Very nice - clean looking GPX - nice rims with a good set of Bridgestone S03's.

Clean that engine bay and you could stick it into the show & shine on SEP 10th.

Aye yeah I suppose that does make sense..make sure the car purrs like a kitten before taking her to the limit.

Oh and if you want to push it a little bit (on occasion & private tracks only ;-)

) - make sure you have checked the oil level, and wait till engine temp needle is in the middle...If engine isn't warm MiVec isn't available, and the revving fun stops at roughly 6000..

When yuo do take her beyond that you'll notice a big change in the engine note - don't' be alararmed it's normal :-)

and it's great!

Again - congratulations, you're going to have loads of fun in your GPX..

Oh btw - do you have aircon or othe manual climate control? I noticed you have the GpvR spoiler on the rear end..
