The cars produced by The Little Car Company are truly extraordinary! Do you have a picture of the exterior of their Bugatti?

Lovely looking Rolls Royce

Not without family, which I will not post, sorry.

I’m not in love with any of the Raptor wheel offerings from the factory TBH. I’m looking for something forged with a bead lip, reasonably priced and good looking. FP Forged has a nice Y spoke offering I probably go with.

What did you go with?

A bit conservative, but that's generally my speed. I like the black wheels on this paint color. I also got a pretty smoking price on these wheels. There is another Ford dealership just down the road from me that does a lot of custom work - so they can even more so overcharge for the vehicle. They took these straight of a new delivery before their pimp job. The wheels came with fresh meat, $1500 for wheels and tires. I still have my OE wheel and tire set.

Currently obsessed over the Superformance Daytona Coupes. I couldn't daily drive a Cobra (roadster only, optional hard-top looks dumb) & the GT40 won't fit in my garage. They're quite rad. To quote Ferris Bueller: "It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up." I guess I just need "the means" now!

Based on your avatar, I would have suspected you'd choose Lexus or BMW (see other thread).

Hahahah! My father has been a devout LS driver since the car's inception. I'm not really into the luxury ocean liner-type cars. They're neat, but it's not for me. Same thing with Daytonas (watches, not my future Daytona Coupe)... although... if I get one, do I need to have the other so they can be friends?

I finally managed a drive in my car, first time since 2016!!

No, 911s go better with Daytonas. EVERYONE knows that!

Couple recent additions….
Fiancé loves the GWagon so I handed it over, she loves her 4 series as well. One more spot left in the attached garage.
The detached garage is full without adding any lifts.
Picked up recently….new Panamera, ‘24 392 Wrangler, and replaced the GT3 with another vintage 911.
Had the new RR Sport briefly but we weren’t driving it much having the GWagon and Mercedes GLB. Replaced it with the Panamera. The GT3 is an awesome car, but reached for the Ferrari keys most every time I wanted a crazy fast, spirited drive. I loved having a vintage Porsche before, so I found a beautifully restored ‘71 911E. Came with black Fuchs, just replaced those with more desirable (IMO) polished Fuchs.

Very nice Richard, almost full house! Nice contrast of new (Panamera) vs. old / vintage Porsches in the garage with the vintage 911

New wheels and tires for the 24 392 or did you swap those off your last one you traded? Either way it looks great! How do you like finally having a power seat in a Wrangler? As a big and tall guy I was a little disappointed they didn’t use the re-engineering of the seat to add power to also allow the seat to go lower and farther back, but I guess there’s always the next redesign lol.

I took the wheels tires and leveling kit off of the previous 392 and swapped it onto the new one. The power seat is excellent! Provides just a little bit more flexibility to get a bit more comfortable than the previous seats.

None are mine, unless you see a rogue Maserati in the background.

Couldn’t help but notice the plates are from Molsheim, I’m think with them both having the same parent company they must have some access to the Bugatti owned display cars. Love the blue carbon look.







Quite a few Huracans, a few Aventadors and Ferraris as well as McLarens.

Richard - is that paint original on the vintage Porsche?

Nice!

I went with Method 703s. Got a 25% off deal with a Raptor buy group.
