Will BMW not paint it any colour you want for a price?
Then you don't need to have a whole brand new car stripped down after 29 miles.

It say's that it can take nearly a year to get the exact one you want so i gues they just brought a new one in any colour avalible and as the car was getting stripped any way it made sense to spray it while apart, granted they prob wernt planing on taking every nut and bolt off at first untill had to be sprayed but this way they no how good the paint job is to

considering the guy has 2 veyrons and an enzo, i think money's no object to him. so he'd rather pay someone 50k to do this in a couple of months than wait a year for an individual one.

So much bollocks in the write-up. Reads like a detailing thread.
"Our factory trained technicians immediately disassembled the entire car and painstakingly meticulously stored each part on industrial warehouse shelving"
You mean you took the engine out and put it on a shelf?
"not a single staff member wasted even a precious second between tasks"
That's what they tell you.

"A car meant to compete for attention with Nelson’s supercars would not succeed in its task with only the M3’s standard power level on tap. ESS Tuning’s supercharger kit was perfectly suited to the task, offering bulletproof reliability and power levels usually reserved for exotics. "
While it was in bits, we decided to make it faster.

"This gives the headliner, along with some other interior pieces we will reveal later a nearly irreplaceable status."
"master fabricators placed beautiful welds on the base plates"
Check the cage plate though
"THIS DEVICE IS NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED TO PROTECT OCCUPANTS IN THE EVENT OF A ROLL OVER OR CRASH"

Its American though, they have to put that on there just to protect themselves from some dickhead that buys a cage, crashes there car then tries to sue them for a billion dollarz after they are killed to death.
the line directly after the pic did make me chuckle though -

The welding was OK, but hardly worthy of a signature of amazingness.
