    I love to see cars all of the same color in the garage. Looks great!

    Yes, after I bought the Lotus, I thought the little woman needed something nice, she got to choose between a Lexus LS400 ultra luxury pack. and the Merc. She loves convertibles so she obviously chose the CLK63.

    Thanks for the compliment, I just think the GT2, CLK, and the Lotus look great in silver. Got a great deal on the 360 first, so that kind of started things. Next car must be yellow, but out of space, bigger house and bigger garage next. The garage floor is atrocious, my first attempt failed with the white stain. After we sell all our new Yorkie puppies, goal is nicer epoxy floor.

    Great looking GT2 and your 360 Spider looks great in Silver with the Modular Wheels. Nice collection and use your cars in good health.

    That GT2 is a real rocket, in fact when I got a ride in one, it seemed to me faster than a 997 GT2.1.

    Beautiful GT2, and cool silver theme you have going ;). I have the same going with 3 black cars between me and gf, so basically I just wash cars all day. Next car must be rossa corsa, so I've already limited the manufacturer's I can choose from :p.

    Keep us posted as you beef up that GT2 to 600hp. Just be careful with it, there's a reason they are called the widow makers!

    ETA: Wow that Ferrari looks wide next to the GT2. I need to measure my garges to make sure it'll get in there ok!

    Congratulations on the GT2. I really like the all silver theme you have going. From the first picture the 360 looks about twice as wide as the Porsche.

    I always ask for some feedback after some time behind the wheel. Would you compare the cars as an owner for us? Thanks a lot.

    Congrats on the GT2. I think it is a good time to buy this car.

    WRT color themes, cars I've kept the longest were black. Although I still like black, I've been in factory racing colors theme in the last few years:

    Porsche = white
    Ferrari = red
    Mercedes = silver.

    I really don't push my cars in the corners very hard, had a bunch of friend's put their's into curbs and brake accels and stuff.

    The GT2 is definitely faster than the 360, of course doesn't sound as cool, and never will as the Ferrari. You certainly don't get the thumbs up and pic requests because most people don't even know what a GT2 is.

    I am looking into some light tuning from Kevin at Ultimate Motor Werks here is Washington State.

    Only issue I have had so far is the front suspension squeeks a bit, there is a fix for it and I have already lubricated the front shock mounts, much quieter after that.

    Will post more as I drive it more, but most of my toys are only driven on the weekends.

    Yes heard about the GT1000, but it is 1000 hp only on race gas, not pump.
