Default Picture of my GS

Finally I took a picture of my car. Since I joined CL I have swapped my tail lights and changed the grill. If I get a job soon I will get new Rims (currently thinking of auto couture supreme BR 19" in silver) and drop the car with "TTE Height adjustable Suspension Kit". Tell me what you think.

Looks very nice my friend... But before you purchase some new rims you should drop the car first...

Thanks, I'll probably drop the car when I have got new Rrims.
Have you bought any new rims yet? What did you get or planning to get?

I took this picture during the weekend when there is no meter maids. People are lazy. one block away there is plenty of space, but they don't live one block away. Without the meter maids there is anarchy.
I will order the TTE suspension kit at the same time as the rims. It's still a dream since you and I are in the same business Need to get a job soon.

Actually the standard equipment is totally different here. HID is standard, cd changer, heated seats. The options are moonroof, leather seats and Nav.

I like those much better than the Binnos. Don't tell futuregs
though The Binnos are also nice. I guess that we all wait for the spring then

I would think that leather is optional in the states to? But hardly anyone is that stupid that they order this car with cloth interior.

I would rather have a black GS. It's a very rare car here so when I bought it I had a very limited selection. I think they sell about one hundred new GS a year here.

Well Japanese luxury cars are not easy to sell here. Lexus is the only brand we got. They sell a lot of RX an IS. Only older men and famous HIP HOP musicians drive the GS here. At Lexus they actually asked me if I was a musician. This car is either anonymous or gets a lot attention depending on the how (car)enthusiastic the recipient is? I see another GS maybe once a month and I live in the capital (Stockholm). The only other person I now driving a GS is my uncle and he is the reason that I bought this car.
