Nice vid. I did thought about it before but it's so damn expensive for Rays, had my eye on the dark blue powdercoated Volk Te37 version in magnesium before but it's just too darn expensive. I'll just go with the regular Le37's later on in gunmetal.

Man, I know how you feel. I was dead keen on those TE37 Mags but the harder I looked the higher the price got. I eventually came to the same conclusion - would be great but just wasn't worth the cost.

Thanks for the vid Eric - very educational. I get the bus sometimes from just near an AMG outlet which has all these BBS and AMG wheels in the front window. Wonder if they mind the hand and face prints I leave....

I was with Taka at the Honda day and got to see a set close up on a blue 350Z. All I can say is they looked superb. A really nice wheel!

Lol, yea, the more you look at those damn nice dark blue Te37 mags, the more the price stands out. It's definately not worth it for that price to save that little weight. I'm still thinking about powdercoating the Le37s to a dark blue when I have some spare change to get those Le37s. Just have to see how good the gunmetal looks on mine.

No, but my first born didn't look too happy when I told him he was off to work in Ray's steelworks...

EZZY:

Are you talking about Sam? I know my friend Sam traded his silver alfa for a black 350z (not the drop top one) and he has F360 vert, AMG SL55 and 997 TurboS vert and many other cool cars at his house... If you are talking about the same guy, he doesn't live "next door"... he lives around bundoora which is quite far away from that white house

cheers,

richie
