Default Got both babies detailed...PIX!!

So finally got the GS's detailed ...it's been a while for the 2GS. I had water spots/swirls and paint looked "dead".... well as you can see from the pix he really deserved his earnings. The guy did an awsome job and i could not be happier. I dont know what the policy of CL is regarding "indirect advertising" but i definately would refer this guy all CL members in socal....

Ok I know my 2GS could not look more stock but whenever i think of adding rims to that car i get hit with another big expense ...starting from the move from NY, Mortgage and then the purchase of the 3GS...well someday

My 2GS really needed help. I had scratches/swirls/marks/waterspots and the paint had faded. I had really abused this car but now it looks like i just brought it from the dealership

The 3GS is such a great follow up to the 2GS. It has really grown on me. However, together, the two look almost completely different. The 2GS now looks ancient compared to the 3GS and the 3GS looks modern compared to the 2GS. (IMHO)

However, the 2GS will aways be unique and beautiful. Your Pictures are perfect testament.

Great pics,

Thanks!

Wow, I never had a clue as to how much nicer the 3rd is compared to the 2nd.. When I park my 2nd and 3rd side by side my 2nd blows my new car out the box.. I don't think I've seen stock for stock sitting together b4. Very nice though.. I like that you still have both..

Beautiful! Wow, both cars look great! The 99's paint look like it's brand new!

Btw, your house is beautiful! I live in NY and I'm trying to move to a "nicer" place. Your neighborhood looks great!

If you don't mind me asking, how much do houses around your neighborhood go for?

Sorry, my post was confusing.....I realized that he moved from NY to SoCal. I was just curious how much a house like that would cost in SoCal.

Thanks again guys

I almost bought a 5 but just had to get a partner for the 2GS You know i kinda understand that since most of the CL peeps have heavily modified 2GS's they kinda tend to think the 3GS is "bland".....I know my 2GS is bone stock (except the interior) maybe that is why i love my 3GS since it (IMO) looks better, has the rims ( i know they are not 20's ), has more gizmos, seems like it has more power and better handling and...uh...wait...ITS BRAND NEW ......Maybe thats why i always say that the 3GS is way better than the 2GS.
