    Does anyone have a pic of Adam Bereush's (sp) 512bb? He had some custom 17" wheels installed that looked incredible. Personally I don't like the Compomotives. They just look too heavy and kit-carish.

    Beautiful car Gary. I'm jealous.

    Gary,
    Having bought the car sight unseen, were there any surprises?

    Look great Gary. I particularily like the front of the car which is the only view that I will see in my rearview mirror!!. Charlene says hello to Sue.

    Yes, the car is even BETTER than I had imagined. I can't even find one single rock chip anywhere on it! I'm almost afraid of driving it because the body/paint is so pristine, compared to my old 308QV.

    It even still has the original protective shipping plastic on the door sills!

    Congrats Gary - beautiful ride.

    Personally (just my $0.02) I would leave the stock wheels - timeless, classic good looks.

    Sorry, they just DO! :) How do multithousand-dollar 26" spinners look like supercheese on an SUV? Seriously, I'm a fan of clean, chiseled wheels. The Fikse FM5 is one of my favorites, and Adam's wheels looked like the Fikses.

    Gary,
    Until you have a slew of rock chips, you haven't done the car justice.
    Enjoy-it's a beauty.

    Marty, thanks!
    Yep.... I know what you mean... guess I'll just have to buy some touch up paint and learn to deal with it. I already put over 150 miles on the car over the weekend! I don't even have a license plate yet. I had to get a trip permit and will need to try and get it to pass the emissions test this week before I can title it. Here's a shot that a friend took of me driving down I-5 on Saturday!
