When did they do the photoshoot? I hate when they do an all day shoot, then you have to wait months before your article gets printed. Hopefully they did a nice story on you and your ride.

Thanks for all of the very kind words guys. I gave a shout out to Club Lexus in the feature. This includes all of you guys

They didnt do a photoshoot. I did the photography and submitted the shots to them. They get submissions all of the time so to be picked means your car is HOT. Maybe not hardcore enough for a full article but this still makes me happy. A full article would be insane but I am still a happy camper. This my second car in the readers rides section of a major tuning magazine. Works for me

I am happy because I am having the page framed up professionally to go next to my old G35 Readers Rides section I have framed from 2005.
congrats! i'll be sure to look it up next time i hit the publix magazine aisle! =]

no problem man. Whats driving me nuts is that I would like to pick up another 5 or 6 copies for the friends and family and I cant find the magazine anywhere. The 2 copies I recieved were copies that I order through the mail. The strange thing is that I never recieve the magazine in the mail before it hits the shelves. I wonder if they sent me the magazines early

It might be normal. I subscribe to another car magazine and I always get the magazine after it hits the shelves.

Thanks again guys. I finally found a stack at a Wal Mart. I bought 9 copies for me, friends, and family. Whats funny is that the copy I got in the mail have paper thin covers. The ones I picked up today have a thicker cover
