As suggested by mrizzle, here are a couple of pics of my new beast.

1) The RCZ flash along the base of the doors - expensive but nice.

2) Strange R motif on the centre console by the electric socket - almost looks like it has been put there as an afterthought to cover something?

3) rear view showing twin exhausts and fixed rear spoiler.

Looks great.
I'm guessing the emblem is to cover the rear spoiler manual switch that you don't need ?
Be careful where you leave it.
Have you been effected by any floods ?

Yes, you're probably right about covering the manual spoiler switch aperture.

Plenty of flooding in Kent but I've managed to avoid most of it so far. Learnt my lesson a few years ago when I drowned my 406 Coupe in a puddle that was deeper than I thought...

Nice to drive, and what I notice more than anything is the acceleration in 6th gear, which is unexpectedly zippy.

Beauty.

Agree stipe is very nice,

interior plaque is well tacky

and the jury is out on the rear spoiler. I actually think the rear look is one of the cars best features. Smooth clean lines which accentuate the wide stance of the car and the curvature of the roof and rear window. I'm not sure I think the spoiler upsets that clean look from the back :eusa-think: it may be just that picture and may look different in the flesh

Your thoughts :?:

If the spoiler had been an option, I wouldn't have opted for it.
Not convinced it has any practical use and it does interrupt the lines...
...but I won't let that interfere with my enjoyment!

I'm sure it won't mate. Either way you have a FANTASTIC car and will be the envy of many :thumbup:

You probably won't notice any difference whatsoever at UK road speeds but going above that it most definitely comes handy.

And wow, someone on the forum actually got an RCZ R already! Looks very good!
