Thanks Money,

I think that is a very good explanation of what most people would hear.

Money, hopefully one of these days you'll figure out DIY for rear seats and seatbelts in a GT3!

How did you swing the CA black plate looks classic

There was +3000 orders for them last year so they started to produce them this year. Anyone can get them right now

Nice ^ like it.

I wasn't too sure how it was going to work out but the black & yellow matches the black wheels & PCCB really well.

I think the plate looks great in those colours.

I've wanted to get these siblings together for a photoshoot forever, but having a 1 and 4 year-old in the house has made it difficult. That, and my lack of desire to let any of my friends drive my cars. I met a cool (maybe slightly misguided) kid that lives about ten minutes from me on YouTube. He tagged along with me to Cars and Coffee in the GT3. He happens to be a pro photographer and had nothing to do on a Saturday, so we drove the cars to my spot and took some shots. I've been meaning to explain how a take, edit, and upload a photo, so this was an opportune time.

After we got to my house and gathered up the gear, I tossed him the key to my GT3. You heard me right, I TOSSED HIM THE KEY TO MY GT3! I think he almost had a heart attack. Now, I looked him dead in the eyes and sternly said, "This car is my life's dream. I will murder you if you mess it up." (Man, I'm getting soft in my advancing age.) I would have never let anyone drive my car a few years ago. Shoot my wife's only been in it once! So I led the 10 minute trip to the spot in the lowly M3. After the shoot, I was assuming he'd want to drive the M3 back. I held out both keys and asked him, "Which one." He snatched the GT3 key without a second thought. I fully understood.

I'm realizing the position I am in being blessed beyond what I deserve in owning these two special cars. I completely understand what it means to someone that is like me that is younger or doesn't have the means. Not that I'm interested in letting everyone I come across drive my cars, but I'm trying my hardest to let others in on this experience. Anyway, here are the videos and photos.

the last shot is my favorite.

my two favorite tips for car shots;

- always use a tripod, with shutter release.
- use prime lenses (dont need to be L lenses)

Nice pics M. I can't believe how the tires look on the 3. I think mine looked like that for about three days.

Which 3?

Lol. I'm a little slow today. I meant the GT3.
