Ha! my accountant actually recommended it - it's a 100% write off being that it's used for advertising and promotion, I was going to get one anyways, but the fact that it counts as less personal income is great!

Perhaps I could get one and convince the IRS that it gets me to the hospital faster

My former accountant.... (actually shot himself purposefully) said I could buy another exotic and place it in my defined benefit plan, show that I was making an attempt to lease or rent it and therefore deduct it. Seemed a bit aggressive for me. Ultimately he had made a few aggressive moves himself and suggested the same for others hence the above act.

Do you have anything to replace the original rims on a G500? All the enthusiasts say DON'T go oversize on these as the suspension is a very old design.

I can build a set for your G500 in factory sizes that's no problem - give me a call.
