Default New wheels, new BBK, new house: a few quick pics

We moved into our new home last weekend and I picked up the Z at Intense last night with the new wheels and the new BBK. Actually, I had it a few weeks ago with the new wheels and tires, but dropped it right back for the BBK install. I'm pretty stoked about everything. Thought I'd share some quick shots of the Z in front of the house.

The Z has its own garage with newly installed epoxy coating and cabinets (there's a workbench under the window in the middle). The 2-car garage is for my wife's car and kids stuff and the titan is parked in the porte cochere. The separate garage for my baby was a HUGE selling point (see wife's driving/door dinging history)!

Wow, apparently not everyone has been hit by the economy. Congrats on being a survivor. The house is beautiful and the Z is gorgeous! Enjoy then both!!

Thanks for the comments everyone. We are still moving some stuff over, so it's been very busy. I will get some more pics of the house up soon. Tomorrow, they finish the built-in entertainment center and the built in office wall. Here is a cell phone pic of the 2-car garage with epoxy and cabinets.

Nicholas Homes is the builder. I had not actually heard of them prior to finding this house.

Dude, no offense, your Z is nice and all but GODANGLYDOO, that's NOT a house. That's a FREAKING CASTLE.

Dayhum. Loving it. As much as I love cars, my interest on properties just grew 10 fold this past couple years.

Congrats on the new house as well as the new mods (house and car wise).

Thanks, man! I was thrilled when we finally closed on it and have been anxious to move in. So much work to get moved into a house this size. I had a lot of work done first, even though the house was new. I wanted it to be exactly how we want it when we moved in. The house is 5302 sq ft plus a 3 car garage. We love everything about it!

LOL. I actually got the rebate as a deduction from the balance I owed on my taxes. I wish I got a refund, but I actually owed $19k+, just on Fed!

OMG, sorry to hear man.

I thought I would have to pay this year as well, but I actually got a refund.
