I think she might be the only Volcanic Orange in Seattle so far.

Just as I thought, Alki is a great photo location. Mine is on the boat right now, although I don't live in Seattle that's one of the first places I wanted to take her to do a photo.

Vet, thank you for posting pictures of BRG 3rd generation with chrome shifter - looks terrific.

from the second picture, it appears that the seats are dark truffle. If that is the case, how do you like them? Are they supportive? Like the color and the alcantara strip? if you are inclined, it would be much appreciated if you could post some detailed pictures of the seats thank you in advance

Yes they are the truffle, I love the color, and hug-like "just right" firmness of the seats. I'd get them all over again. Here are some more photos.

Yes on both counts but it looks brutal after sitting in the sun on a hot summer day. Eesh!

Thank you for all the kind words, I'm loving the heck out of this car! As far as the shift **** I think I'm going to make it wear a sock on hot summer days while it's parked!!

Interesting, that makes it seem like the center ring matches the hue of the ambient lighting pretty well, but in my car the center ring doesn't come close matching in some of the colors (teal in particular, which is my favorite ambient color).

It could be just the camera I guess.

You don't see many in that color. The more who see that picture, the more who will choose to buy that blue. Very nice looking!

It's amazing how different the car comes out with white vs black on the VO. I feel that the black looks much more aggressive.

Thunder Grey

I was going to wash Cooper, but it ended up raining. The next day i installed the Go Mini Go No Holes License Plate Holder for the F56. So far, it's pretty solid and doesn't make a sound.

I almost thought from the first photo you had Hunter Green. The Thunder Gray looks good!

I'm interested in this style plate holder, but haven't heard of this brand. Could you post up a full front end shot with the new holder?
