BTW, your shots on the top of Pikes Peak are pretty amazing too.
Nice pic of the S5 at elevation, is that Mary's Peak near Corvallis, the highest point in the Coast Range? There is is great road (Alsea Hwy.) from Philomath to Waldport, I call it the Tail of Oregon, with due respect to The Dragon, great drive!

No, it is from the top of Bald Peak, but Alsea Hwy looks pretty cool too. I might have to go check it out soon.

Saw this on TAG's FB:

Personally, I am not a fan of the carbon fiber spoiler on the white tho but those wheels look nice:

Not a big fan of the wheels although I admit that is banging hot.

After a week or so with the Summer set up (mainly so I could snap a few pics), it's back to Winter mode.

Abt HAS, custom spacers (12mm F / 15mm R) and Michelin A/S3+ on stock Cavos.

Still thinking about a light tint....but want to maintain some contrast. Thoughts? 50%?

Certainly needs tint but 50% may be too much, probably fairly legal in your area judging by the looks of your other steed...so carry on.

50% is the lightest available. The car in the background is 20%.

Gotcha...I generally go 35% on all my cars and that seemed the sweet spot around here.
