Hello everyone, ive been a member of this thread for about two months now, and ive pretty much been doing my homework on this car, what its capable of, and the mods i will be able to do with it. Im coming out of a 2008 mercedes benz e350 which i had a friend take over from me yesterday. Im going to pick up my brand new 09 g8 gt in liquid red, two tone leather, fully loaded in about an hour. its supposed to raing out here on long island, new york for the next two days, hopefully i can take some pics of it by the weekend!!!! Wish me luck!

Wait until he finds out the rims run around $450 a pop. LOL Or at least they did last I checked.

Congrats on the new ride. They are a lot of fun.

Congrats and welcome! I got the same car as you about 3 weeks ago and I'm still in love with it. My wife scraped our front right wheel on the first week so I feel your pain.
