Default On to the next car, an LC500 (modification thread #4)

Long story short, my R8 deal fell through and I took it as a sign to be a bit smarter, financially speaking.

After the new owner of the Z drove off I set up the delivery for the LC500. I gotta be honest, I do miss the Z. I've never sold a car that wasnt put back to stock. Seeing it drive off with all my time and money put into it, made me feel a little regret, even now with the new car. I've had it for about 2 week and its definitely a completely different type of car, for lack of a bigger explanations. It catches a lot of attention, especially with the new exhaust on it.

I just got an Armytrix exhaust installed and am attempting to stretch out the modifying a bit, since theres so little that can be done to this car. For some reason I feel like Im in a rush to make the car look the way I want it to. Its almost like a need to get some cheap car I can mod, to essentially get that "high" I need.

I also just ordered samples to get the calipers powdercoated some shade of red and get the stock 21s powdercoated a dark grey of some sort, close to black.

Springs are still 2 months out due to no one having them in stock and 22" wheels cost an arm and a leg. So spening $8-10k on wheels will be something that wont happen right away...."right away" hah.

Anyways, heres a vid of the first start up of the car.
