    dude i was going solely off the same info as you and off of what you posted. i dont have any more info than you that makes me think poorly of this car. i dont know what examples and concepts youre talking about. i thought you were saying the 7 seems sick, and youd rather have it than an m5 (stock? does it matter?).

    you said youd take that 7 any day over an m5.

    im saying i think thats nuts and i would take the m5 all day every day unless something was wrong with it or it was slammed and painted flat black. like i said, wouldnt even trade a stock e30 for that 7 after seeing just one picture of it. of course this can be turned into a debate about whether or not modding cars is right and what modding is acceptable, and where this car and other cars in the Stanceworks style fall into that. im not trying to go there.

    this is turning into an argument and i dont want to be in one with anyone on here. you couldve just responded to my original comment with why youd rather have that 7 over an m5, then we could agree our tastes differ. instead you wanna make it all complicated.

    Im not, it wasn't an argument. Rather i was trying to clear up the reason why i originally posted, which was in response to the argument someone else posted up. As far as 7 vs m5 i dont care anymore, I havent driven or seen either in person. But going along with what wheelhop said, a better exapmle would be that s62 7 or a bone stock newer 7 worth the same amount.

    Our tastes may or may not differ, but im sure if the FMU guy wanted an m5, thats what he would have gotten

    Please explain what point I'm missing about your stance on wheels.

    In for comment about how you aren't going to explain because I just won't understand.

    And i would rather have that 7 anyday then an m5 and i dont even like the 7s wheels that much.


    And I agree with Janderson on this one for the most part.
    I'd take a stock M5 over that 7, you've gotta be nuts.

    But a modified 7 with S62 and 6 speed over any other 7, fuck yeah.

    such a misplaced s54 swap.

    edit- i havent even looked to find a build thread or any more info/pics on the 7, but im sure if i did id find way more wrong with it haha. i do see your recent post about modding a car that you like instead of buying a "better" one, but i dont think anyone was saying thats wrong. its the type of modding and result to the car thats in question. its funny the 7 has both flat black paint and super duper slam look.
    The car has an S62. Who the fuck would put an S54 in a 7?

    No point. Just by making this response I'm continuing to fill his need for attention.

    I just think it's funny that he starts a thread on bfc about "knock-off wheels" and having to "pay to play," then states here that people must be stupid to think he pays full price for wheels.

    So he doesn't have to "pay to play," yet talks down to others who can't/won't spend the kind of money it takes to HRE's/Work/BBS, etc.
    Lol. My need for attention? I didn't start this thread. ;)

    And you're totally missing my point on wheels, but that's okay, because you're proving yourself to just spout BS because you don't like me, not because you actually have a point.

    Oh and everyone, go grab a copy:

    Yeah, well again that was just an example. I obviously would not choose between a photo and this concept of an m5, which we haven't even defined yet.

    Maybe i would take the m5 if the 7 is botched as it sounds, but thats not my point
