Hey Beyonders,

The leaves are falling and we all know the snow will be here before we know it. This is good news for guys like me with STIs and other fun winter cars but lots of the summer toys will have to go away soon. Here are a few pics of cars we've completed over the last month.

Great lineup!

Personally not a fan of the rims on the SLR.

No worries. Wheels are a very personal thing and we all like different styles.

This 20" DYMAG/Pirelli combo is 70.2lbs lighter than the original 19" MBZ/Michelin combo that came on the car. The owner loves the way it drives with the lighter rolling stock :)

I actually really like those rims on the SLR, something sporty and unique plus theyre functional. The other setups are all the same and rather cliche.

Seen those wheels on a Silver SLR too. Drop-top looks unreal!

LOL, easy to be an "armchair baller" on the internet :D

I don't take offence to comments like this because ultimately the cars are not mine and we upgrade them to the owner's wishes but I do find it funny when people cut down premium cars like these that cost $XXX.

These are all amazing cars and unless you live in the heart of L.A. or spend 24/7 surfing high-end car forums none of these upgrades are "cliche". We need to come back to earth here people...an R230 SL with $10k wheels is a very special machine and if you disagree you need to head down to a local homeless shelter for a dose of the REAL WORLD :rolleyes:

It can happen to the best of us at times :nut: Sometimes I need to go for a drive in our '91 Previa shop van to remember that not everyone drives around with 500hp, 15" brakes and super-glue tires!

It's a good thing you drive something unique to make a statement like that.

Not everyday you see a 17 year old red Toyota driving down the street.

It is the first and only Calgary-delivered one that I know of, but I don't claim to know everything about the local SLR numbers :D

Yeah right :bigpimp: Every year Mark comes back from Tokyo with pics of wild Previa vans but I am not sure that spending $10k to modify the shop delivery van is a good use of funds :banghead:

If I'm in the area, I always made a effort to drive by to see what projects are going on at TW. You guys always brought out the best in rides that already look and perform top notch from the factory..... :-)

thats a high quote for fixing up those automotive gems. I didn't think paper mache' & scrap bits of metal was worth as much as gold. :rofl:

yeah I still have to order in a set of wheels through you guys. Can you guys get your hands on a set of 19" M6 replica's?
