    Yup no surprise there, there is a QP in Italy with nearly twice that mileage, and still going.

    Very nice. Too bad there are no pictures of the interior of the 'old' 4p.

    Also, the old one looks better than the new one, at least in that configuration. The wheels on the new one are too bland.

    I'd sure be interested to know how many clutches he has been through in 150K miles! I notice in the article he even says:

    "The old DuoSelect system uses clutches which unfortunately have to be replaced periodically, but that’s part of the price you pay for enjoying a real manual gearbox mated to a high-revving 400 horsepower V8."

    I was thinking the same thing. Every 30k miles? He's had the clutch redone 5 times?
