I just got an iphone so I figured I would test it out. Unfortunately, the sun was directly overhead and it was very bright outside, so the photos came out like shit. I bet this camera would do very well in medium lighting conditions.

I'm at work so I didn't have a chance to resize the photos, but this will give you an idea of some of the cars around here.

Customer's F430:







GT3 RS getting exhaust and some other stuff (these are pretty rare in white):


550 Spyder (one of the shop owners' cars, he's selling it though)




850 HP shop car (996 turbo) sitting next to a 700 HP 997 turbo:


My Talon next to the owner's Insight (the one I wrote about before), the shop's Cayman S, and the shop's VW "bang bus":


Another shot of the Cayman S (I <3 this car!):


We're driving across town to pick up the shop's green RS for a car show tomorrow. I think I'll get some crazy good pictures tomorrow.. I went to the shop that's hosting the event. There were two Carrera GTs, a Gallardo vert, a few random Ferraris and new M5s, an M3, and so-on. The show should have dozens of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and probably 100 or so Porsches.

I'm Tweak3D's self-appointed mayor.

Please do get pix! What an awesome place to work!


unfortunately, it's a fact that there exists
"an inconveinient truth".

Get out of the box, then recycle it.

Where the hell do you work? Are they hiring?

I probably wouldn't last more than a week, I'd take that F430 around the block and you'd never see my ass again. Go up to Wal-Mart and get 50 cans of flat black and paint that shit in the parking lot.. Nidex's Pay-n-Spray

It's a custom built fiberglass Beck Spyder. The originals are worth like $700k+ afaik. And yeah, it's very very nice. He's selling it for around $15k I think, without a motor.
