Every day at the same traffic lights when I'm on my way home from work (if the weather is nice)fold the roof down and each time I get the same happy almost cheering attention from the pedestrians and other motorists around me:)12 seconds is fast compared to other cars here in Europe (for comparison Volvo C70 takes 29-32 secs )I have to love my car. “And now for something completly diffrent”

I still have great trust in the car and it's safety feutures. The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) saved me I must say, I was able to steer the car in a more "safe" angle before skiding of the road.Otherwise i whould have gone airborne. Thanks

I hope you enjoy your car. Hi

IF, and IF I do get a car, I'll do the same, provided the car is a snazzy model, I guess it's soemthing like how some brides get a mini version of their wedding dress on a barbie doll.

The car gets delivered by sea to my dealer in Tokyo and then they prep it, install all the dealer options, registration, license plates etc. And then I have to install the nav and some other stuff. I have to get a 3rd party to do it because it's really quite difficult. I already have the white/clear side lights! uh..it doesn’t work that way.

Will make the new Panasonic come in handy ;) Anyway, the color is a great match to the RHT! Perhaps you can ask your dealer for a set of white side-markers though?
