Some of those are ultimate win, but some I wonder about - it looks like they chose to buy a moderate house and a win garage rather than a win house and moderate garage.

If i had that kind of money, thats what i would do too. These "moderate" houses are still in the 7 figures. I would be fine with any of those cars or houses. My god :drool: :drool:

You seem to have quite a beautiful collection. How about a couple quick shots of it. :)

Sorry, I prefer to keep pictures of my cars private. When it comes to online forums like this, you don't really know who is out there looking at the pics if you know what I mean.

I'm sure for the reasons he's already stated. Already made a bunch of people look like fools for not believing.

Back to the topic at hand, I've heard Alfred Balm has a rotating car display in the parlor of his home. Rotates to a new car, seen through a window, every couple of hours. I wonder if somebody else on here can get him to post a couple of pic's?

Who says they don't? Just because the garages are gorgeous doesn't mean the cars don't move.

The garages with a turn-style at the entrance you can rest assured is having more than just 1 car brought in and out on a regular basis.

Awesome. I hate a couple of them though, if you have to move a car in order to drive another one, I hate your garage, no matter what it looks like or what's in it. In that case it's more of a museum than a garage.

Still seems suspicious to me - putting a list of nice cars in your sig is asking to be questioned, especially since this isn't 6speedonline. I only post my cars that I don't mind people knowing about; those I do mind I never talk about - it would be kind of silly for me to put it all into my sig and say 'everybody look at me but don't ask me anything about x, y, or z'

But he refuses to post pictures, then goes and takes and posts pictures, then deletes them all and won't show them again?

It all seems suspicious to me, but I'm only a Jr. Beyond Detective so I don't know shit :D

If this was a private forum where members have to be registered to view, I wouldn't mind posting up pics of my cars, but unfortunately whoever has internet is able to view and see everything that people say here. I do have pictures of my cars up on places like FB and certain forums where it's 'private' and only members can view the pics.


I took the pics down after a week or so after I've proven my point...

In some ways I'm sure it's bragging, but in other ways people respect your opinion more when you have nice stuff. The guy with the Taurus won't get the same kind of love as the guy with the Lambo.

I think it's all about bragging - anybody who lists their assets trying to get e-cred is just :rofl:

You can't tell me this logic makes any sense - I will list my cars in my sig but I won't post a picture of them (with a location that could be anywhere in the entire world) for security reasons. Um, yea, then maybe you shouldn't list what you have in your sig if you're worried about security...........but then how will you brag to people :confused:

lol noob

Cody D hit it right on the dot, what he said about others respecting my opinion. I'm just accustomed to putting cars in the sig area from other forums I visit as it's common practice amongst all members to do it (apparently it's not on beyond), sounds like you are too big of a wuss to list out your 'other' cars.


What's interesting is you seem so desperate to disprove my 'credibility and e-cred' seems like someone needs to have their ego in check instead of accusing others of 'showing off'

I wouldn't call 2efnfast a noob my friend. Its obvious you don't know what he drives, but lets just say it can give any of your supposed cars a run for the money. I have to admit, saying you don't want to share pics of your cars for security reasons is understandable, but then claiming you have them them in your sig is really no different in my opinion. Your reasoning just seems odd.

from what i heard he sold programs to telus, then bought them back after telus screwed them up and sold them back for more. i worked on his first build of the house then he knocked it down to make it bigger. he has a ferrari in the garage as shown in the pic. it's a really nice house.

We will see how your 650 @ 2120lbs will match up to my GTR when my new turbo's when they are installed. Unlike your cars, my cars have full interior and all the comforts that came from the factory. Unlike your replica cobra that can only be driven on the best of days, I can take my cars to the track, abuse them all day long and take my hot date to dinner afterwords.

Here's just an example of what's in store.

My cobra has an interior :confused:

Btw, both my super alloy T5 and strengthened Ricardo box can take 100x the punishment yours can before breaking :rofl:


Neiner neiner weiner :poosie:

edit: However, I will give you the nod that your cars have gadgets like radios and power seats. Still, i'd rather not have fancy do-dads and be able to fix my car if it breaks.......if my alloy T5 breaks it's about 3k to fix and I'm back on the road. If your GTR tranny breaks from your track abuse, it's what, 15k and probably another 5k in labor........and you'll get a whole 4 or 5 laps out of it once more :rofl:

I see you have been mis-informed about the GTR tranny biz from the internet sensations. The GR6 tranny is only weak when you launch it at 4500+ RPM which was the LC1, with the new software (LC2) they launch at around 3500 RPM instead. This puts less stress on the tranny and gives better times on GTR's that are modified because it allows for less wheel spin. Not to mention, if worse case scenario, the 1st gear breaks, all I need to do is order a upgraded 1st gear set for ~$1500 and replace the stock one with a stronger more powerful gear set and do launches all day long day and night.

There is nothing like shifting in 20ms, faster than you can blink your eye.

Ahh Beyond...home of the tangents and E-Penis fights :rofl: Look what I done started just by asking him to post pics of his cars. I personally do not understand how posting pictures of ones garage is any kind of security leak...unless there is loose firearms on the garage floor and the address of the place. Then again, its not my property, and everyone can protect their stuff at their discretion. One silly question though: Your diverse collection is perhaps one of the best I could have dreamed up of, but why an RDX and not the MDX?

One silly question though: Your diverse collection is perhaps one of the best I could have dreamed up of, but why an RDX and not the MDX?

The parking garage he took the pics in didn't have an MDX at that time, only an RDX? :confused:

:rofl:

I had a MDX, the previous generation and I traded that in for a RDX because I like the engine more and because I use it to haul around the dogs. It gets left outside pretty much all year round and only driven when it snows out or when I have company that needs to use a car, so there wasn't any need for the MDX.

I don't know where all of you guys get MDX from....?
