Impressive. I don't care what anyone says about your house, choice or age. Your home looks beautiful and your cars are as well (kid too). Congratulations, you have done extremely well for yourself, and everyone should be asking you how, not putting you down for having it.

doesn't BBS make rims that look like that too? There's a guy with a silver/grey e55 wagon on the pictures thread (about a year or so ago) who has BBS' that look like those RAC's on his ride. Is the difference in the depth of the lip or is there something else I'm missing?

what's the picture of the M5 doing on his posts then? is he another phony on these boards (surprise surprise - not) or is it one of those fancy honda plastic bodykits? or perhaps i made a mistake and was thinking about another poster.

This thread is ridiculous. To start, love2ski, congratulations. You have a beautiful car collection, house and daughter, all of which you should be - and I'm sure you are - grateful for. Your wealth is yours (and quite impressively earned at such a young age might I add) and as long is it is enjoyed in good health and happiness, there is no other way it should be spent.
Of course everyone has his or her idea of how money should be spent and thats fine. Opinions are opinions. But as pmb600 said, what happened to the civility of this thread? Butchen, you are clearly a successful guy in the field of real estate. I am familiar with the field as that my sister works for one of the largest lenders in the United States and closes million-dollar loans for breakfast. What I dont understand is WHY ON EARTH you are acting like such a child? Real Estate is a networking business. It is about relationships and connections. I don't care if I had all of the money on Earth, I would never, ever buy a home from you simply from how I have see you respond to criticism in this thread. I am 19 years old for God's sake and even I am bewildered. Saying someone drives a Honda as an insult? As if that has anything to do with his character or personal virtues? I agree that you have been getting lots of trouble by other posters for the house you are posting pictures of and they have come at you with just as childish remarks as your own. But nevertheless, if you are going to let it be known that you are realtor on these public forums, I think it would be wise of you to act with a little more decency. Good luck in all of your endeavors and whether you want to take this with offense or with an open mind is up to you.

Great post. Thank you for showing everyone that not all 19/20 year olds are idiots and that some of us are mature!

Not trying to ****... I just thought the house was ugly... kind of like an S65 painted light pink with a green marble wing... that's hot.
PS I love my honda... and hopefully I'll love my ML63, powered by V-tec, that comes next week too... if only I could move out of this crappy *** rental apartment... maybe next year after I get promoted to Senior **** Pusher.

My friend, I drive a 2004 E55. I am by no means on a different page. What I took notice to, though, is the fact that my demeanor is illustrative of someone 10 years your senior. This is not a forum for business? Then why are you posting pictures of this "beautiful home" that is great for "any benz owner"? You are in real estate, and you are all the same. I attend the Marshall School of Business at USC so I consider myself well informed. I am not going to bother trying to defend myself against your comments but what you have just done is exactly what I am talking about. You can save yourself from bragging to me, a simple 19 year old, of your financial accomplishments. Please understand that given the fact that I have family connections with people such as, oh, lets say, Rick Hilton, your resume is of no interest to me. I am through associating with you, and I leave you with two words of advice that should never be given to you by someone my age...
Grow Up.

I've worked with Jeff Gordon in the past he loves German sports cars in fact he has a deal with BMW that every year they give him a free custom built car. The last car I saw him driving was a white BMW 740i with 3 piece BBS wheels; this was a few years back. I have not seen him in a Mercedes, but the S65 that is a car for a driver like he is.

Sorry about hijacking your thread.
Still love the car as well as the color combo!
Noticed it was at the shop, what issues did you have?

The is thread is exactly that,a topic where somebody is proud to show their new car off.It just amazes me how people cant just sit back and nejoy another person's fortune and happiness.Instead they jump in and ridicule the guys way of living and his future.
I think that car is amazing and so is his house! Congrats on being able to live the life your living,a happy one.

Thank you for tuning into this weeks episode of "As the MB World Turns".
My God!!!! I have been reading this and many other forums for years as an enthusiast of all fine cars. I have often enjoyed a lot of the healthy ribbing and banter that goes on amongst the various car fan camps. After having read this entire thread up to this point, I had to register just so I could post this question. When did this forum become a poorly scripted episode of your run of the mill Soap Opera?
Love2skiutah, you have a beautiful home, car collection and what I can only assume is a very happy and fulfilling life, personally and professionally. Congratulations, may you and yours continue to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Touché, point taken. No, not currently. Have owned Mercedes, BMW and Audi's until recently. I am currently driving a 06 Lexus GS430 (I know, blasphemy) after having many frustrated owning experiences due to reliability. Nothing major, like engine failure etc. Just tons of little things, constantly having lights go off on your dash for one reason or another. I continue to admire and follow the Germans in anxious anticipation of improved reliability. I hope to be back in one soon, the new S63 is going to be extremely tempting. LOVE the S65, but it is going to be out of my price range for a while.
