That looks OUTSTANDING! Great job. Vanilla Moose is on my shopping list. Very nice reflection shot - I always struggle with those. Either out-of-focus on the reflected background, or too much orange peel in the shot.

A big on the detail. Very sharp car too.

Great job on the details and pics guys. One of the ultimate tests is to get a reflection pic using the sun. It will show any scratches and swirls in the paint.

This pic is my favorite.

Damn Patrick, all I can say is "SWEEEET". How does the 2180 compare to the UPP? And is that something new to the aresenal?

Musta been one happy owner. Knows where to take it, so he's someone that cares.

Parked next to a silver one at the post office. That is one ugly overweight car. Kind of like the massive Benz S class 2 door.

The BMW of my dreams is the old 840, bet it could be had for $15,000. Seemed to do zero to a hundred in the time it took me to get to sixty. My mechanic said the thing is so complex, would spend that much on repairs.

Thanks guys....!
Sweet, those wheels are brushed aluminum, Im not sure how Im going to maintain those....sheeeeeeesh. This owner always go "full throttle" on his vehicle amenities....He just ordered the M6.....
Danny, the 2180 is "nice". I dont think its as wet looking as the UPP, but its easy to use. Im depleting my samples from FK1. Will I reorder? hmmm, im not sure, UPP is really my go to. I havent even tried the VOC upgrade yet, but from what FS tells me, its even better then "what Im currently using".......
5o9, you dont care for the 6 series? I think they're beautiful...The 850 is nice, course anything with a V12 is nice.........
Jluk, thanks!! 2 997's this weekend, then a TL in Hollywood.....
