After taking delivery yesterday, I was able to get a 200 mile shakedown drive across some KY backroads. I'm happy to report, the car worked perfectly! However, keeping the revs (mostly) below 4000 rpm was difficult!

I have lots of thoughts but the the two most notable driving observations are: (1) after spending 3 hours behind the wheel, opting for Touring suspension was absolutely the right choice! (2) The grip this car has, even on the goodyears, is impressive! Its going to require a track to comfortably find the car's limits.
