Congrats on the purchase. I have driven one of the early 5 speed models and it was impressive for its age. Gsteg, I think all you need is a flashpro.

the usual, everything is delayed because of sema. everyone and their mother say their cars are going to sema so have to be "done" first by 10/28. but fact is maybe 10% of them are real sema cars.

Damn, so SEMA ruined my prediction. Thought you'd have that thing modded in less than a month!

Hey Henry, email what options I should get on an S550.

lol i wish so too. blame all those "sema cars" for scamming their way in front of me. some of them don't even come close to the level i did on my previous cars, and i never consider my cars sema worthy already

finally got some stuff done and took some pics. no teaser, not a fan of it, so here are some quick shots. car is clean like showroom now, tinted (much needed privacy), dropped, and wheels put on. just random pics, maybe pro shots to come later.

um... i need to figure out what's next, if at all...
