Well, here it is.. Our first official shoot of the season and I think it’s a great way to kick off the summer and the preview of things to come this summer. When this car was completed last year and it came to the beyond meet for one of the first times and Benny and Mike popped the hood, I knew I wanted to shoot it. Turns out illmotion got one of the first cracks at it and it turned out sick. I can’t even begin to describe the craziness of this car and the attention to detail that has gone into it.

From the F20 swap to the S2k cluster to the interior and exterior, this car has become complete perfection. There are boundaries that many people stop at to reach their ideal goal and image in a car – which is perfectly fine. It’s when guys like Benny don’t settle for those boundaries and they achieve something that just pushes the bar higher for the rest of us.

I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking. Just remember where you saw it first 😀

Notice Benny’s 350Z on Volk LE37’s in the back. We wanted to get his other whip in there as well.

Orido wheel.. wait what’s back there…?

S2k clusterrrrrr
