Got my car...

Just a quick pic and a note to say thanks to all the members here who have educated me over the past almost two years. Taking tons of pics, seeing lots of things; I'm sure a lengthy ED debrief post will ensue later on.

My only real initial feedback besides the fact that the car is all I had hoped, is that I think its impossible to judge the CP power changes before break-in is complete. I did a good 40 miles of harder driving, varying RPMs, etc to seat the rings, but kept it under 5400RPM. The steering and dampers on the other hand definitely a nice improvement from my initial impressions of the non-CP car (but that could have been highly influenced by today's adrenaline). While it is nice, its still nothing I'd run out and trade a '12 or '13 in on.

Sadly, Grossglockner was fogged in above 2000M... here's a pic from the backside coming into Heiligenblut!
