Best car so far is my 05 Jetta TDI, I bought it with 90k miles, its at 370,000 now and I beat the piss out of it. Only had to do regular maintenance and switch out the turbo. I liked it so much I went got a new 2014 Jetta TDI. We'll have to see how this one holds up since I'm never taking it back to the dealer since the emissions scandal.

well he must've launched badly then, or had an automatic
don't get me wrong man, your e63 is bad-fuckin-ass, the best of both the luxury and sports cars, but the GTR is a superior sports car man.
statistically speaking, and also from it's performance on tracks.
in straight acceleration the gtr has a quicker 0-60, and their 1/4 times are almost identical.
and are damn near the same price.. neither of them would smoke each other though, no way
safe to say WAAAAY outta my pricerange, but I hate the new german cars... try adjusting your timing, or even doing your own brakejobs, wanna check your oil? bet ya don't have a dipstick.. having 8 different compo\uters on board is a whore
if you can afford it, and don't work on your own cars? then hell yea, BOTH the gtr and the e63 are badass..
but pop the hood and wrench on one.... and you'll quickly change your mind, and be dropping expletives..
but both those cars will blow the doors off my lil 25 yr old Nissan.
but getting 30 mpg, and still having 200 hp in a metric ton... and knowing EXACTLY how everything on my car works..
that's worth it to me.

No. Go the matt grey. Take some clear coat and add grey in different ratios. Pick the finish you like and spray the car. You can do black or any colors that way.

I'm going to do my next build that way. Flat or slightly over flat and mix the clear coat with the black until its barely different color and do flames. Ghost flames that barely show up.

I also think flat grey would look good with candy red mixed lightly in the clear coat. You end up with flat-satin looking grey with candy tones that show through. It is pretty.

I was a structural mechanic and aircraft painter. I can lay paint like glass.
