10/24/2015 acquisition.
« on: October 28, 2015, 09:48:40 PM »
Hello and great to be here

After two plus years of contemplating one of these little beasts, I finally traded for one.
2013 with almost all options ( I think ) Less than  5000 miles for $15980.   

Love it.   Has improved acceleration with these 500 madness Power Trio parts and turbo blanket that came on it

Wife drives it more than I do even though it was "intended" to be my car!!

 I'm just glad she is enjoying it as much as I am

Nice to get some members from across the pond. You guys are lucky in that the M/A has been cracked over in the US. Here in the UK nobody will touch the thing!

No need to be sorry, I've flipped them for you :)

Lovely. You have the US verison of the Essesse alloys which I believe are forged in the US. Wish ours were  :'(

Really?  I was lead to believe that the Esseeese wheels were all made by Brembo in their factory in Bergamo?

.. Learn something new every day ;D

Another photo showing the side repeaters are also on the rear of the US spec 500s. What's the idea of these extra lights, anyway ? Aren't the normal front and rear turn indicators considered enough ?
