took her out for the first time

[JW313]

Well - it's only been in the low 40s here in Bavaria but I couldn't wait and decided to take the spf460 out for the first time.

I am not sure if the looks on peoples faces were pity or car fascination but I did get a lot of them. My girlfriend (bless her heart) sat beside me and we hat a great time even with snow in some shady places.

First driving impressions:
- too much tire pressure (I guess), since I could feel every pebble and cigarette butt on the road.
- little hard shimmy feeling from the front while braking
- parking or turning around in a tight spot is a pain
- sound is awesome
- I expected a bit more power out of the 460SVO cobrajet. I did rev her up to 5000rpm but she felt a bit hesitant or reluctant.
- fuel gauge is going from half to quarter really quickly
- she takes forever to get warm ( I mean the Cobra)

We both enjoyed it, I got it out of my system and look forward to spring.

What a great car, I can't wait to get more accustomed to it.

Congrats! I have to wait at least a month and a half before I can drive mine!
