Nice photos and great car, I think you should get 19 or 20 '' wheels if you are going to the effort of PC

IMHO

Wow man, that's really nice. Makes me wish I had the i and not the xi and had the leftover money spent on the sports package. But nice nonetheless.
You like the steering wheel? The sports button does help alot for me. You may want to get sprintbooster if they make for 08 yet. It feels laggy when I drive without it. Oil cooler helps cause I drive fast everywhere I go. Sucks I spent all that money when I changed out the springs and am changing out the sway bars that come with it. Im so glad i got the Heads up display though. I suck at directions and it tells me right in the windshield where to go. I never look at the freaking MPH though. I cant break my habit and keep looking at the regular guage. LOL

Looks great! Can't wait to see the new wheels on there. It's going to completely transform the entire car.

Hey what is PC? How much was that car in Canada? That must have been super expensive. I got lucky cause prices in the U.s. went up on the 5 series in 2008. 1000 more for 5 series cause of weak U.s. dollar. They went up on options and destination charge too. My car came out to 70k total with sales tax with the 2,000 off invoice. Including clear bra which was 540. The tint and rubber mats too. I love rubber mats ! They own. I put 10k down cause I sold my integra. Payments on 60k for fully loaded 5 and twin turbo. Good investment huh? And i get upto 28 mpg on hwy.

Take me for a ride in that boy right there! The fastest I did in my car is 160 mph. Its delimited cause of my procede v3. This car is rated at around 185 mph max. Im probably going with HRE for the wheels. Their are so many good choices though. It sucks!!

Can't go wrong with HRE's. Looks like you're heading in the right direction. Very nice!
