    Nice line up for 15. Wow. I really like the 918. What a car. Congrats. I love how you can beat almost any car on the planet, and still pop the top. How does the 918 feel?

    It is the best thing on earth. Took me a good few k miles to really gel with it because it was just too accomplished. But when you get it on a big enough road and track it's just the best thing ever. If you interested have loads of good pics of it on my IG page. ��

    I do and I don't. I miss the engine sound (V10 just sings). I don't miss that most of the sound was best appreciated outside the car. I miss how planted the car was at any speed. I don't miss the edginess at the extreme when entering a turn. I loved the engine bay and interior. I don't miss the rather mixed metaphor exterior. I miss that you could just jump in and drive it... everything in it's place. I don't miss the seats on long trips. Finally, I don't miss the extreme value appreciation simply because it pushed it too far into the realm of collecting and discouraged real driving (plus the insurance coverage became extreme... for me anyway :))

    But obviously with the insane rise in value... there's proof a lot of people fancy one!! I still look at it in the garage and I'm still happy I switched. The 458S makes me cackle with delight.

    Happy New Year.

    Oh and the brakes... on the road, first generation ceramics... you had to be too careful.

    Which color have you chosen for your 488 GTB?

    PS: From which part of Germany are you from if I can ask?
