Default RS7 Carbon Optic Package

Just ordered my Panther Black with every option and the dealer talked me into the high gloss optic package with the Quattro script. I am concerned that this script will block my built in radar/laser device.2nd, maybe the car is " too black " with this package and then the 21 inch black wheel. Worried I may look like batman to my clients

I think you will definately look like Batman. I say go with it. ;-) While I never thought about it, the RS-7 is likely the most bat-mobile like car in production right now.

For me, when choosing between the carbon and aluminum optic packages, it was all about contrast. I wanted the pieces to stand out against the body color. I really wanted carbon fiber, but ultimately went with aluminum as i had chosen daytona gray pearl for the exterior. I found the carbon fiber too similar to the daytona. Its all personal preference, and im sure the car will look fantastic whatever you choose.

My Clients love Batman

I'm sure yours will too

I think you've ordered it just right... it will look great

As far as Radar/Laser... they typically mount the jammers higher up closer to the headlights, and there's lots of room for the Radar unit higher up as well

Thanks dude. I can't wait for it to come. Anyone have good idea on how long it takes to get one after the down payment is given to the dealer? 6 months ?

Motorguy...I've got a post on my phantom black + carb optics and 21" black RS 7 wheels with pics. You should see it! It'll give you a decent idea of the look of the car, and if you want...I can post better pics of the carbon optics in greater detail.

I love the look of the car, being black, it gives a well suited appeal, the wheels and red calipers give aggressiveness to it. Yours will be a true black...so I'm sure it'll look very well suited up.

Let me know!
