So is this twice for BB2 in Ecellence? I wonder what the record is for Ecellence featuring the same car?

BTW - Congrats Jack!

Thanks. I was flattered that they asked to use a picture. As I understood it, they got a lot of positive response on the (really gorgeous) green RSR they used previously.

I haven't seen the ad or which picture they used, since Excellence takes a couple of extra weeks to make it all the way to Los Angeles (clearly, it's not delivered by a Porsche).

I believe this is the ad, it was in a OT post ( Pelican Parts BMW Photo Contest ) asking for a bmw picture for a similar ad.

Sweet. Thanks. It looks like I snapped that during an earthquake, doesn't it?

And Eade's car was parked at the same angle during the same earthquake:

Interesting, the cars seem to be moving but no one's in them. Scary!

Awesome cars though!

Jack's car is a celebrity in my household. My eight year old daughter and 10 year old son believe it is the untimate supercar. Next time you go on a ride along with me, you have to drive BBII. Maybe we can go in pursuit in it!

Jack, was that pic taken before or after your recent spin-out into the tires? Car looks great - black 911s are the coolest, IMHO.
