Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Oh my god. That is a fucking HOT car. I've always thought the Ruf cars were adequately powered and a little bit conservative, styling wise. But good grief is that a great combination. Does anyone else have a car that has this kind of power-to-weight ratio that's a midship RWD platform? The S7 comes to mind, but is that MR or FR?

And god, that thing just looks like a beast. Rawr. I really can't think of a better way to spend a million dollars than to buy two of these suckers. His and hers.

His and hers? No, his and another for himself for later/backup...maybe just to have two different color ones :lol: ...unless of course she if fronting the money for the bill, then I guess she can have one. :wink:
