I suppose it's possible, but probably unlikely - I come from a fairly small family.

Pics posted below

Wow d, that looks awesome...I love it Thanks for getting the pics up. That exact interior made my short list, really like it. Post some driving impressions when you get some miles under your belt.

Nice Pics. Here is another one I managed to make small enough to post. Top up this time. Still trying to figure out what to call mine.

That's beautiful in black! We probably would have gone for black if it wasn't so hard to keep clean. I guess I'm getting lazy in my old age. Great looking car, though!!!

"Stealth" as I have decided to call her had her first bath and wax yesterday. Used 3M synthetic polish, works well, buffs easily, only downside is that I had to order it online (could not find it anywhere).

Here are some photos of her afterwards, not as scenic a background as "dgilmore" has Shall have to take here to a part next time.

Still having fun and waiting for that magical 1200 mile point so that I can release her.

Paul-
Stealth is a beauty! I'm saving all your pics to hold me over until mine arrives Glad to hear you are loving the Lounge Leather What are your thoughts on the manual roof? Easy enough to use?

The top is easy to use, easier to use if you are outside the car, but you can operate it from the driver's seat too (lowering is easier than raising).

As someone requested, here are some photos of Stealth with the active spoiler raised.
