The engine sounds like a raped alien. That's one thing on the list that made me enjoy it. I really wish it was a bigger exhaust note while driving it like a granny. (Ex. 350Z). But I fell in love when the car when I heard it scream as I test drove it. I used to live in Lynchburg, VA

I live in hampton Va, yeah when I test drove it i was sitting at 6k rpms didnt even know it the engine sounds incredible this car is made to be driven, weight distribution is incredible, driving up to NYC i hit bad snow on 95 i have blizzaks on it know problems whatsoever. And there is nothing like other 8's flashing you when you pass them at least in NYC. I guess its an 8 thing lol

Looks really nice..... most of the 8 drivers in Vegas would rather cut you off then to wave hi... And god forbid you pull next to one and wave... They think you are doing a drive by and take off....

well... took the pics at night... in a dark area... so as you can expect/see, cant really see the car a whole lot since it's black lol. But you'll just have to trust me! recently switched out interior lights (first 2 pics) and then I liked the way the 3rd pic turned out. Car was a bit too dirty to take any pics with light at that time... I'll get some good day pics when it's all nice and shiny.

So, I've had mine for 4 months and had the pictures about the same amount of time. Finally decided to post my baby. She's still stock and will mostly stay that way other than a wing, the MS wing most likely.

Metal, your 8 looks nice! I vote for the MS wing. And though you say you will probably keep it mostly stock, just replacing the amber corner lights for clear corners would be a cheap and very appealing mod.

You are lucky you have the black/brown leather seats.

Thanks a lot. I decided to go with clear corners shortly after posting that. XD Still debating on the wing though.

^Yeah clear corners are a must for the BB. which wing were you considering. I bought my BB 8 without the wing, then purchased an oem one for only $70. I think it looks much better/more agressive with the wing.
