I frequently troll this forum but I haven't ever posted. I took delivery of an 818c exactly a month ago, and I figured I would make a post. Happy to be building one.

Go Dad Don't Know Nothin About Da 818!
this can be moved to the build thread section
If you've been watching this forum you know that we are welcoming and friendly so don't let GoDad's comment dissuade you from posting. I agree with Wallace that it looks like you are making good progress. What are your plans? Street only or some tracking? Engine? Any "extras" planned so far?
Have fun!
818S/C : Chassis #25 with 06 WRX 2.5 turbo, ABS, cruise, PS, A/C, Apple CarPlay, rear camera, power windows & locks, leather & other complexities. Sold 10/19 with 5,800 miles.
Mk3 Roadster #6228 4.6L, T45, IRS, PS, PB, ABS, Cruise, Koni's, 17" Halibrands, red w/ silver - 9K miles then sold @ Barrett-Jackson Jan 2011 (got back cash spent).
Plans are for having it as an HPDE car for my family members and myself. I will register it and take it out on the occasional night. I'm lucky enough to work at a body shop so I think I will be able to make it look pretty, if not I'll just sticker bomb it. I really want to run numbers, but I don't want to look like a dork.
started with an 03 wagon
it will run a stage 2 tune
