Pics of my New Car - in 0-60 Magazine Mobil 1 Garage

Hello friends, I hope you all are having a great week so far.

I have been working with 0-60 Magazine (If you aren't familiar with the magazine - definitely check it out - great book.) and we started to do buildups of my car.

The issue just came out - so I can finally share photos of how it's looking. It has since changed a bit - which that is coming out in the next issue of 0-60 Magazine.

Just wanted to share some photos and the article.

Excited to be apart of this amazing family. I LOVE MY CAR!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to Chris Green from USP Motorsports for all his help with this build. Got a lot of fun things planned with the power category here as well...

Enjoy and thank you all for your support with this project.

For those that want to know -

KW Variant Coilovers - Yeap, lowered just right. Slightly rolled fenders - Thank You Chris Green.

Custom One Lug Wheels - 20" Gloss black lips with matte black faces. Gold bolts and center lug.

Falken Tires FK452 - Front 245/30/20 Rear 305/25/20

No I didn't. This is a new wheel company that has been around for a few years just making custom packages for high end cars and limited edition runs...

So the wheels were custom made for my car. So I have maxed out offsets etc. Exactly what I wanted.

The wheels are forged centers and barrels - super high quality.

Here is how they work -

Thank you all for the kind words. I love this car - drive it daily. Since this photo shoot we have added more performance goodies and some other things. Having fun for sure.

I will keep posting the progress as I go.

All smiles here!

Wow.... great pictures. Congrats on being in 0-60. It's good to finally see pictures of your car. The onelugwheel is interesting; It seems very similiar to center locking wheels.

Enjoy it in good health.
