This one was in the garage. Hail broke the windows and started pouring in. Damaged the front half of the hood. About 40-50 dents. Some stretched and broke paint.

Nauman, HARD WIRE THAT PASSPORT NOW! LOL. I hard wired mine in my FX4 with the remote display and button so it sits right by the instrument cluster. So clean.



On another note, I brought my baby over to her new home today. 3 car garage my ass.

I'm pretty sure I've seen this SLS before and even took pics, and it didn't have a plate, but i bet he got a fix it ticket, they are pretty anal about that around here

Could always do what this kid at my high school's dad got. He had BMW (not sure if corporate or the dealer) write a letter that having a front plate blocks engine airflow on their M5. Apparently they keep it in the glove box and it works here in Jersey

I wish I would've taken a pic from the bright side of the car, but the dude was sleeping in the car so I felt kinda awkward

First today I saw, from across an intersection, a Ferrari FF:

The "Photos You've Taken of Exotic/Desirable Cars" Thread-ntwab.jpg

Apologies for the crappy pic - it was all I could get at the time. I DID see it from the side as I turned, and it was definitely an FF because it had the funky hatchback, but I couldn't get a shot of that. First one I've seen in person so I was kinda psyched.

So then we went to Pizzeria Uno's, of all places. Went in, ate, came out, started walking through the parking lot when... wait....... what's.......... THAT?


McLaren MP4-12C





Good day for car-spotting today.

^Probably because they're amongst the very few cars that actually are able to utilize them. I agree though.
