Cool.....this will warm up my wiring skills which haven't been used in a long time and will soon be used again as i think sound system is my next mod.
I keep thinking about adding power but nothing seems to be enough except for forced induction and i'm just not that used to dealing with that stuff. Although i've got a line on a used S/C right now that i'm still thinking about. Dont know if i have the balls to go down that road though.

A couple pics from the local Cars-n-Coffee Saturday morning.
(PS---i really need to stop relying on my cell camera for pics)
First time i see one of these in person
I've seen (mostly heard) this beastly Gallardo around town.
THis one doesnt get as much attention parked next to an Aventador but it sure would at the track.
The loudest, fastest revving one on the lot (yes more than the Lambo's). This thing is a caged animal.
There were quite a few of these lying around. This one in particular flew by me on its way there.
And of course i had to finish with some Acura hotness.
I should've taken more pics but was in a hurry that day.

Gorgeous shots...wow, HATE what they did with that GTR. LOVE the Mercedes though...that thing looks beastly.
Your car is looking great, man. Don't regret getting rid of the tint? It does look very clean without it. I thought the 8" Aspecs don't have that little lip around the edge...hmm...gotta look at mine now.

Those C63s are loud as fawk stock, I can only imagine what a modded one sounds like.

Wassap meng. So far i really do not regret getting rid of the tint. TO be honest what sparked removing the tint is that i always loved how the car looked with the windows down BUT every time parked it and walked away it didnt look as good. THen i saw a nice car without tint and realized that's what i needed. I wanted it to look just as good to me (walking to/from it) than it looks to others while driving around with the windows down. Every now and then i meet my wife somewhere to eat or for drinks and on the way home i ask her to drive my car so i can follow her and check out the car. It really helps when i'm on the fence with a mod because then i finally see how it looks out and about.
My pics dont do it justice but it really does look better without the tint. I also dont miss them right now because of the weather...hopefully when the summer blistering heat comes around i still feel the same.
Yup, the 8.5 dont have the lip.....the 8.0 do have the lip.
PS-----i must admit i am really, really considering getting a supercharger. That decision is really consuming alot of my spare time as i'm researching it every chance i get. I finally paid of the car this year and i have the Ridgeline so this would be the best time to do something like that. BUT i am a hands on guy and i like to tinker with the car but i am definitely not a full blown mechanic so i'm nervous. I'm not looking for drag strip, tire schreding performance. Just a good boost and some nice whine. Not sure if i have the cojones to do it. Every day i get closer to a decision though.

Damn MAS, I'd love to see an Aventador....

So i just spent some time chatting with the coolest millionaire I've ever met. And the guy invited my wife and i too see his car collection. The collection includes 3 cars with over 1000 hp including Lambo Gallardo,Viper and a 911. Besides those other notable cars would be the 600 hp supercharged Vette, Aston Martin, SL 650..... and many, many more (over 80 cars). I saw pics of all of them. I hope we really get to see them. Of course if we get too go i will be talking a bunch of pics (not cell phone pics).

So i texted the guy yesterday and he said for us to keep in contact this week so next weekend we can coordinate to see his collection. So hopefully this coming weekend we should be heading out there and checking them out. As promised i will be taking many non-cell phone pics if this actually happens. For those who love old muscle cars i saw many pics of those too so i'll make sure to take pics of those as well.
In the mean time here a quick pic of my kids right after a bath yesterday:
And a solo shot of my youngest. He's got a life of mods to go but so far he's developing nicely.:

You know what? Your car does look really clean without tint. Thanks for the reviews...I know what you mean about the supercharger, too...but I think if I plop that kinda money and time down...I'd pick a different platform to start with. Plus, I don't have another daily driver .
Either way, your cars look amazing...of the trucks I see, I love how the Ridge drives and looks...my father in law has one.

Update Time:
-Millionaire Car Collection turned out to be a bust. I knew it was too good to be true. After a couple text exchanges i never heard back. Too bad.
-Next update pics will probably be of a couple boxes with a bunch of metal and plastic stuff inside......oh, baby....big step, wish me luck!
