The reason it looks the way it does is because it was taken with a very wide angle lens.

You crack me up Frank...

When I just hit reply, almost every word of your paragraph above was flagged on my computer as a spelling mistake...

Its so sad to think that someone has actually likely bought wheels like that for there car. Prob a 1985 Caprice Classic all jacked up like a 4x4and painted day glow green...... I laugh because I have seen them.

Just so happens that I got some pics of a 'tastefull' car couple days back. Can't post, as I'm at my cottage, and didn't bring my LT so have to use my phone. Email sent.

I got them. Why am I not surprised at a Infinity like that. What did he do and "be-dazzle" the whole interior ? The circle air vent diffusers are not all rotated the same way on the hood... Hood scoop is classic though... That has to be one of the most tasteless car I have ever seen. He must know he will never be able to sell something like that.

Nice rides in that storage location you got. First time I ever saw a Camaro vert though. I did not know they were out. I don't pay much attention to Camaro's though.

Very cool Frank ! Thanks !

Technologically speaking I think those $15,000 LED wheels are cool. However, only D-bags will be rolling around on those things. I wonder how long it will be till we see em on the road.
