    Life

    So.... I'm online surfing a forum I frequent quite often, and come across a picture taken of my car (unbeknownst to me) with this caption! This person mentioned it was taken just yesterday in Schaumburg (a suburb of Chicago). I liked it so much, I added the "LIFE" title, and made it into this poster..

    Another sad demonstration of some unhealthy warped thinking.

    There seems to be a big bump in this kind of thing happening in this forum lately.

    Good health to everyone!

    Yes, I saw that as well at the other frequented forum.
    Another member's signature was along the lines of, "behind every successful man, is a surprised woman."

    Talk about confidence in your man lol.

    It is funny in a nasty way, true in some senses, but it's tacky IMO. An expensive car does not make a person successful. There's much more to life, much more to be successful at and accomplish than the accumulation of wealth or goods. I'd love an R8, but I don't need one, nor would I want it to define me as a person to others. Cars and especially these cars sure are fun though.

    My shop, IND Distribution smoked them. They were done very lightly, although they do look dark in that picture.

    The corollary to that is, "Behind every great man, there is a woman rolling her eyes."
    "There are old men and there are bold men, but there are very few bold old men."

    Re: Life

    that is hilarious, how they took a pic of your car!! and btw- your car came out looking ferocious!!!

    i think the hater comment sometimes may stem from the people driving the cars. i remember, when i ordered my r8, i actually saw one at the gas station (and i never see them around!). so pretty excited, i pulled up, and just said, "hey, nice car." and the guy looked at me, rolled his eyes, smirked, and turned his head away like im some peon; what a d*ck! Lol. maybe i wasn't born into money, and i have to work for it, so the mentality is different but i think humility diminishes hate/envy.

    moral of the story- to all the people on the forum lucky enough to drive r8's, don't be a d*ckhead to someone whose excited when seeing your car! Lol.
