    Enthusiast must mean martyr?

    Nobody “needs” these cars we are discussing.

    Ha!

    I am definitely not an enthusiast either. I am enthusiastic, however! :)

    I probably had my first sports car before you were born. Who appointed you the judge in defining an enthusiast? Can you even drive a manual transmission?

    All because he said it doesn’t make it so. He also said it a long time ago- much has changed. He also hated the F12- which watching his video was very odd. Regardless, I owned and loved my 458 for 7 years. I sold it because the brakes sucked and occasionally failed. The steering besides being hyper active was somewhat numb. It was and still is a great (and imperfect) car. The engine was peak 8 cylinder N/A.
