Re: Does your GTA attract the wrong kind of attention?

the shape of the 5 and 6 series beemers have grown on me and I love all the sport versions in the beemer range, having been fortunate to drive a m3 e46, I appricate the engineering, its well built and quick, maybe alfa and bmw should team up and build the ultimate car...but then again alfa are catching up with the Germans in terms of quality, reliability etc

Re: Does your GTA attract the wrong kind of attention?

Ever since I had the quad exhaust MOD I get too much attention now.. Mostly any Bridge& Tunnel driver with a point to prove will either follow me or just urge me at the lights..

Also since I have had the Bella lowered the look is even more aggressive..

A profle shot with my other wheels - guess which is faster?

The shadows are quite deceiving as they emphasise wheel gaps, when in reality the gap is 1 finger.

Nice motor Crashwong,
Personally, I dont think many people are aware of the GTA cars, especially in the dark colours.

Re: Does your GTA attract the wrong kind of attention?

Unfortunately mine may have attracted the attention of a mobile speed camera . Very annoyed with myself as I'm usually so careful on that particular stretch of road. Dual carriageway with 60mph limit runs into a 40mph limit. 10:00am Saturday morning one other car in front of me, bright blue sky. The road has had a few bad accidents but they were much further back (as in 2 miles further back) so they can't really say it's an accident blackspot. Unmarked van tight against a bridge support so virtually invisible. It's a bit touch and go as to whether I'll get "done" but I'm sweating it out at the moment.
