For the 500,000 people that we've gained since then, can we talk a little bit about what that [F7A body kit] is?

TL;DRThe F7A body kit, sold for a veterans' charity, is a cosmetic upgrade making an F7C look like an F7A while keeping the F7C's hardpoints and performance, apart from some geometry-related exceptions.

This was an upgrade we did. If you can't afford a Ferrari or a Porsche or something, you can get a Ferrari body kit that you put over your Honda so it looks like it's that car. It was essentially that for the Hornet, and we did it for a veterans' charity back in, I want to say, 2014. And it basically makes your F7C look like an F7A.

They'll still have the hardpoints of the F7C. They'll still have the performance of the F7C.

Except where geometry defies performance, which is in some areas. If you remember Dan Gheesling, the community ambassador on TNG, he actually helped put together the post about the charity thing, and he did the fiction behind it, because he was here. He wanted to see how we did community management, and that was the first time we got to meet him, and it was fun. He did a good job writing.
