Received from my dealer today regarding my R8 order:

Due to overwhelming demand and an extreme worldwide restriction on Carbon Sigma, ordering of the Carbon Sigma Blade (6H3) option has been suspended until further notice.

To ensure retail orders are appropriately scheduled, dealers are encouraged to remove the Carbon Sigma Blade option (6H3) from all SOLD orders. Without this action, you can expect production delays.

Please ensure the Carbon Sigma Blade (6H3) option is removed from all dealer inventory orders.

i'd bet most R8 buyers are willing to wait to get exactly what they want

if'n i was able to get an R8,....i'd get the car asap and get the cf blades later.

Thats exactly what I did...Phantom Black with Phantom Black Side Blade. I've been told that anyone who inisists on CF blade, will get their order pushed back and will risk not getting one at all. I'll get the carbon fiber on my V10 once they have sorted it all out.

How much is this option?

GR8 Ghost

$2,000

They are $4,500/pr if you purchase the parts stand-alone, but I have a feeling that will start to happen once people get their cars and find out how much nicer the CF looks...
