Delivered end of Oct. 2011, put away for winter.

Currently at 4200 miles, already been to Fords at Carlisle Pa., two days of open track at Watkins Glen NY, and a weekend trip to Montreal.

Coming up, another trip to Montreal for their version of Fun Ford Weekend at Sanair dragway, and then off to the Woodward Dream cruise, in Detroit, Mi. Montreal is a 750 mile round trip, and Woodward will be a 1500 mile round trip.

So I figure by the end of Oct at the one year mark, I will have about 7500 miles.

Nice sounds like your enjoying the heck out of it. Very jealous I'm from Buffalo and I am very interested in Woodward. Cruise.

You know it's only a four hour ride from Buffalo to Detroit ?

The Boss turned 15,000 miles yesterday at about 13 months old. I'm hoping to take it off of daily driver duty within the next year. Meanwhile, this car still makes me smile every day.

How's the Recaro material and wheel holding up.

Jimmy Pribble

Really well. The steering wheel is holding-up better than I expected and better than the seat. The highest wear point on the wheel is where my left thumb hooks under the left wheel spoke. If I really look, I can see that the material is squished-down a bit and ever so slightly discolored. I'm talking about seeing this with a photographer's lupe.

The seat material is perfect, except for the classic wear area across the bolster from when I get in and out of the car. The fabric (not the Alcantera part), is already starting to fray. Not a lot, but if I compare the two bolsters from the same seat, I can see a difference.

I'll probably do a 20,000 mile report with photos. I'm finally starting to see stuff.
