Traded in my Mini for a........















Ordered this bad boy for a customer of mine... $105k MSRP. Had to pick it up from the dealer in NJ and bring it back to my place, and i'll be taking it to deliver to his home shortly.

I've driven more expensive cars than this, but I don't know what it is about this car, but I was a little scared to drive it...I was EXTRA careful.

Not sure if I'd own it, I would probably be more content just staring at it all day long..

edit: I take that back. I'd definitely rock it.

omfg sex.

I don't know why but I really like the 911 interior. Suede in all the right places, minimalistic and aesthetically appealing.
