    Great video, very enjoyable. His enthusiasm is infectious. He's obviously tickled to be in the car and respects it. I did cringe each time he grabbed the door pocket to close the door. I was expecting him to have it in his hand as he drove away :)

    Definitely need to fix that seatbelt retractor if the seatbelt is to be of any use at all. :(

    I regularly rev 246GT to 8000. The engine is made to rev and above 7000 the sound is just epic. There is no rational reason not the use the full rev band on this car ... the engines are almost indestructible and made to be used.

    My 2L race engine is also run to 8000 constantly.

    Really, people who toddle around in expensive cars saving the revs for reasons unknown really have missed what it's all about.

    My $0.02
