Haha why the **** did you lease that bimmer? Just look at how the hood is designed, there's a line on top of the headlights lol. it looks like a someone squished the front end. For the $ i would've leased the new C-class
IS-F looks great, i wouldn't get aftermarket wheels on it myself. Stock look is best, i'd even go as far as raising it back up a bit. Keep it classy, TE's imo would push it more towards a boy racer look.
Is that lollipop heads' m6 i see? haha

company pays for most of it. partnership with bmw. it was that or 128. doesn't look bad but it really do handle like crazy and "feels" fast as hell. stop by if you want to test it out. 255tq at 1350 RPM.
yeah i think im keeping stock wheels. they are forged, light and good design. the car looks a lot better in person.
yeah, he got his m6. it's pretty damn quick. he said he wants to race you now. lol.

from looking at the pics, i say raise it up a bit. it'll make your wheels look more aggressive than they are, rather than tucked. My m3 now, is practically stock height oem size tires. Looks better and keeps the lady friends happy

he cut down now. lol to about 213 and i think he is going to stop at 205. m button on that car feels fast as hell. he ordered a lot of things too maybe you can help him with the install mr. bimmer. angel eyes, etc.
the F looks good in person. im not going for that rake look. i like really like it the way it is but when coils come in, might raise it slightly in the rear(few millimeters). it doesn't scrape at all on nothing and it feels good because it still looks very good. im just not good at photography, we both know that.
oem sizes are good. forget all that stretch stuff. honestly, i can't even use stretch tires on this car, too much torque and power. i bought bridgestones re-11 all around and it grips amazing now. but you need to run fat tires again, it looks much better anyways. our cars dont need stretch tires to look good like the 350z did.

the parts off the Z is to fund the mods. the car itself will hopefully be my downpayment to townhouse with a garage. 
for people who have nagging gfs or parents that tell you modding is a waste of money, as long as you have good parts, you will get most of your money back and that extra little money that you lost was all worth the happiness over the years, lol. i think i did very well selling all my parts.

I agree with your plan and your sentiments 100%. As the owner of a townhouse with a single car garage, let me offer this advice: get a townhouse with an extra wide single or a two-car garage. Mine is basically a shoe box and unless I am swapping an air intake I don't have room in there to do any work. I almost have to fold my side view mirrors back just to get in with precision maneuvering. And make sure you measure it lengthwise to ensure that your ISF will fit. That's a beastly car and the *** end would probably hang out of my garage.
yeah i know what you mean, the town house with a double garage is an extra 75k! for that price, id rather get a house, lol. i just like the apartment life (no lawncare, etc) but want a garage. i'll look around, thanks for that advice. i think these single garages are more for storage than a car, lol.
btw, new functional diffuser just came in

for the treehuggers. MPG not too shabby for 5.0 v8.
had the apexi throttle controller on eco and cruising on the freeway by myself. felt slow as ***** but if you want to save gas, eco mode works wonders.
couple other readings around town.
