Smile Farewell for now, RADBNZ is out - yellow replacement is in
I've been in this SL AMG forum section for about 1.5 years and it's time to move on.
RADBNZ was sold a month ago and I'm moving to an Italian, a Ferrari F430.
Farewell guys, follow me on my fb page, Ronnie Renaldi Photography, if you wanna see the progress on my new ride

Absolutely my favorite Ferrari color, especially with that interior. I looked at a very similar car when I had my GT2 and was contemplating going back to an F-car.

RADBNZ, I love(ed) your SL, one of the very best out there, not overly done, but very aggressive and giving this car what it needs to match the performance. Going to the prancing horse will be a much different (not in a bad way) experience.

Do you happen to have the details on what rim sizes and offsets you were running. I want new wheels for my car, and want it very aggressive to the edge of the fender, but NOT past. Dont want to have to roll fenders either.
