I'm not here to fight with you guys.

If you look at the license plates and the stickers in the window of the 2 other cars in the pic that should imply something.

Depends on the weather
Yesterday, I went to pick up more paint from advanceauto and I know most of the guys in there. So I was showing one of them what I have been doing in my engine bay and he couldn't believe the difference. He's seen my car go from stock to how it is now and he is amazed. So as we're looking under the hood and just talking, people start walking over and walking around my car and then asking if they can take pictures and how "bad@ss" the car looks, etc. So, I shut the hood and then they are like oh no, we need pictures of that too, it looks so good.

I felt really good...a little bit of cleaning and work in the engine bay goes a long way.

Wherever it is, it's a great looking car IMO. Generally I'm not a fan of the 22's and a drop just from a ride quality standpoint but I do like the way those cars look. That car is well executed and clean.

I am hoping to see a w221 with black wheels in person as I am looking to possibly buying a set of wheels in black. When it's all clean like that, it looks good.

The problem with black wheels is that when the tires aren't dressed they look gray or brown by comparison. But clean and dressed they do look good.

I'm in New York, I dress casually, blue jeans, Ralph Lauren polos and my car gets a ton of attention. Car is a gold digger magnet. I know it definitely helps that I'm young, tall, Italian and good looking and I don't mind saying it. Anywhere I go it gets noticed and brings some serious respect. It makes me feel good, I admit it.

Dude, aren't you in Rochester? Please. You'd get the exact same results with a Trans Am and a Members Only jacket.

What's up with the hate? So much for a fun thread...So women can be confident and we as men can't? Big difference between stroking ones ego and being confident. Monroe is not a red neck town by any means and is 35 minutes away from Newburgh. KJ is a seperate village.

It sounds like you're an expert at stroking your own ego. Not hating on you....just laughing at your Jersey Shore "confidence".

Sorry man, Try not to take it personally, but when I read your self assessment the thing that immediately popped into my head was this:


Dave detests violence but he may be up for a Dance-Off.
