Hey Schmuck, I have an 04 RL. You can buy mine when I trade it in, since you may be able to afford the updated model by then...but you probably won't want it, because 19 inch wheels are in the near future.

The big fat assed luxury car doesn't have to be powerful. It wasn't meant for that. It was meant as a truly enjoyable ride, which it accomplishes on a grand scale. I personally don't like very small sidewalls for comfort and rim safety, BUT small custom wheels look goofy on big cars. So the cost may be high but the result is (my) style.

So your opinion is: you don't like 19s, you think it's a stupid idea.

That's fine, you are entitled to your opinion. Sadly, where you go wrong is to start lumping us all together as 'schmucks.' Then you go on to make negative comparisons about a car that you own and that I own. I bought my RL because I fucking liked it. I drove LS430s, CLK430s, M45s, etc. and nothing made me happier than the RL.

So if you're unhappy that you bought the nicest car you could afford by pathway of 'schmuck' that's on you...it isn't why I'm here...and I'm sure most of the people on this forum would take offense to that.

Duuuuuuuuuuude! I like the new wheels...thank god...I was praying for your soul looking at the other setup. So...you used "butt hurt" on somebody? Man...you think he's gonna get mad? Like some BMX parent I know?
