Ya, Jim's S3 is pretty bad ass. I want a smaller version of the wheels for Oceanic if I'm totally honest. :P

Huh, I've never been there...is it an actual lambo dealer, or do they just get serviced out of there?

Yessir, it is an actual Lamborghini/Audi dealership. The Lamborghini side is under the name, Las Vegas Lamborghini. ;)

Went for a Hoover Dam -> Lake Mead -> Valley of fire cruise this weekend and needless to say my coilover set-up has completely transformed the car's handling characteristics. It's a totally different machine now. :D Here are a few pics of it from the drive. (Sorry for the dirtiness of it).

Coilovers are to handling what a chip or bigger turbo is to acceleration! I never realized that until putting them on the 2 hundo.

It's really too bad your 20v never runs long enough to do that more than once!

What are you impressions of the 380 lb springs? What struts do you have? I'm having a hard time decided what to run in my 90. I was thinking 350 all around.
