    I find it so shocking that every time I see a car for sale the floor is never vacuumed and cleaned, why? Such a small thing to do to make the interior not look like s*^t

    It might be, was done production weeks ago and in pre-shipping storage. I just assume one day in the next 6-20 weeks I'll get a call saying it's at the dealer!

    Latest was that it shipped from the factory on March 7. Haven’t gotten an update about landing in NJ or when it will arrive in NV. Just as well, I’ve been so crazy busy I can’t even think about dealing with all the pre-delivery stuff (PPF etc).

    Just a designer's observation. :rolleyes:

    Body color rocker = car looks lower and 'planted' to the ground
    Back rocker = car looks lighter, leaner/slimmer

    What effecter you looking for?
    No right or wrong answer.

    I guess you mean black rocker and not "back rocker". As weight savings with these few kilo carbon fibre aren't the reason to buy them, the only question is wheather I like it or not. I plan to spec cf front, side and rear diffusor just because the black plastic looks "cheap". If there is design-wise an alternative to carbon fibre I would go that route and put the 21k in something else.

    I don't think car looks lower with black skirts. It's just the opposite. It adds visual weight and the car looks bigger and higher. More paint=more car...
    I don't like.

    Very good point about more car! I prefer matt black or even carbon if I had unlimited budget.

    Looks great.

    I think you would have a lot of takers if you provided gloss black replacement parts for all the plastic rocker, splitters, and rear bits. This red car screams for them.

    I can't imagine it's that difficult to mold and have painted black ... nor that expensive.
