Factory production car? BMW wished they made cars this well painted and with such detail!

Very very nice MR APPLES

At first, I was sceptical. Now, I am overwhelmed!

Its very easy to -overdo- these cars..I think you guys did everything just right..very very nice

If they did spent that sort of time on production M5's you'd only see a few hundred a year made for about 200k each.
I bet they do the paint in less then a day at the factory, not 500+ custom hours.
As they say you get what you pay for (in most cases).

Okay enough cannot be said about this beauty! I must say after finally hearing the Youtube vid that the exhaust differant and should be since the car is unique. I loved the growly roar!

This Ute is clearly in a class by itself I have not been to SEMA for 2 years but if its going to be there I think I will make this trip!

The cip was of it starting when cold so in the "loop" mode.
Once warm it sounds very quite.
Give it a rev and she wakes up big time.
There was some talk of Bridgestone using it at the Chicago auto show in 09, but the cost to air freight it to the US and back was a joke.
So unless your in the Melbourne Bayside area over this OZ summer, or at Speedfest on the 14th - 15 Feb at Sandown. she'll be stuck on the bottom of the world.

I forgot....for the Aussies, it will be at Summernats from Jan 1st - 4th 09 at the PPG section.

No Ute that far north, sorry.
So far not decided if that week in on the cards.
Looking at history I've played the PGA most years.
