Yes! These pics are super amazing!
Don't want to mount the front license plate (as shown) but I guess I have to, being in Cali.
Also nice to finally see a pic with USB 2.0 + standard wheels. I feel better about my order now.

Thanks for the pics. Between the looks and exhaust note this car is going to be by far the biggest head turner in its class! Only thing I am not loving on the exterior is the wheel choices; the base wheels are downright bad IMO. The 20 spokes look OK in pictures, and hopefully they will look great in person. Otherwise I am thinking some concave 20's would look amazing .

If you check the Color Simulation page, then you can notice that any JDM customer that chooses Orange Interior will have the Orange Color Leather in the instrument panel and center console.

Anyways a few more pics:
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM (which I think is not available on USA and Canada models)

Finally a torque curve of the RCF engine to compare with the ISF:
Torque builds faster from 3000rpm and maintains from 4800 to 6000rpm, unlike the ISF, which peaks at 5200 then falls. Headers and exhaust should fix the falling torque past 6k like it did on the ISF. RCF engine has a significantly better mid and top end. If you take the RCF torque curve data points and put them on the ISFs curve youll see how much improved it is.

But judging from my perception, I guess anything is a good thing.
Aside from higher torque spread of the RCF (compared to the old ISF), what else can we notice or conclude based on the graphical information above?
