Hate to burst your bubble, mate but we had a red GT on our Brisbane run last weekend.

Roy had the camera fitted to it and I gotta say, I'm not impressed.

It does look like it was just stuck on with glue. It does not have a nice little fairing around it and it most certainly is not faired into the rear bumper.

I'm pissed because I've ordered and paid for mine.

However, I am going to make a nice little hood for it, out of fibreglass, to try and hide it a bit.

When I get it fitted and make the little fairing, i'll put some shots up.

Not happy, Jan!

Quick question: What's the difference between the Roadster's air-conditioning and the GT's climate control?

The usual thing with climate control is that you set a temp and the unit maintains it. With standard AC you control by slider or tuning the fan down or closing an outer etc. if the ND can maintain a temp with top down on a hot day it will be remarkable.

I have a 2liter roadster on order with a 2016 build request. Can I ask for those who's getting first dip on the 2liter landing in oz, have you got your VIN from your dealer? Any method in tracking the order from build to shipment?
Thanks

Is it that the full climate control where it also stops the sun burning your head? I've tried to find out in a Mazda 2 Genki with the same system but can't seem to get the roof down.

While we're at it, what would happen if tried to drive my smart city brake support equipped car onto platform nine and three quarters?

What does a 6 Year Panel Protection warranty mean? It says it in back of brochure, but doesn't have what it entails? Anyone....
