Well have returned and nailed my spec with the dealer.
This is what I have gone for....

Chili pack
17" Crown spokes
ASC+T
Sports suspension
White bonnet stripes
Smoker pack
Colour line - Pacific Blue
Interior trim - Fluid Silver
Hifi speaker system
Whie indicator lenses

Am dead chuffed and should collect late November/early December.

Nice spec and good colour choice

Did you get to see the colour on the dealers spec system?

smartbomb · Sep 29th, 2006, 04:49 PM

Thanks. .
The dealer had the configurator with pics, so was able to see a small pic of what it would look like.
The Lightning Blue is a smooth rich almost Hyper Blue shade. He was expecting samples through any day soon.
The interior looks awesome with the blue accents.

Still expected early Decemeber and hoping to go to dealers before launhc, but for certain on launch weekend.
May add iPod adaptor for £250 and still undecided on what roof graphics to go for. Any suggestions ??

Yeah i'll be at the dealers for the launch as well, hopefully get a test drive as well. I'm also thinking about the iPod adapter, just want to wait to find out how it works.

I think the Heliport roof graphic is quite cool, but I guess its personal preference.

From what I have been told about the adaptor it fits in the glovebox and will charge it up too. Operates via stereo controls and track names are displayed on the 2 line display.
Am tempted but it's another £250 and I could always use a connector/cup holder kit from Apple and save a few quid and be able to change tracks on the iPod itself.
As for graphics I'm leaning towards a target, but would like something custom after seeing this.....

The thing I want to know about the iPod is adapter is whether you can search by artist through the stereo? I can do that on my current alpine one and its really useful. Guess i'll have to see what the dealers say once they have fitted it to a few.

There are some really cool graphics on that site

I quite liked the massive speaker on the roof.

The i-pod link is £180 inc vat dealer fitted. 5 playlists + ALL tracks via multifunction wheel.

Spec says must be a 5th gen i-pod to give track details on display? (not sure if this is true)

smartbomb · Oct 20th, 2006, 04:55 PM

Well 180 is better than 250 ! So may add it. I was told it needed to be a 5th Gen iPod.
Yep, just the 5 playlists, but track details appear on radio display.
