    Thank you gents for the replies. Those were my pics. I tend to not impose on owners while taking pics, but knew this was a very special 250 GT. There is some history here that needs telling.

    I commend the owner for bringing it to this venue, this is a car that I think tells a story that is yet untold.

    The shop is fairly new and is owned by one of our former customers, who is in the music industry himself and for some reason has some crazy deal with Forgiato. We use to do Gucci's cars until this new shop opened up and I THINK he might be a partner in it as well. I agree with you guys though, that is one of the ugliest set of wheels I've seen

    That yellow 458 sure looked good. At first. What a shame.

    Has to be a deal, a professional wouldn't let him make a fool outta himself like that. Are you with the shop that did the white 458? If so great job! Glad he kept it stock but different.

    I'm at a different location, but I can tell you that Sean has been talking about doing wheels on it, just doesn't know what he wants yet. He has wheels on every other car he owns, and they are all very tastefully done. He's not a gaudy type of guy when it comes to his cars.

    Those wheels look great on the R8. I like custom wheels when they look natural on a particular car, and to my eyes the R8 is successful as they both complement the looks and improve performance. Big difference between a serious performance wheel upgrade vs. "hey look at me" bling wheels.

    I think some Novitec multi piece would look good on the white 458...white centers chrome lip and black Novitec lights.....that would be sick.

    I won't be much help on opinions for mods or wheels on a 458 because I just don't like it. Don't care for the looks. Garrett should leave his 458 stock and Gucci should take his 458 to the city of fist pumping, dark tans, spiked hair, ed hardy clothes, gold diggers and horribly modded exotics. MIAMI lol DONE!!

    SirRobbins, I'm sorry but to me Gucci's 458 is hot, & I'm not just saying that because I listen to his music....There is a way to color coordinate without being gaudy/rice/tacky/flashy, and I think gucci is right on the edge, it's not hideous but it's not the best looking 458 out there....

    If I'm not mistaken, that Maserati has a Miami Dolphins plate on it to match the rims.

    Yeah. Everyone has diff personal taste. I used to live in Rice/Outrageous mods country. FLORIDA. I thought i would escape coming up here. lol I didn't say they were flashy or anything, just better off in an enviroment where alot of people have done the same thing. Horrible up here though. Rims honestly don't bother me that much on exotics. It's when I see people puttin bodykits and spoilers on them!!! Have a great day Elijah!

    I won't be there this month. Everyone has their own tastes, so if you like it, it's cool by me.

    Yep, the Dolphins logo was so small I didn't even notice what color it was though.

    Not saying that she isn't single - but just because she doesn't have a ring doesn't mean she doesn't have a husband - or wife for that matter!!

    I saw it in person yesterday and I realized the wheels are orange not red and the color is champagne not brown....So it's really not that awful in person....
