Official 2025 "Latest Pic of Yo Whip" Thread

Another year, another new thread. Let's get this started.

It only took me a week to go from stock wheels to something actually nice.

Looks great, but those little holes are making my fingers curl in fear.

Half the Wranglers in Surrey with non stock wheels don’t even have a tire mounted on the spare. All in on the bit or nothing lmao.

I'm the kind of guy that looks at a car overall. I don't put too much stock into one aspect of a car and throw the baby out with the bath water.

I've yet to see someone build the "perfect" car for everyone; there is always something to complain about and everything has a compromise.

Suppose the only complaint is the sound, the tablet dash, and the Omg touch buttons. I'd say they did a damn fine job lol.

So you park, and you can't get out anymore with that parking brake placement.

E-brake is on. For all cars with brake lever by door sill, it can manually be pushed down after engaged.

Let me drive you Exige and I can tell you.

I bet your Exige is closer to the 4c, which I love with all my heart.
