Default New owner in sunny Florida

Hey guys,
After about a year of savings, waiting, lurking/learning on this forum, and then looking for a car with the specs i wanted; this Saturday I picked up my new '07 MB Enthusiast. It took me a while to find one in Black AND with manual transmission in the Enthusiast trim.
I am taking it easy for the first 1200 miles to allow for proper break-in (keeping it under 4K RPM's) but, it's hard...the car just begs to be pushed.
I'll probably go get the windows tinted sometime in the next few weeks (We're already hitting the 90's in Florida and it's only June!)
Just a quick pic I took this morning before heading off to work. I'll be sure to take more!

Congrats on the ride. I'm also in Florida. Broward county. Yeah its getting hot. Just a note on the tints. I ended up getting FormulaONE clear tints that 99.9% protect against UV. But still give that factory clean look if your interested. The web page is http://formulaone.com/

Welcome to the club. Pinellas County here, it hit 96 degrees saturday the 9th

I'd cover that pretty black up with the clear bra. Mad rock chips that will make you cry over time.

Thanks for the links and the greetings guys! I'm definitely loving the car. I asked this on the audio section but just figured I'd as you guys as well..since maybe it's an '07 thing
Also looking into the clear bra and the clear tints.
Is it just my car or the rear speakers are way underpowered compared to the front? I'd say about 90% of the sound comes from the front...i only know the rears are even working after playing with the "fade" function and set it to rear-only (wanted to make sure they were even plugged) but the sound decreased about 90% as opposed to the middle setting or front-only setting...
I figured the rear speakers being closer to my ears would sound much louder than the front?.....
