sounds about right josh, the only thing i will add is

here are the prices without tax


“Base” 66,675 alloy wheels

“black” -$68,580 forged wheels ( black leather only)

“Premium” 71,870 Bose . alarm. Side air bags forged wheels


also the ZELE flyer referred to it as a V36 not R35 and they were correct with the design.

I like it better too! Also, consider that these canards could actually be "opened" (air ducts).



i think the ducts have moved to the bottom grill area. like in that pic from gran turismo!

Also, I think the black portion of the side-mirrors are the turn signals.

Although on second though, I think these "canards" are actually LED turn signals (a-la-Porsche)!
