So I took a little drive to find the right car with the right options.

@13COBRA did a nice job finding the car within trading distance. No such car closer to me in MN other than the one he found in Wichita, KS. The Velocity Blue, Auto, 401A and PP1 is a rarer bird apparently.

15 Ecoboost was a good steed, someone will be lucky to have her.

Hit rain on the way back, so you're off the hook for the dusty rims Nick!

Finally pulled in the driveway.

Congrats. I really like that blue. I would also have to have the PP 1 with the A10 trans

Congrats! Great color choice. Definitely not a color I've seen yet. I like it. The black wheels contrast the paint nicely. Enjoy!

Temp this morning was 20F, looked at climo, average low doesn't get above 45F until June, LOL. Think I may pick up a set of rims with a high performance all season radial on. Put the high performance summer radials on when June rolls around.

Decided I didn't want to drop a small fortune on wheels, so went to Tirerack to see if they had any closeout wheels that I liked. Found a set of Advanti DST Optimo close out wheels with factory sizing (19x8.5 & 19x9.5). Matched them to a set of 255/40ZR-19 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ & 275/40ZR-19 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+

So, I'll run these for a couple months in the spring and couple months in the fall. I still have my set of Blizzaks on takeoff GT rims I ran on my ecoboost for winter. The stock summer tires will get to run from June to September. 3 sets of tires and rims, LOL.
