    Martin, the surroundings are spectacular, the track itself less so. Too many 90-degrees turn to my liking, a bit too clinical. Should I say Tilke-like? The Dubai AutoDrome is a much more challenging drive, if you ask me. And you did! ;-)

    BTW, I'm from Breda too. Still have an apartment there...

    It's 100% stock. The only thing I did to it (and will keep on doing) is drive it hard!

    Fuel is the best we have here, so 98 octane only...

    Octane numbers are determined using different methods RON, MON and AKI...which is (RON+MON)/2. AKI is what we usually see on pumps in the US. Do you know which method is used in your country? I'm guessing RON.

    Yes, it's RON over here, so my fuel was plain 98 RON.

    That's correct. Have them in mine. They're a bit expensive but I prefer them to the OEM's that I've seen as they are a bit more elegant and subtle IMVHO.

    Hunter,
    Thanks for the pics, look great. That was a great show, much better than the street venue. PM me if you want.

    Rickycrete, yes those are the factory mats. I can say the white logo on the mats gets dirty quickly, no matter how hard I try.

    Mike

    I wonder if something like 3M Scotchgard Fabric Protector would help? Might be worth a try.

    As far as I know, you cannot order this seat style by default with alcantara interior - only with the leather package. Right?
