Is your car protected with anything or is that just from the dealer without any PPF/Ceramic Coating?

Congratulations! I’m totally on the fence with the bi-colour wheels!

Drove one on Saturday for a day and really enjoyed it. They have an amendable slot for September delivery….

No luck involved. I got the Cup2s as part of the track pack but bought PS4S's as a replacement. So now have 4 brand new Cup2s.

And PPF still to come.

Not sure how true it is but my mate took one out for a demo and the dealer said @ the 1200 mile service they unlock 70bhp restriction.

I'm not sure about that but I do know that if you have the track pack the speed limit gets lifted to 180mph at the running in service.

That I believe is some myth that the run-in service enables more horsepower, which actually is not the case. It's a simple oil service and the full bhp is there from day one.

Just been down to ATG (the ppf place) and your car is halfway through, and looking fantastic! Tom said the bumpers are tricky but he’s done a brilliant job of the front I’d say - the unavoidable shut lines in the ppf are pretty much invisible.

Looking forward to mine being done next week!

For those still waiting, it’s worth the wait! I’ve only had 20 minutes in it today before I took it to my ppf guy, but it’s epic. And the BG paint doesn’t show the dirt at all - at my request (or rather my ppf guy’s), the dealer didn’t do any prep work after getting it, but it still looked immaculate until you got about a foot away.

First fill up of many:
