Perhaps I am missing something.

That said, I say you've got to go with the sidepipes on this car with the current setup you described.

In any event, I am sure it will be a great car.
Stentor,

I thought it a bit odd too!

I ordered the car a few years ago and, to be honest, didn't really know if I would ever get it. The dealer sent me a couple of photos of it, but only from the front and rear. I didn't discover the lack of sidepipe holes until it was off loaded in front of my house last December.
It probably would have cost me as much to send it back as it would to have the holes cut in the body. Besides, where would I have been then? Money back? Place another order and wait a couple of more years? I just looked at it as an opportunity to run whichever configuration I decided to use.
