Awesome car, enjoy it in good health! That is a very nice looking house, I would be perfectly content having a GT-R (or your old M3 ) and living there!

I will post upmsome more pics later this week. Thanks for the compliments everybody. I am going to bring the car in for the performance optimization service tomorrow if possible. They check the tuning of the engine and adjust the alignment to my liking. After that it goes tomthe tint shopnto have the windows re tinted. They have 3% limo tin on them now. It's like driving in a black box or with blinders on. After that, I'll take som better pics.

Lol yea a veyron getting to 60 in 2.5 seconds and 100 in under 6 I think and it weighs over 2 tons makes my head explode!

Whenever I see that thing on top gear and you see it racing the plane it doesnt look like its going THAT fast.

Duno how the continental gtss, was that the one on top gear? I think so. I dont remember how quick that thing launched though.

Ohh and OP did you ever track the M3 one those tracks your friends and you rent out?
