Vic - would love to see pics of the Supras if u have any...always was my dream car when I was in highschool...was very close to getting one, but it just wasn't meant to be...

not too long of a driving history...

1998 Toyota 4Runner Limited
2001 M3 (R.I.P.)
2003.5 M3
2008 M3
2009 Lexus LS460
2011 Toyota Sienna
2012 S550
2013 C63

don't have many good pics of the previous cars...wish I had a pic of the 4Runner, that thing was sweet (tinted, brush guards, customer fiber flass box w/4 12"s, Polk Momo component mid/highs, HIDs, Panasonic Night/Day Head Unit, etc etc)

Raven, I had a Shelby GT 500 before my C63 as well. What was your reasons for selling? I did not like the car at all. Kept for only 2 tanks of gas.
Previous cars:
2011 Shelby GT 500 ( sold for C63)
2007 Cadillac XLR-V ( 1 of 410 made in 2007) Still have
2008 Lexus ES 350 ( wifes ride)
2005 350Z
1999 E55 (still own, one of my most favorite rides)
1969 Chevrolet Kingswood Wagon ( numbers matching 427, lowered on 20" wheels) still own
2001 Mustang Cobra ( supercharged 550 HP)
Many many more, list too long publish....Note my name KARKRZY

Thanks man
The CLK 55 was an awesome car, it was my first V8 and I can tell that this is another world
For sure the C63 is the better car but sometimes I miss my good old CLK 55

I grew up in NYC and cars were not on my radar. I actually still have friends without drivers licenses. My criteria was a car that I could care less about if it got stolen or beat up.

1984 Honda Accord (got broken into twice in one week)
2000 Hyundai santa fe (Total POS) broke down in the Holland Tunnel
2002 Altima 3.5 (I thought this car was a rocket ship)
2007 Merc C230 (reliable)
2008 G35X (This became my new rocket ship)

Current
2011 C63
2012 SLK55

Next
GT-R or C63BS

I bet you're glad to be out of that area. I sure was when I left Newark 6 years ago. I would never head back to that NYC/NJ area.

This goes off topic but to you guys who are living/have lived in new york, is it virtually impossible to own a car there? If i'd move to the states NY would be first on the list. Cali second. I am not however going to give up being a car enthusiast to live somewhere :P yes, they are that important...
