I actually saw one the other day as well. It was either in Jacksonville, FL or in Northern VA. I dont remember now... #badmemory

ssjoeboe9

I saw a black one in orlando. it was debadged though. Didnt know what it was other than a big ass BMW

Mercedes>BMW

Fuck the E65, fuck the W220 (2000-2006 S-Class) biggest POS ever. Alpina 7 series? Look for the E38's, quite magical. Joe it's an E65 BMW 7 series from 2002-2008. E38 which was a much better 7 series and practically one of the best BIG BMW 7 series and IMO one of the best cars ever made.

Mercedes>BMW

E65 one of the shittiest BMW's ever made IMO, Checkout this thread on the E38 forum: http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum....php?t=1941236

someone has some strong opinions

benben01

^^ hence we are Acura owners where our opinions don't mean jack since the aftermarket doesn't give a shit

Oh I want to share some feelings too!

I love: peanut mm's, halo, and dinosaurs.

they're arnt as rare as you think.
Ive seen at least 3 different ones in Sugar Land.
one afternoon, I saw two following each other.
and I dont think they were going to the same place

MC MiYoung3269

New Civic's are even uglier in person.... Wheels look like it came off a Kia

PyroDave

I actually really like the new design of the civic, I think Honda did a good job designing the new civic and accord

MC MiYoung3269

I love the new accord but the Civic... no :\

opboarding

I don't think it's all that bad either.

i love peanut mm's. My brother (19), me and his three friends went to a 7-mile fair once and it was pretty ghetto but they said it was good deals, seems like most of the stuff was 'legit'. This hispanic guy was selling 3 packs of peanut mm big bags for $1, I bought $5 worth of bags so 21 bags and I fit about half in my pocket and they also bought some. Best deal ever. I wish I could gone back and got more but im sure his "truckload" (he was selling out of a truck) is probably sold out by now.

ssjoeboe9

the wheels do have a kia-ish feeling.

But I like what they did to the new Optima

Mercedes>BMW

Well my cousin works at KIA and their getting a lot of business

My mom bought a '12 Kia sportage.
its cool!

benben01

Ok kids.. Time for an update.. So right before NYE, I crashed the RX8 on the way to the farmers market. Went in on the turn a bit too hot and exited even hotter and smacked a guard rail and drifted sideway before crashing into ditch.. It was so sad and scary at the same time. Just very lucky and thankful no one was hurt or another cars were involved besides my dumbass... Long story short, the car is totaled but I ended up picking a 2009 GT model with only 9,000 miles on it from an owner who was more anal than I am when it comes to car care and maintenance.. Enjoy the pics..















And the NEW car...

Enjoy!?

enjoy!?!??!?!?

I cant stomach it.

but I do enjoy your new one! sans the color..

benben01

The new one is silver and looks pretty good in the sun crabby. Wait until I am done building it out.. You will like it

^you have great taste in cars and women.
I trust you.

p.s. whats the difference over the GT model?

benben01

Thanks Crabby! The GT is more luxurious with a full leather leather and butt warmers on the perforated leather seats with the driver's being powered and 3 memory settings. Also it has auto on/off xenon headlights, wipers, Blose, Sirius, and sunroof. Otherwise, the drive train is the same as the R3 with the 4.77 rear end and carbon fiber drive shaft. R3 does have Blose and xenons but with EVO X inspired Recaros, Bilstein shocks and uprated springs, 19" forged BBS wheels, different aero bumper, side skirts and a traditional style rear spoiler.

First thing I am doing is pulling the Volks, BBK, rear muffler section, and Recaros out of the old car

P.S. my 2011 RX8 R3 was only 1 of 132 sold in the US... Talk about exclusivity...

Oh, and Im glad you're okay.
looked like a scary out of control front impact

benben01

Yeah it was scary.. Cold tires and questionable road surface didn't help. Just glad to walk away with no injuries

opboarding

Oh man, shit just got real. Glad you're ok. I reallllllly liked the red though

I'm sure this one will turn out just as awesome knowing you!

benben01

Thanks Ryan. Like you, I have car parts scattered throughout my house mostly in the dining area

omg i felt so sick seeing those pics. glad you're okay though benben. that looks like a crazy accident. sad about the car though. was gonna say, make sure you get your wheels back and whatever mods you put on the car before they take it. man i do love that red though. the silver looks normal to me. the red was so stand out-ish.

ed_423

oh man!! thank god you are ok ben sucks about the car though, it was nice! and i never notice the lack of a sun roof on there! too race car i guess. haha
