Ah, believe me, pics will be taken and I'll definatly start coming to some meets, again, after I get used to the MT heh. Anyone else have a base model? I think thats what I have, but it really doesnt bother me, I dont need any other things, I actually love the cloth in this car, its almost like valour..

Leather looks great in 8 but the cloth seats are better than good. I wanted leather for a while but it adds weight and doesn't hold up in scorching hot climates.

Base model. But even had I gone for more options I wouldn't have gotten leather.

Base model = starting point.

It's all about perspective!
