I've also been tempted by the 730Hp SLR

It's surprising how the housing market has started to slow over the past month or two, seems unusual. I thought you were already out of HS?
Nope, this is my Senior year. When I hit 18 I want to, maybe, get a job at a realtors office or developers office to see how things work then jump into the business. Do you still have the buyer who will give you 130k for your build spot?

What SLR are you talking about? The Brabus one you were talking about a few months ago?

I'm almost 100% sure the market will pick back up in the coming month's. People need a place to live, and the population is not getting any smaller.

Like I said, you're more than welcome to come down sometime and have a "internship" of sorts and I'll show you the ins and outs of the business.

It's not really a build spot anymore... He would of wanted different options/colors. I wouldn't have any trouble selling it and might just let the dealer take car out it for me and give them a "sellers fee"

The MKB SLR... Just released in Japan, we're talking about some major reworking. However, it’s the ugliest thing ever. Brabus for styling

Lol, Well that is the scheme on a grand scale... It's just not as strong as it was in April-August. The market will always be there maybe just not like it was in the past few months. CF is in a bubble right now and the day of reckoning is coming when it's going to burst. I give it another year 1/2.

This summer I may come down, I want to go to Florida anyways. Is the MKB SLR 750k including the car? If not that's one hell of a price to pay.

So what kind of Exhaust are you thinking about for the F430? That will be one mean Ferrari after you're done with it

So, you weren't even planning on coming down for Spring Break

No no no... It's 730 Hp. I can't imagine it being another 300K for just these mods, then again look at the Brabus Price Sheet

I was looking at the EuroTek ECU mostly *HP-512 Ft/Lbs-405* Kreissieg or Capristo, Or just putting in some straight pipes. I can't really justify 8K for an exhaust in some cases when it already sounds great.

Email neal@euroteckmotorsports.com about the exhaust. Neal should have a Kreissieg for your Murcie that sounds sick.

When we were doing a food drive at the park a few weeks ago at the park, a friend of mines dad drove by. He has a Tubi exhaust and everyones jaw dropped. I wish my X5 could do that.

I've already asked him about it :p I'm satisfied with my exhaust as it is now... Plenty loud enough to **** off the neighbors and drown out the ricers :v

Oh, that reminds me. I have to post the video of the SLR and X5 tracking around Norscheifie*sp* :p

If you come down for Spring Break I'll be entering the ESV into Spring Break Nationals and hope to place in my division.

To me… The Enzos are just not that attractive. I cant deal with the window/****pit design

Maybe... This one was primarily focused on the SLR but had a shot or two of a X5 taking a sweeping coner pretty composed.

That's why the X5 is the greatest vehicle of all time.

if i had a gallardo the 1st thing i would do is the doors (scissor lambo doors)
next i would put some hre's and then exhaust and ecu
depending on the color u might want to tint the rear lights, looks good on lambo's

What ECU??? I'm sure Gallardo owners would be interested if there really was one that does it any good.
