Looks good. I love black 1st gens.
Missing ECS? (Look at front shock towers)

Thanks at the moment the wait is absolutly driving me up the wall (beggining and end of the wait are always the worst) at the moment I am almost tempted to fly to vancouver and drive it all the way back. Too bad that in january the hiways are going to be so shitty and if something happens to go wrong in driving i would be hooped :(

ECS is missing becuase the suspension has been upgraded not too sure to what exactly should be interesting to see when it shows up. It would be awsome if it were a nice set of coilovers, but just have to wait and see.

Packing it away for the winter? :)
It's probably driving you nuts because it's almost here! Wait until it's in your garage calling your name all winter! :P

Never driven a RHD before.
Looks like the pedals are the same layout (gas right foot)?
How about the shift pattern? will first gear be top right (where our 5th gear is), or top left like normal?

RHD's shift locations are the same as LHD... :)
Thank god! Could you imagine being in first.. getting confused and dropping it into reverse!

every thing on a RHD car is the exact same as a LHD other than the fact that the wipers and turn signal switches are switched. As for parking it i don't think I am going to this winter, the car I have right now is pissing me off so I will be selling my mx6 when this thing gets here and drive the GTO this winter. I know not the best idea but oh well one winter won't kill it, and i will be looking to pick up a light truck or somthing for around 3k next winter.

I've been driving mine on comp T/A's this winter- a bunch of slipping around the first time I drove it in the snow, but I got used to it quickly. (even beat a Hummer off the lights one day:p )
btw, welcome and congrats on the car, joeblow-I tried to picture myself driving a rhd, would take some getting used to...
