np guys, we were supposed to go to the warehouse last week to start-up the cars but we had some other priorities, hopefully this week i will be able to get some time with the gt3rs and the black series for a photoshoot because they came in winter and just got finished being modded.
Here are some pics that I have of some of our collection.

Yes thats a lexus golf cart ;P

Our Florida Esclade in our condo parking structure

Our Broward 98' (my dad had her for about 6 years now and is listing her for sale because we have a azimut on the way)

Picking up the new db9 back in 2006 before we sold it for 2 v8 vantages
(yes thats my dad in backround with the coffee cup)

One of our V8 Vantages when we had her at the woodward dream cruise

The vette (yes its seems funny to have a corvette but its just a toy car that has a supercharger lol) and then theres the bentley

Dad's daily beater, the merc.

Old Arnage which we traded for FS,

Arnage which we just got rid of and we are waiting for Phantom EWB (picture was token next to my dad's office when friend came over with phantom)

ITS A DONE DEAL!!!!!, The SLR is done!!! my dad pulled the trigger on the slr and got a great deal on it!!! he paid $400,000.00 including the smart car, BUT he has to trade in the granturismo. the SLR should be here sometime near sunday or early next week, and the smart car comes on the same trailer. (somehow they found a brand new one in chicago) I'll post pics of delivery and the car once it comes.

we should be getting our silver/black challenger sometime next week as well, but that will immeadiatly shipped out to cali for some mods and brought back within a few weeks, (were just getting the brakes painted orange, rear taillight smoked black, darkening all side markers, orange interior trim, alcantara headliner, and roof and trunk stripes wil be matched to the hood stripes.) ill post pics when the car comes, hopefully we wont get rid of the vette for the challenger because that vette is way to much fun.

I highly recommend the car and dealing with Luxury Motors.
I would NEVER deal with them - largest bunch of crooks out there, with their fake versace suits, designer imposter cologne and slick backed hair, they just make you feel dirty by looking at them...
