    First...... wholly crap, just everything

    I’ve had 12 cylinder cars, BMW 850CSi, Jaguar e-type. Could never compare to this. I’ve been driving Porsche since the 80’s. I love my Panamera as a daily driver. Ok, enough history.

    I went back and forth for over a year, driving as many 458, 488, F12’s I could get my hands on. The 458 is a amazing car. However, in the end the F12 won. The design is just so elegant, the sound, Oh My God, and the power :)

    The 458 is fast and showy, I love the elegance of the F12. Ive read other people’s eloquent comments on the power and driving experience, so I won’t go on, if you are reading this, you already know.

    I love this car, when I’m not driving, I do actually go to the garage and look at it and touch it. Such a pleasure to clean it and polish it.

    I could write a book about how happy this car makes me, but I would bore you.

    I’m glad to be part of the group, maybe I’ll see you if you are in or around Los Angeles

    Oh my gosh, I'm the exact same way with my 812. We might might be brothers from different mothers.

    I was born into the car business, my dad was a dealer and a race car driver. These cars evoke new emotions .

    As much as I love Porsche, there is something incredibly special about Ferraris. Ferrari has found some mystical way of infusing metal, glass and rubber with passion.

    I've never quite understood people who have mobile detailers wash their play cars. I LOVE to hand wash my cars; it's like giving a beautiful woman a bath.

    Wow, you may be right, maybe we are related :)

    I love washing my cars every week. I was my wife and daughters cars too. I just enjoy it and I don’t like dirty cars. I was talking to a neighbor one day and he said I may be the first person he has seen in over 20 years living here that washes their cars.

    Porsche’s are incredible, when I drive my wife or daughters cars I can never get with the program, in my car, I am like a turtle in my own shell.

    The Ferrari experience is just incredible.
