Default Sick RC F at my dealer!

I had to take my IS for service and while I was there I took a stroll around the showroom and came across THIS!!!

Looking at the list price of those wheels, I'm sure someone out there thinks it's a good idea to pay $2000-2500 per wheel but the people that do are going to want to pick it themselves. $10k for a wheel package is insane.

It's beautiful alright, but that's just crazy prices on the accessories.

Yeah JM Custom Creations has a very high mark up but their work is impeccable. That particular color is set to match the series 2.0 paint on the FR-S.

The Markup being so high turns many of us away who like to do the work our selves and know how much can be saved in comparison but these "custom creations" sell more quickly than you might expect. I've seen on more than one occasion a "Baller" walk in and just say I'll take that one not even looking at the price. There are also a couple of regulars (I can't say who) that come in every six months or so from over seas and do the same thing.

I've done quite a bit of consulting work for JM Lexus but I am not an employee of JM for those who might be wondering.

I'm sure with some negotiations you can get the "sticker" price lower. It is nice to be able to get something fully custom, backed by the dealership and have it all rolled up into your payment.

You will get a discount but would still end up paying more for the mods than if you did them yourself. They usually sell these modded cars to people who don't have the time or knowledge but have deep pockets.

The dealer needs to pay me for that wrap color. Reminds me a typical old spray painted civic in puke color
