Ok, here we go,
After several years of driving some larger and less sporty cars (my last one is an Audi A6) I have decided that the wife should drive those and I will get myself a new toy.
After some considerations and test driving several cars like the STI , GTI and the S3 the decision has been taken to go for a new Seat Leon Cupra.
For those of you in the US market who don't know the brand or the car , it is basically a hybrid between the GTI and Audi S3/ED30. That means that it’s a k04 car with S3 internals and aluminum suspension but with a FWD only. OEM numbers are 237 bhp and 221 Lb/Ft
but I wanted my new toy to be special, and found a listening ear at the local SEAT distributer. That's why the car was taken with 10 miles on the clock directly to SEAT body shop for a new coat of paint.
once it got there the shop manager and Israeli VAG service manager immediately called me to a meeting , to meet the crazy guy who is going to do a paint job to a brand new car.
2 hours later and after signing a form declaring that I am the insane guy who needs to be committed and it's none of their fault the work began.
a week and a half later and after the arrival of a shipment from Germany of OEM Lamborghini Nero nemesis Matte black color , this is the result :
