My new Silverstone FF !!

I picked up this beautiful FF yesterday from Midwestern Auto Group in Dublin OH!! I still have my California and will save it for the really nice warm days. The FF is really amazing, it is a secret super car!! I thought my Cali V8 sounded great at 7 or 8,000 RPM, this 12 cylinder engine sounds insane. It has unbelieveable torque and is a ball to drive. I drove through very heavy rain on the way home and blasted around other cars, even a string of cars with abosolute full control. I had the dealer put Sottozero's on it all ready getting ready for our winter, saving the PZero's for next spring. It has the High Power radio and it sounds WAY WAY better than the California with a standard radio. It sounds more like I am sitting in my living room ... this option is WELL worth the money. I will put the full option set in the next post. I am extremely fortunate, what a wonderful looking, smelling, and SOUNDING machine.

I was very lucky to get this as their demo car had just expired time and this one was about to become the new demo. Got her with 86 factory miles.

I wear jeans all the time too and never had trouble with the beige interior of my Cali nor my wife's Porsche with cream interior ... until I got some "Ballroom" jeans from Duluth Trading and they put blue on everything. I finally got rid of them and no trouble with other jeans. Their advertisements are great, jeans are not at all colorfast.

Thanks all! This car was spec'd by the dealer as a demo car but never had a demo mile on it because they still had their first demo car. The first is still there, metalic black and I like real black, not metalic, and this silverstone had a prettier interior. The dealer extended the demo time on the black one for me so I could take silverstone. If I had ordered one it would not be delivered until May so I took this one.

I took my daughter to school today, about a 30 minute drive each way on both country roads and city roads. I am just beginning to get used to the new sounds the engine makes, both from the exhaust and from the intake, and the combination of which is rediculous and addicting. I sit here typing this crap and would FAR rather be out in the FF making more sweet music although I guess I have some business to attend to as well.

It is taking a little time to get used to the buttons on the steering wheel. Flashing the lights at an idiot for pulling in front of me is being difficult to remember without taking my eyes off of the road, but this is only day 4 in the car.

The doors are MUCH bigger than the Cali, and it is far easier to get into. The seats are wider and more comfortable.

The power level as I already have said is insane. In first gear the tach doesn't seem to keep up with the actual rpm as I hit the limiter once already thinking I was shifting plenty early. All of this with snow tires on it. It will be really interesting next spring when I put the PZero's back on it.

More to come I am sure
