Huggy bear?

Are you one of those trollers that can't afford one of your own but likes to bash those that have and get what they want?

Cool ride, good some are brave to try out new things. I didn't quite like the red colour, would be better if it was "Ferrari red", but get your idea trying to match the wheels with the interior. The wheels really looked like the AG M510? Love those!

Keep up the good work.

This was a meet that i found out about when i was mounting the wheels, it was on key biscayne on Saturday at 3pm. It was called the BMW haloween run and it was from 2-3pm right on key biscayne when you pass the toll on the left side and they all did a run to Midtown to eat lunch. Alot of M3's ect, a few M5's but in total about 30+ cars, nice guys.. if you search google its out there but very little info.

My friend who owns Velgen wheels wanted me to go to show them to the people at the meet, feedback was great but i too like the iridescent look of the wheels above.... I wanted some crazy glitter/fleck in mine but was set on a perfect match to the seats..
I missed a bunch of things this weekend. Also the Lamborghini Miami Halloween run to Naples and the Allure motors opening. Need to get more in the flow.

It actually was, i think the paint on my car is just really odd and sparkly from the factory, its really a very tough color to match, its like an off white pearl with a mineral look, like mineral white on the m3 but not as white.

I agree with most of the posts. The wheels just don't look right to me. To each their own - definitely a unique look and it won't be confused for a rental...
