TJ, i always wake up on the wrong side of the bed, im a slav. 

i forgot the rear screen had the org logo, so being bi-curious (as the southpark team would say) is acceptable!

that 123 is absolutely awesome, the 107 pretty slick too. however, i would have to argue the torana arches on a 116 (maybe if you colour coded the bolts would be better) dont look flash, they just look a bit cheap and tacked on (like the whole slr 5000!) in comparison to the other cars which blend more cohesively.  then again, im sure they dont cost an arm and a leg

Those BBS rims look great. What size are the rims and tires?

Where can I find a set of BBS rims like these?

You need a Tardis... and be able to speak German... methinks...
