Not ruling out my Nightfire Red non-turbo order, but I might go this route. Still not sure, but (if you get a chance) does it look like a potential winner?
Thanks.

He shoots, he scores! Unless, of course you're a woman, and it's still a great build.

Not a woman, but I did cry twice at parents' visiting day at camp yesterday.

Looks like a nice car! The Brushed Alloy Interior Trim looks so much better in person

I was kinda partial to the evolution of your Nightfire Red option in the other thread, given the way you described your expected driving habits. I know I'd appreciate the superior mileage (esp. with the 6-spd manual) and non-runflats with the insurance of having the spare. The CWP is a good choice. Plus, it's such a unique and awsome color. Unless you're going to go big into aftermarket mods or plan on lots of track/auto-x time, I'd be tempted to stick with your original idea!

That probably makes the most sense. Just brainstorming.
Thanks.

CoryS...I loved the MCS.....I like the way it looks, the way it drives, the way it handles....and it is a much different car in many ways. But for me, the MC is just fine....as I'm not racing it....although that turbo kick is awful addicting!
