I swear I thought the same thing but I looked at it in detail and I'm all but certain it's a real photo. But yes, I agree - it's sick!

I have a pretty high res photo of it that looks way better. I need to fix my flickr setting so it stops 'shrinking' high res photos upon import.

That GTR is nice, talk about a wide-body kit though, I think my college apartment was smaller than that

Why don't you just save and skip the M3 Brian and just get a GT-R instead

I personally don't have anything against (good) photoshopped images in here - the one you posted was fantastic. The only reason I asked if it was real is because I wanted to know if it was real. Not for any other reason. Its a car, and its a photo.

Alright guys...I think I will say this now: Check before you post. We're getting way to many reposts.


Part of this is attributed because of the post-rate in here. I am all for the enthusiasm some of you have for sharing nice pics but given the "frenzy/fervor" you're going at, there's a nice percentage that are images that have been posted already.

Case in point: CCColts, that retro-Ferrari...I posted the set.


So, please check the previous pages or I'll be going around and deleting posts.

Sorry, not trying to come across as a thread-Mao (I'm ...so, not a Nazi)...

I agree with you but I have a few points as well. First I always check the last 5 pages of this thread before posting anything. There is only so far back you can check in a 55 page thread without it taking your entire day. Not to mention if you try searching the thread for the file name it might not be found cause it could be renamed or hosted on a different site. I search the last 5 this time. I missed it by 1 since you post was on the 6th page. Normally 5 pages is enough to cover a good amount of time say a week or two but right now 5 pages only covered 9 days since all large amount of posting recently. I also even checked the Ferrari thread for those pics and none were found. You also only posted one front shot but deleted interior and rear shots. No hard feelings at all just my

Oh, none at all...wasn't trying to make an example of you. I mean, I'm open for suggestions here because I'd rather err on the side of enthusiasm than the odd repost here and there.

But, just had to put it out there with my previous post.
