    1/2 Ton PIckup as I'm in Texas, M6 Grand Coupe, 911 Turbo S and waiting on the F8 to replace the 911. The M6 is an amazing car!

    M8 is gone. Replaced by Taycan. M8 was a great car. Very fun to drive.

    That's the kind of digression I like! [emoji2] Our 450 has the 6.7 L Power Stroke, and I just love driving it around town. I'm not gonna lie, this is Texas and having the biggest, baddest pickup truck in town comes with undeniable bragging rights!

    Have you been off road in the Baja yet? If so, what are your thoughts on it?

    I am a Landie fanboy and take my Disco regularly off road. Thus, I believe that your V8 Defender needs proper off road tyres; I would suggest Goodyear Wranglers. What a machine though!

    I pick my 458 probably this week, but I'll likely drive that occasionally sharing time with the 430, 355, 64 & 68 Vettes... Yep gotta a problem... Lol

    no off-road stuff yet in the Shelby Baja. The 1500 mile trip to pick up my Malibu was a blast however. Will try some off roading maybe sand dunes in Cali this summer.

    Truly a beautiful car. I absolutely love it ..... but, the leaf stuck in the front grill is a distraction.

    My daily is a 2014 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S (Carmine Red on Black), and wife has a 2019 Porsche Cayenne S e-hybrid (Biscayne Blue over Tan). Both are fun as hell as a daily.

    When not driving those or the 458 Spider, I drive my 1996 Porsche 993 Twin Turbo manual (Guards Red over Black), 2002 BMW M3 Vert manual supercharged by Active Autowerke, and my wife's 2002 Jeep Wrangler X manual, customized to make her a bad ass. ;-)

    All good, all enjoyable and all driven this week! Welcome spring!!!

    Oh, and my name is on the list for a build to order for a 2023 Porsche 911 Turbo S to replace the M3 as I am going to sell it after 13 years and a complete engine rebuild. Life's short...gotta start moving cars around. My curiosity is piqued with the Ferrari SUV, but I'm haven't seen much news on that lately.

    I agree. Our previous 2012 Bianco Avus FF daily had shields, and I think the lines might be cleaner without them. Also helps that the 2014 example’s calipers are black instead of yellow. Currently having the orange reflectors painted white, too.

    Thats a clean look for sure.
    I liked mine with shields with matching calipers. But the FF/Lusso is probably the only example where less is more given the shape.
