AMG GTS
I think it's pretty cool that he is choosing the GTS over an "exotic". Rickie is actually very into automotive / motorcycle stuff and probably can appreciate the car more than many others. Aside from that, I think my Edition 1 looks better than his :-)

don't mind Hyperion... if he owned a GTS he might be a little more positive.










I like Ricky but I think he needs a better set of wheels; what are those things?

Those are optional AMG 5 spokes. I think they actually look good in black, but not in silver.

Oh ok, hadn't see those as an option. I agree, in black they would be better.
