That BBi looks hot!!!!!!!!!!

Mike, do you have any high-res pics of it?

 

Justin, I sure do. I have hundreds of photos of that Boxer.
Here is my gallery from that event. http://photobucket.com/albums/b143/TexasMike430/8-20-05%20Austin%20Breakfast/
They aren't high-res, but if you want some high-res copies, just PM me and tell me which ones you want.

 

I really need to change my profile name, people really will think I'm called Justin.

Thanks alot Mike, those will be enough....just need something I can look at if I ever get a Boxer and need inspiration in terms of looks. Great choice of wheels IMO.

 

Yeah, I was wondering about that. I didn't think your name was Justin.

 

Awesome day! I finally got to ride in a super car today.
