why no rim mods? If i was rich enough to afford a car that's in gt5, it would definitely not have stock rims. The car i was going to use is available with black rims from the factory so i put factory looking rims on it and painted them black. I'm guessing that is not allowed?
 
I wish there was a beach-like location to take pictures. I take my Evo IX to Galveston Island so often.
 
If Clubman Stage Route 5, doesn't suit the theme. Then I will change my entry, during the week.

Going to be a lot of California's and Italia's!

Where is the love for all the family vehicles like this . I am thinking of taking pictures for this competition of that exact car. Might change it if I find a better family car though.
 
So why the California and the 599. I thought there would of been more affordable cars like the BMW.

I'm not gonna use a convertible sports car... When I think of driving towards a holiday destination I'd rather drive a station wagon then a car with a trunk the size of a glove box! :sly:
 
Off to the beach!
The sun is shining my "bling" rims are blinding people:cool: and reflecting everything...everything is looking good...👍👍

I dare you to use the T1 again Dennis! :sly:

If it was a Photoshop competition I would definitely use it!!
I would add some people and children into the car, put some luggage on the roof etc...

This comp is about original cars indeed
 
Doesn't DQ you from using it... it's a great car for that "cruisin' down the streets" vibe, I say go for it.

I know but with too many of those cars in a comp your chance is lower to be chosen by the judge for poll than using another car... except you use an F40 :D
