I'd say this is a fairly good match for a 1968 Meters First 5513?

If I'm not mistaken, ours are the first two LRs in the bunch!

3 year old 300c SRT Design, with already 133k miles on the clock. Think my Rolex is going to last longer :)

Yep, I just put the rack back on this past weekend. Where are you from? Are you on a MB forum?

What the heck is that on top??

Doesn't make the rest of the car feel in balance.

Tires are a little low

It's the OEM MB roof rack. I have a cargo box for vacations. The rack isn't always on, just put in on last Saturday for fun. The tires are stretched low profile, they're supposed to look that way ;)

My cars current value is about the same as my two rolexs current value. My 2005 Subaru WRX STI is a blast to drive and my Rolex are a blast to wear. If I sold all my watches I could buy a brand new 2012 STI with cash. I have priorities and the car isn't number 1 anymore.

2005 Supercharged BMW 530i and a 2011 BMW 740Li.
The SC 530i is much more fun to drive due to its handling...

I'll play. The s550 and m3 are not exciting, so just one pic of my near DD.

I know guys with multiple Pateks who drive Prius' all day, and the opposite. People just have different hobbies.



The black and silver thing is a theme I like, hence the Daytona being black faced, and the AP being this color scheme too, both with just a splash of red.

I guess all my watches together (MSRP) add up to about the price of my modified GT-R (1000+ HP on race gas; very low 9s 1/4 mile and 2.5s 0-60 MPH). Is that considered balanced?
