It's amazing what a cool-looking set of wheels can do for the overall look of a car! That looks great.

If it really hurts your feelings that much, I suppose I could take it off.

Gas improvements?? Do you mean fuel economy? I've only driven 50 miles with the new setup so far, but I imagine my Texas trip will be a good test.

I know I'll be getting good fuel economy following Jimmy driving China. I'll have to keep my foot out of it then.

I'm not sure how to take that. Are you calling AMG Pentas Euro trash?

The Hoff single handedly brought down the Berlin Wall. Don't you read history?

Sorry, its not the case. That's the only picture I had of the car that Burt Reynolds could fit in.

I may switch Pentas when I get the other ones refinished. I think the smaller spoke will look better.

Second, hardly...

I'm fairly sure Chad, Mercy, and MBeige have nicer W123s than me. I don't even make the podium.
