Hi, fellow FiST-ers!
Just got back from Charlotte North Carolina last night, where I picked up my Molten Orange with Recaro seats, red calipers, Nav, and Moon. I was all set to buy a Tuxedo Black at the dealership, when I saw my first Molten Orange in the flesh in their parking lot, and I couldn't resist! We had to redo all the paperwork, because I was all ready to drive out with their Tux Black before insanity prevailed... and I'm glad it did!
It was a fun highway trip from Charlotte to Atlanta, but it did not even compare to the thrill of driving the twisty, rolling roads close to home...
So far what I like most is the broad torque band and exquisite throttle steer; least Fave, (but, I'm sure, fixable) is the stereo, and I just noticed an uneven body panel, and ever so slight tint differences at the rear driver side... this on a new 2014 with 85 dealer miles... My guess is that this is just low quality workmanship at the factory, but I will be asking the dealer about this on Monday...
Edit: After some rest, I realized I'm probably being nit-picky with the bulging (~3mm) bumper panel...
