Default D2 Autosport Does It Again!

The latest issue of Luxury & Exotics just arrived in my mailbox. In it is an article about a blue Bentley Conti GT customized through the collaboration of 3 companies. Derrick's D2 Autosport is among the 3. There is an interview with Derrick and pics, one which shows Derrick's Bimmer riding behind the Bentley. It gives me a thrill to see what this young man has accomplished and looks like he going to go far in the car game. This is what, 3 magazine write-ups now? Derrick, you keep doing it!

Props to D2

The car is nice but IMO I think the wheels are a bit too large.

Nice job , but I agree with you, plus I don't like the design of this wheel.

The wheels look a lot better in the magazine shoot. As for the 22's, yeah they're big but the car can handle it. I'd rather see 21's but the car can handle the big stuff.

Great thread Reg... D2 has a great business going and they'll be around for a long time.. The wheel business and big rims will always be around..and so will D2... Whats next... a TV show.. IMO.. it could be a possibility..

Congrates. Beautiful car, yes the wheels are huge (too big for my taste as well) but I think it still works because of the car's proportions. Hey look at it like this it can be your very own life size JADA toy.
