Yeah, I don't like the Brembo wheels either. I like the 19 inch wheels better....

And yes I do have some red floor mats Codeman. lol

Something about those 19" 5-spoke wheels that is really clean/classy.

Maybe it is just that I prefer a nice clean 5 spoke since my GF's car has like 18 spokes and is a big pain to clean. And since I clean my wheels at least once a week, I don't need to take 5 minutes on each wheel.

So what changed your mind? I thought you didn't like the 2011's and were done with them?

Congrats on the car it looks great! Just wondered why the change of heart all the sudden, did it just get in your blood once you actually saw YOUR car?

Congratulations! Great looking car! Any testing miles on it?

You may have the longest time record for now, but unless mine (ordered 2/3) comes in before 8/2 I will have you beat!

Yes I was, but I reconsidered when I read an article that said the Brembo brake package had different shocks on it. The one that I first test drove had the Brembo package, and I thought I would at least test drive the one that I ordered to see if there was any differance. So, I did that over the weekend and it seemed to be firmer then the one I had orginally test driven. And so I deceided to go ahead and buy it.

God you Race Red/Brick Red guys are killin me! Every time I think I have a favorite color combo, I see another that changes my mind. Guess I'm a little glad I'm not buying right now...I would be so undecided on color.

Yeah, this car looks good in so many colors it makes it hard to choose. Then you think about the possibility of different spoilers, no spoiler, stripes, louvers, window tints, wheel designs. There are a lot of different ways to go with this car and still end up beautiful. It makes a person wish you could have three of them.

Congrats man, that is a sweet ride. Did you purchase the red mats with the ponys on them or did they come with the car? I like those mats and would be interested in getting a pair.

I have similar floormats. I got them from Latemodel Resto on sale. I wish mine had the tribar though, as mine only have the pony.

I bought them from American Muscle for around $80. But, CJ Pony parts has them too. They come with small mats for the back seats too!

Yes, they come with one clip for the drivers side, but the plastic studs on the floor that go thru the stock mats don't line up with the new floor mats. Maybe that changed for 2011? It doesn't bother me, they fit nice and flush with the floor.
