It appears to have steel brakes. I hope so. The last thing I want is the CF disks- they are ridiculously expensive to replace.
I checked and do have all the goodies in the back, including the pump. Thanks for the heads up.
I also found a set of summertime floor mats. There are rubber ones installed right now, but some nifty black carpets are in the back.

Edit - forgot to add - the tyre goo is only for a (very) temporary repair, enough to maybe get you to a shop to buy a new tyre, as you will need a new tyre after using it because it destroys the tyre even if all it had was a small/simple nail/screw hole in the middle of the tread.
For a simple nail/screw hole puncture a much better solution is to use a tyre plug kit such as this one from Stop and Go: https://www.ebay.com/itm/17502925009...3ABFBM7K2zieZi
I have that exact kit and have used it twice now with great results, both times several years ago. I never bothered to get a "proper" repair done and the tyre is still going strong.

After quite a bit of practice, I'm getting better and getting in the car. Getting out is all that difficult, for some reason.
My next problem is the floor. It seems to have a dip in the middle. I wear size 13 (US) shoes, so my foot fits in there kind of diagonal (as it is with all cars I drive), and there is a dip in the floor in the middle where my heel slides down into. I have the rubber floor mats installed because it has been raining, and they are extra slippery when my shoes are wet. I wish the floor was flat.
Is there a way to turn of traction control completely? The two modes seem to be traction control on, and traction control race mode. I was testing the limits of the car yesterday with it in race mode while the road was wet and I can tell that it still is on a little bit. It's not a huge deal, but I was just curious if it ever went completely off.
