you have to shift forward to second, instead of pulling back to second....I just need more flight time I guess....It isn't just automatic...I have to think about it.

In any event "Yabba Dabba Doooo"!

Thrilled to have the car, now just need warmer weather, but I did get heated seats too.

It is supposed to be in the 60's and sunny by Thursday, so I may get lost on the way to the office or not make it back after lunch.

I hope to take some new pictures, top down, in the sun and post them by this weekend.

Thanks for the comments. I really had some great input and ideas from the people on this website when I was planning the options, colors, etc...

"...uh, Hello Boss? Yeah, well I realy don't feel well today, think I may be coming down with the flu that's been going around lately. So maybe it's best I don't come into the office until I can fight this flu bug off. So I'll see you next Monday. Call me if you need anything really urgent". Click!

Vrooom!!!! (Sound of Speedster starting and tearing off into the horizon).

What a cool looking Speedy!Have fun and be safe! - MUSBJIM

Yelp another rolling work of art. Is realy is very sharp .All the details just right.
Take your time and do enjoy it. I'd plan a weekend getaway If at all possible and drive the heck out of it.

If you get a chance record a sound bite or two.
I'd like to hear that baby talk.
IIII LIKE IT!!!!
Is that your selected exhaust? or a system Henry is now fitting them with?
FM Former Member
The exhaust is standard I think for IM, at least for the 2110cc engine and 2165cc. It has ceramic coated headers with two flowmaster mufflers and exhaust tip. It really sounds nice. The 901 5 speed is extra.

I will post some photos from a very nice day this week, with the top down, boot on, luggage rack off, and with the moons on. I actually like the wheels both ways, wide fives look a bit tougher, the moons a bit more polished.
