I'm pretty sure 99% of supercar owners care only about the look, you could easily put a Corolla motor inside a plastic case that looks like the V10 or 12 and most of the owners would never notice.

Agreed. The thing that bugs me is that Lambos always have pretty sweet wheel designs that actually follow the design language of that particular car. This even speaks for Lambos as old as Miura, Countach and Diablo.

this design for example, looks great on the Huracan.

im ok with aftermarket wheels on super cars, its just that if u pay for an expensive wheel then it should have the quality of one

if i buy rotas, i know from the quality isnt gonna be like rays and this means im totally not gonna be tracking my car for sure

what i pay for is what i get, now its up to how i use it so i dont have injuries or death

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".

most of the time the nicer stock wheels look best anyways

very rarely is the case where somone puts an aftermarket wheel on and you think, yea, that looks better than stock

As much as i do admire alpina's, even if i had the money to buy them, the only one i would consider is the d3 lol

mainly cus its a fast enough car and has enough style without being a massive land yacht like the b6's or b7's

Spoiler!

I love the Alpina's but they don't hold their values and depreciate quite fast, faster than most M cars.

Realistically though, if you're rich enough to buy one all your going to care about is the exclusivity of owning one. Unless you're a Alpina enthusiast.

Apparently there's an GT2RS for sale locally with something like 6k on it for a half million dollars. Will one of Gululu's comrades buy it?
