Each of of those cars are sweet as hell, but IMO the Lex looks VERY out dated next to CLS for example.

Damn Derrick you're doing it big I remember when you first got the Dronnels for the first gen. Now you have a nice wheel shop going. Man you have the nicest 7 series ive seen. Original color and mods. You stayed away from the ugly Hamann kit. everyone picks. Man and the rest of the cars are just killer. to your great wheel vendor who takes the time to treat each customer as a friend instead of a quick sale. I cant wait till you open a performance shop ill have to find a way up to the NJ area

Derrick,

If you had a choice of only one car to keep from the line up you brought, which would it be?

MERCEDES CLS55
MERCEDES CL55
BMW 745LI
BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT

Yeah, I'm sure that many wonder why we have such a diverse mix of brands across such a wide price range.

To put it simply, we got our start with the Lexus community so we will always maintain a Lexus for promotional use. I find that in business, many people grow and overlook the foundation that facilitated said growth. Lexus is our foundation. So yes although a 20k Lexus looks odd next to a 100k MB and a 175k Bentley, you can expect to consistently see that from D2

Also I think its important to demonstrate our competence level across different price ranges. Its the most odd thing but cars like the Bentley actually alienate people because they assume "well they can't do anything for my 15k car since they do 175k cars", so its good to show that D2 can do it all from 20k to 200k and do it well.

In all honesty with the current VIP craze that's gaining steam, that "dated" Lexus gets a VERY fair share of attention and pics at shows! Lol

I have no idea, these cars are like children since I researched and worked and all of them so that's sort of like asking "which kid would you keep out of your 3?"


LOL

That is a great lineup of cars. The way it was setup it looks like it would be at home at the Sema

show as well. Any plans to do this at Sema as well?
