It has a high gloss epoxy floor, which is a bitch to keep clean in the winter here. But yes, I am a bit particular when it comes to certain things -- first thing I did after closing on this house was order a full custom closet/storage that will hopefully be installed in a few weeks.

Car Love Thread

Not a wallflower color…I like something a little louder in a sports car/fun car. A little more subdued for daily drivers.
Picked up from dealer…didn’t have a chance to post yesterday.
Kind of a love it or hate it color … Python Green

Just picked up a 2020 GTR 50th anniversary edition in the bayside blue color. Took it straight to the shop for a full ppf and ceramic coat, and took off the vinyl stripe that come on 50th’s. Man does this thing pull… had it for just a day now since it’s been back, but here are some iPhone pics I’ve gotten.

Thank you and yes I do plan on a couple. I had the shop install an Armytrix catback and the clear corners while it was getting ppf. I also want to do the full bolt on w/ ecutek tune, but wanna get used to the stock power before I go 650 to the wheels. Prob do a couple more little aesthetics mods too, but nothing too crazy. Wanna keep it looking stock with just the bolt on’s for the most part. Maybe get some wheels….

Thank you! Bayside blue is such a ridiculous color an now I kinda match my wife’s x7 haha. I was so impressed with the raw power this car produces and it’s exactly what I was looking for with a weekend car. Having 4 kids the backseats in the back are a huge plus. Here’s a couple of pics of the wife’s m60i

Since I have two young kids and now live in the mountains I needed a family car and this is the perfect car for me at the moment. With the roof box this thing handles tons of ski equipment, mountain bikes, you name it. And once it’s out of warranty this can be tuned into an absolute monster.

For longer trips we take the wife’s Alpina XB7. Unbelievably comfortable and reasonably peppy.

Just wish I had a bigger garage so I could get a two seater just for me. After being in Manhattan for 20 years I need to make up for lost time.

Thanks for sharing love how there is casually an EB110 and CGT in the back getting no attention. That sage green 959 is sublime, they sound incredible in person.
