    Oh my...you had Webb Bland shoot your car.... :eek: Amazing shot of a beautiful GranTurismo.


    LOVE IT! I'm very biased though; I have a 2009 MINI Cooper S; pepper white w/black top. Love the old classics!

    The Laurel editions look great; love what you've done with it. :cool:

    I had a 2008 Mini Cooper S. I loved it to death. I didn't like the Pepper White color so I bought a perfectly equipped dark gray one and painted it the first week I owned it :)

    Carrara White to match some others in the garage. The color was fantastic and I miss the car. Needed the S4 to haul kids to school though. The new owner took 2 seconds to buy it from me when they saw it in real life.

    That looks fantastic!!! Would be interesting to see it parked next to a pepper white one to see the difference in color. I like the black hood-scoop as well; I've been thinking about changing mine to black, but wasn't sure how it would look. The new owner of that MINI is very lucky; great looking car!

    That is actually the carbon fiber hood scoop. It also had the mirror covers and rear hatch handle in CF as well.

    Just park the pepper white next to any white porsche :)
    Huge difference for sure.

    I originally wanted the CF hood scoop, mirror caps, and trim (grill trim, headlight rings, door handles, etc) but then I realized how expensive those little goodies are! :eek: Maybe a CF wrap will have to suffice....

    The mirror caps weren't great. The scoop and hatch handle really looked good. I don't remember them being but a few hundred. My memory sucks tho.


    @mikeR. Thank you.

    I wanted a horse paddock for that shot and Atomic 80 added the photo skills.

    It's called 3000 Horses in a field :)

    ^ Great cars! but is there really any question in the morning whether you are going to drive the 996 or the G35?

    Thanks :). The G35 coupe is surprisingly fun to drive, and it's value just thrills me. It serves a few purposes beyond the 996tt : (1) anytime I have 3-4 people in the car (2) any time I need reasonable amt of trunk space (The 996's trunk is tiny, much smaller than the 360's), (3) rain and the 996 was recently cleaned, (4) anytime I have to park in a sketchy area, (5) long highway trips to visit family I usually take the G35 for a combo of reasons like trunk, better gas milage, quieter inside, fantastic stereo with Ipod, more leg room.

    Anyway, I prefer to have a few choices on what to drive rather than just one "better" car like a Scud that would be brilliant 70% of the time and then a PITA 30% of the time. For now, it's easy to do this also since I rent a great apartment for cheap and can get as many individual garages I want for $50 a month (about half off regular price since we smooze with the leasing managers and offered to pay rent in 6 month blocks). I'm not sure where I'll be living in the next 2-3 years, so have no interest to buy a house now and love where I'm at, especially the amenities like 3 pools, 2 gyms, and as many garages as I need :). I'm concerned about being able to find a house with 4 + garages ;).
