No I have the standard radio never was meant for Nav 3 speakers less and a few little wires and GPS antenna and stuff like that about 10-15 lbs.

My car was updated to 2013 specs it was never ordered with Nav. I didn't look at the picture you posted I thought you might have found a way of adding it other then external.

What did you do to update Nav. dealer updated software. Or did you do something else. Mine has no Nav I was looking at my choices to change that, I have a small portable that I can put in the cup holder but it would be nice to have on the main screen.

The width of the wheel could make a slight difference I didn't notice you had different wheels on the car. If it was on a wider wheel it would depend on if the tire called for a wider wheel or not, then if it was on the wheel width that was the same for both no change . If it was stretched to be on a wider wheel it would not be higher if anything it would be a bit lower, if on a narrower wheel then called for it would be pushed up a bit and be higher. All tires are not always made to spec. To get height you take the width say in your case 325 mm Div. by 25.4 that is 12.795 inch times that by the aspect ratio in this case 25 that gets you 3.198 side wall double it for top and bottom you get 6.396 and add the wheel size in this case 20 inch and your tire height will be 26.396 inch in height

Your 325 / 25 /20 is .80 of an inch shorter than the 305/30/20 that will give you a bit more acceleration and cut back top speed a bit always better to get the performance where you will use it it is also .78 wider that will help your launch .

By using a larger tire like a 325 vs the 305 unless you are dropping the aspect ratio like a 30 series to a 25 your rear tire is higher that in effect changes your effective rear end ratio, that will give you a higher top speed but slow down your acceleration if you post the size of your tire I can tell you how much higher it is then stock and your approximate ET loss.

Next time I go out I will take a few and post them . Good job on your drag race times, I am always interested in any thing at the track, as you may or may not know I was a very serious drag racer for 40 years, and still am interested. Keep up the posting of what you are doing.

Thanks I think it makes the back end look hot with the stealth package it is a good contrast to the red. The Carbon wing was MSO that's there special options division they are like Aston Martin they will do pretty much whatever you want just pay the price

Iphone5 lighting not so good but better then nothing.

I just ordered HOT MCLN

I took these today with my Iphone 5

What do you do when you are in the car and you pick someone up, do you put down the passenger window and try to explane how to open the door, and how well will that work?

Try normal in Handling, track in Performance and Auto shift It should shift at the optimum rpm in track performance with Auto shift and you can still use launch control. And leave the spoiler/air-brake down it will not help in the launch and it will be a negative on the high end

What is the best way to get my pictures in here. I did it before but today its not working Never mind I remembered at 1 AM

The price point is really not similar my Lambo msrp was about 415000 the mc was 291200 both loaded but the Lambo is fast but brutal and an event to take out the Mc is soft and gentle . If you want to have fun and be part of a circus seen go Lambo. If you want to drive fast and be comfortable go Mc. I got it last night after driving it around the city maybe I will see things different.

I picked up mine last night same lightweight options but I swaped to the corsa tires just took some pictures will post tonight. I read the owners manual until 3am the it calls for 94 octane aki fuel add some 100 octane mix and see if it improves keep a recond of your weather for your runs to make comparisons very impressive keep it up The factory list the car at 10.6@136 you pickup a bit with the rollout at the track you are correct with the Corsa tire you could run 10.4 factory number 10.6 take down 1 for rollout and 1 for tire and 1 for gas you will run a 10.3-10.4

My buying experience= I try to buy F12 2 dealers tell me to wait 2 years I try to buy SLS AMG Black series coming in Aug 2 months still can't get a firm commitment dealing with 3 dealers and MB customer advocate at MB headquarters . I try to buy Mclaren from 2 local dealers both very friendly and helpful both tried hard but didn't have a car with the options I wanted I would have been more than happy to buy from either of them, I went online looked at inventory of next closest dealer 400 miles north he had a car with all the options I wanted. I called asked the price it was more then fair I gave him a deposit on the spot asked him to change to Corsa tires and have it ready Friday morning and pick me up at the local airport he answer no problem thank you. Mclaren is trying to be a customer company if you add in how there took care of everyone who bought a car before the upgrades pretty soon some of the other stuck-up company's will need to change or loss more of there customer base. I will report on the pickup and delivery after I get it in the morning and a 400 mile drive home.

I tried to buy in Aug. or Sept the dealer would not give me even a 1000 off I walked, I just bought this week and I am sure there are factory rebates to the dealers to move out the 2012 coupes because with what I got off MSRP I could buy a decent luxury car. It was a high optioned car but thanks to some of the posts I read last week i new what to expect the range that was talked about was correct.

It has Volcano Red CF engine cover CF engine bay covers Sport exhaust Stealth pack Super-lightweight -forged wheels stealth finish Corsa tires Carbon Ceramic brakes- Polished calipers Full leather interior carbon/black contrast stitching on dash Carbon fiber interior electric heated memory seats Carbon fiber sill panel Parking sensors Mc brand floor mats battery charger Fire extinguisher MSO Carbon Fiber air brake panel branded sill plates mso contrast stitch on seats red

I just bought a new MP4-12c I will be picking it up on Friday and have a 400 mile ride home any suggestions on break-in or anything else to watch out for. I think it will make a nice partner for my LP640 Murcie it will be replacing my Aston DB9 as my regular driver. And I can now use the SRT8 Jeep as transporter of people and things.

Any opinions on the RR Ghost coupe coming out next year, It will be performance based 600HP lighter weight . sounds like it will be the RR version of the Bentley Continental GT

If the software changed they would have been able to update the 08 they looked it up it was the same.

Yes it did but faster and more rapid than what. I wanted to update my 08 to 09 specs i contacted the dealer who contacted the factory 2 separate times and areas because I didn't believe the answer, they claim they just changed the name on the button, I know it sounds like bullshit but if it is it's Lambo bullshit. I was more then willing to pay for any update or change. I don't know how fast the shifts are but they are OK but not the fastest around.

Please go check the trans in the 09 Murcie is not the same as the 09 LP560

They did just change the name on the button I checked with the technical people at the factory, that is there claim.
