    Picked up my new 2011 JCW Hardtop yesterday from the Woodlands dealer in north Houston (Quickplug-they were a pleasure to deal with-hope their service dept is as well). I won't go on and on about the drive home since all you owners already live the experience. It is quieter, smoother, more well appointed, and faster than I anticipated.
    Any of you potential buyers out there who might be straddling the fence-DO IT !! You won't be sorry-also bought a couple of bowling shirts to make it official.
    Also, Thanks to Nathan and all you posters-there is a lot to be learned from wandering around in here.

    Congrats on your new JCW.

    Not sure if you want the trek but every year after Christmas a bunch of us from the Dallas area have a little run to Waco for lunch. Normally it is the Saturday after Christmas but with that being New Years Day it will now be on the 8th. Visit WacoRun | An outing from Dallas to Waco for more info.

    Thanks for the shirt order...I'm sure the others that already ordered thank you as well as it moves us closer to the goal.

    Welcome aboard and thanks for the shirt orders. Now you need to make plans to attend MOTD and show off both your car and the shirts. :Thumbsup:

    :Thumbsup:Your FUN has only just begun. Nathan's right about the Waco Run.Try and make it if you can as it's well worth it. It's actually two runs. The Scenic Runners take off first for pictures and sight seeing. An hour later the(SSHHH Top Secret):eek6: SPIRITED runners take off on remote back roads to experience the full potential of top end performance. Either run is great but usually being alone,I prefer the spirited run.:lol:

    I have an uneasy feeling I will not be able to say this for very much longer:
    "Can't remember the last time I got a speeding ticket".

    A good radar detector is mandatory and should be included in the JCW package.... LOL

    Thanks for the invitation but will be visiting my Mom in Marble Falls and I WILL be taking the scenic route - the Devil's Backbone in Wimberly!! These little cars are born for those kind of roads.
