Cool Few Phone Pics B7

Hey guys. Some of you may remember me from last season. I'm usually more active in the spring and summer months on the forums. I just snapped a couple quick shots of the car while I was taking some pics of an exhaust I'm selling over in the classifieds. This season I'm looking for a little more power so I'm having the heads ported and polished that I was able to purchase from a forum member here. I'll also be doing the intake manifold and the throttle actuator. Crazy? Probably, but its what I like to do. Nice 2 be back I'll keep you posted in a seperate thread.

Maybe later I'll take some night shots later with the fog & puddle lights on. When that stupid red truck is not parked there you can see the NYC skyline quite nicely

Car looks great, but you're whacky for dropping that kind of coin on performance mods for a V6. It'll never be fast, no matter how much you throw at it. With the money spent, you could've gotten an E55 by now. But, at least you have originality and exclusivity, I suppose. I applaud the effort, but yeah....you're whacked in the head.

Aesthetically pleasing, though.

The Brabus light show. Always a crowd pleaser.

Thanks for your thoughts, I hear where your comming from. I personally wouldn't want another rwd car, and I like the fact that while also looking nice this car is fully functional in the winter and all year round. It would just be nice if it made a little more power then its currently making so thats what I'm after. People have suggested a 500 swap but I don't know what is involved with that and I don't want the headache of mismatched vin numbers and actual mileage debates when it comes time for sale so this seems the only logical route. Overall though, I just enjoy that its something nobody else has.
