And that's the one reason I may take it out to Autocross at least once or twice--to test the limits of the car. Seeing as how I'll never get a chance to take it out on an actual track (I'm not installing any safety equipment), Autox at Qualcomm stadium is about the best I'm going to get.

As for insurance, yeah I'm listing it as my second car and I already have the ten-year driver discount and a clean record so it shouldn't be TOO crazy... I find out later today....

Funny enough, my rates actually went down almost $200 a year due to the multi-car discount! With a lower deductible even!

Wow, gorgeous car, eslai - congrats! Real-life pics make cars look even hotter than in the "official" photos from auto manufacturers (IMHO).

Do you mind if I ask what camera that shot was taken with?

Do you have any interior photos you could post?

Thanks.

I don't really have any interior photos to post right now, I suppose I should take some eh?

The pictures were taking with a Canon SD300. More of a pocket camera than anything you'd really take pictures with, but with enough light and good metering you can avoid the fuzzy edges and chromatic aberrations that seem to be afflicting the newer Canon digicams that use the aspheric lenses.
