Thanks for all the compliments! I agree with everyone about aftermarket Murcie wheels! I almost bought a set of factory '05 Roadster/Hercules wheels since my car came with the phone dial looking wheels (pre-2005 cars). I couldn't find anything better than the Roadster wheels but I also wanted something different. I just couldn't do FLASH and BLING! No way I was going to buy some Avantis or GFGs or whatever those flashy wheels are. Just wasn't my style. I wanted stealth and sinister!

The guys at DPE were awesome. They were patient while I kept changing my mind on style, color, and finish. I must have sent them a dozen emails making changes over and over. I finally had to pull the tirgger and make a decision or I would still be rolling around on phone dial 18s!!

Since they had never done a Murcie wheel in this style no one had any idea how they would look. Either way ... I owned them. As you can imagine it was agonizing few weeks. To spend all this money and hate them was a recurring nightmare for me! Needless to say ... they came out better than anyone would/could have expected!

Nice collection of cars. Do you have any group shots? Would be cool to see that bunch together.
Jason - I think you and TTMotion asked me about group shots. Unfortunately I do not have a group shot of my cars. Hard to get them all together at the same time unless I let a bunch of friends drive them! Not an appealing idea knowing my friends!

Here are a couple of shots of my other cars ...

Thanks! I filmed episode four or five (not sure) this past Sunday. It actually airs every MONDAY night at 6pm (CA time) on SPEEDTV. Yesterday (02/18) was the first episode. I believe the episode I filmed will be out in a month. Just set your Tivo to record the series!
