Yeah...I figured that, but I didn't see the rear one either.

Anyhow...nice car. With so many black and silver ones running around it's nice to see a white one for a change ( Pearl White is one of my favorite automotive colors ). I notice that with the low-profile tires and the body skirts, though, there's not much ground clearance. You must drive it pretty carefully on rough roads and ramps.

actually from the blown up shots, the photographer just set it so the rear plates were just out of the sight. on some extra pics i have here i see tiny bit of the rear plates

driving is ok, it's our daily driver anyway so hard to avoid anything. just be a bit careful but not a headache yet
