New Guy = New Pics - Enjoy
Hey All,

Just want to take a second to post a few pics and say thanks. I've been hanging out in the background for the last few weeks reading and learning.

I've waited my whole life for this car - and now that I have it - I can't even touch it. In fact, I won't even see it for the first time until May - when I get home on leave. Until then, I'm going to hang out here with you guys during my down time from guarding the frontiers of freedom. Thanks in advance for the company.

Hey - If anyone recognizes this car, or knows anything about it let me know. And if you work for IMAGINE AUTO, heads-up, it's coming in for a check-up and dyno next week. I'm going to expect a full report!!!!

Enjoy the pics!!!

David

Looks beautiful. I hope you had a full PPI done before you purchased it. The guys at Chicago Motor Cars are not very honest or reputable. Be safe over there!

Thanks - Yeah had a little trouble with them. The PPI was done - but they picked the inspector and I'm 9500 miles from there. That's why its going to iA next week. I want it checked by someone I can trust. Thanks -I'll be safe.

Not sure. I know they don't sell them at Tire Rack. The guys at Chicago Motorcars told me they were RUF, but I can't get any confirmation on that. I posted some close-ups on the "wheels forum."

Those guys at Chicago Motors are idiots! I'm pretty sure they are Champions. Check out GMG's



Champion Motorsports Magnesium Competition Wheels FTW!

Wow, nice car. I thought the "9500" miles away was just a figure of speech until I looked at your info.
What will it be like having a fairly exotic car like this in Baghdad? You won't feel like a big target?

David,

Those are definitely not Ruf wheels.

You're in great hands with Stephen and the guys over at Imagine Auto.

All the best! Oh yea, congrats!
