Brasko · 01-04-2019, 03:45 PM

Definitely not me.

Suds · 01-04-2019, 04:31 PM

Nice that it comes with "Fresh Pine Scent" hanging from the steering column.

NickyC · 01-04-2019, 05:58 PM

What's going on with the hood? Passenger's side not clamped down?

Spoolin Montego · 01-04-2019, 10:10 PM

They couldnt even take the time to click the hood down on the passenger side before the pics lol

shay2nak · 01-05-2019, 02:18 AM

it's tricky to close that carbon hood. lol

BarryB · 01-05-2019, 01:29 PM

I hope they open it fully before they try to "latch" the right side down

heckyeahbro69 · 01-05-2019, 09:04 PM

It is/was ken griffey jr's car.

NickyC · 01-05-2019, 11:08 PM

Wow really? Super class guy whose incredible talents were unfortunately diminished by all the steroid freaks of that era.

He has a good taste in cars too obviously.

coryf · 01-10-2019, 07:05 AM

A good friend of mine just bought this car. Super clean. The wrap looks amazing in person. It is going to be removed eventually but for now it will stay. The GTS is n awesome car. So many small things that BMW did to make the cars special.

RichBunch2 · 01-10-2019, 07:18 AM

Car's new home...

RichBunch2 · 01-10-2019, 07:26 AM

By the way, the 997 GTS in the background of the above pic is now for sale.

FormulaMMM · 01-10-2019, 08:34 AM

Sweet, congrats. I've always thought a fully wrapped car -- no matter if in line with your individual tastes -- would be a bonus. Hassle of removing I suppose, but you're assured pristine paint.

Vanity plate in the truest sense by Jr. 993 a reference to his record 99.3% affirmative HOF vote tally. Should have been 100%. 3 writers with their pompous heads up their... https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...l-hall-of-fame

Darth One · 01-10-2019, 08:51 AM

Or maybe he recycled the plate from a Porsche 993?

Congrats RichBunch2 and welcome to the club

RichBunch2 · 01-10-2019, 03:56 PM

993 or 99.3%, either are awesome!
I bought the car 12/30 so haven't driven it a ton. But the times I have, the wrap is certainly an identifier. Seems every time I've driven it somehow it gets back to me that they saw it, not knowing it was me.
I've got a track day tomorrow and after I plan to take the logos and numbers off. I might leave the wrap a bit longer after I see how it holds up to track abuse.
The wrap is certainly bold, to say the least, but it was done very well. Printed on chrome film. Door jambs even wrapped.
Thanks for the welcome! Looking forward to hanging with you guys.

Hope you checked to see if your water filter is clogged before your track day

RichBunch2 · 01-10-2019, 05:56 PM

Changed it a few days ago in preparation. Crazy how much of a difference it made.

Lol

Biggest downfall of the water injection system. Look into getting an in-line filter

SunnyD · 01-10-2019, 08:56 PM

RichBunch2 · 01-23-2019, 09:36 AM

Tracked it down and Metrowrapz in Miami did the wrap. Did an excellent job.
