Hey, Tommy, with your connections, you should go Gucci in the interior. Have you seen that thread, I think it's in General Discussion about Gucci leather interiors? If I was more techno-savvy, I might actually paste the link there, but since that's not working...

That's true - he already has the slicks on his rims.

BenzE - I saw that thread. It was like a flashback to the 80s. Nasty!

That's from an old Opel GT ad. Some detractors came up with a variation: Nur Fliegen Sind Schoener... (only flies are prettier).

Acutally, pretty and nice can both be translated as 'schoen', so 'flying is nicer' would be the accurate translation for the original.
