Wow, nice damn picture! That's my car, except for those strange "de-icers". Happy driving SirLeNerd...

Brothervoodoo what exactly do you mean by 'de-icers'? Are you referring to the outlet "garnish" (strakes?)

Personally I think they're great. Very eye catching, and seem to give the appearance that the car is even faster ;-)

Absolutely beautiful. However, I can see why those with gray and silver colors are looking for clear side markers. The orange color detracts a little from the overall look.

No, I think he's referring to the headlight washers!

Congrats, it looks great - did Kramer add the strakes, front rotor accent, and splash guards? I want to pick up those pieces - if they can get them quickly... I might have to visit them very soon!

Did they give you any sort of a deal for the demo, or was it still MSRP?

Regards,
Gordon

Yes, sorry I meant headlight washers, we don't get those in the USA.

I concur with the white sidemarkers, slap those on and it gets even better.

Thanks for clarifying :-)

Kramer's demo had all the bling bling when I test drove it last week. I was talking to the sales manager and he said they had ordered lots of accessories for the 8's, the additional "stuff" makes it even nicer to look at.

I'm getting comments on this vehicle everywhere I go. Today some kid and his mom stopped and took pictures. Me being the friendly sort, allowed him to sit in the drivers seat and his mom took another picture. I love this car and I love to talk about this car just as much.

Yes, the headlight washers are functional. If your lights are on, every 5th time you spray the windshield the headlight washers kick in. They just pop out a inch or two and blast the headlights with a pretty heavy shot of washer fluid.

icic, so they pop out to reveal the washers...i think that's friggin' cool...can someone take pics with them in action or at lease while they're popped out?
