That's right. There are tons of Ferrari's and Lamgorghini's though.

You couldn't import the lighter 111R from Australia?

I think that he could buy the 111R in Japan. But he wants to bring the car back with him when he returns.

Exactly. If I buy one here, I'm stuck selling it before I come back. I have enough time left here to make bringing it over here worth it. It's not much cheaper to buy one here either. Just the base 111R is about $52,000 with out taxes. On top of that, the roads are awesome!

I'm planning on striping it... but while I LOVE the type 25 look, I think I'm going to try for a little more originality. I'm thinking of having the stripes painted on with BMW Alpine White.

Cade

That HRM car looks so gorgeous, though...!

Mark,

That turned out great! For the rest of you, I visited with Mark last Tuesday and saw this car "under the knife". I'm really impressed by the finished car. I can't wait to see more HRM editions in the future.

Here are some pics of my new Elise





Bordeaux Red, Black int, touring, hardtop. The color is really amazing. Looks totally different in sun vs overcast.

I have a little over 500 miles on it in 5 days, so I should have it broken in very soon. But, so far its awesome.
