  1. When I was 16 , a very good friend went through a stop sign and got hit by a Dino Ferrari . Killed on impact , his passenger was thrown onto the side walk and lost his helmet landing on the concrete slab , broke his skull and was never the same . I watched it all happen from the balcony of my apartment , like slow mo . Waste of 2 young lives , they were both 16 and my guess PTSD for the Ferrari driver for a long time . I owned 2 bikes at the time , put them up for sale the next day and have not been on one since . RIP Zmydust , gone too soon
  2. If you have a relationship with the dealer , they will sell you one . I bought 4 MB SUV’s the last 2 years , you are correct about the lease only for specific models and the discussion started out that way for the first purchase . I insisted and they obliged lol
  3. I had 2 GT’s , both V12 and they are very thirsty . No matter where I drove it was half a tank of gas so filling up every 2 days was a pain and main reason why sold my last one . Otherwise , the car is bulletproof . If I was to buy another one , I would get the V8
  4. Delays mean issues , very important for the Urus to be spot on out of the box . I am sure whatever it is will get sorted out , I saw a white demo at the dealership this week , it is a winner
  5. Derestrict an F1 car and see what happens. 919 going to the ring, it will shatter Bellof's record of 6.11 , my guess around 5.30
  6. It is fixable but gonna be expensive. The wheels are way too big , they look like 20' and 21' , otherwise the car looks ok.
  7. You drive like a pussy , will never have brake issues even with POS countach
  8. Wheels Do you have a recent picture of yourself ? I really wanna see what you like like . You can pm me if you want . Thanks
  9. It is still a good looking car after all these years and having driven the 5 sp and auto, i think the auto is better suited to the car.
  10. It is a dangerous stretch to overtake people , probably miscalculated and someone paid the ultimate price, what a shame.
  11. I believe we have covered this before , especially with Eric and his pathetic choice of clothes😄 . Unltimately , one can choose to dress however they wish , wanna look like a street person , may the force be with you . Some people are vain and some are not . I have noticed that walking into high end dealerships looking seriously underdressed has become a fad , almost a challenge to belittle the sales people and challenging their ability to classify who is a buyer and who is not . A good experienced salesperson , and I do emphasize good , will take a stab at any potential client walking into the dealership . You do get judged by how you dress and a first impression is very important . At the same time , the exact opposite happens quite a bit , when bullshit people visit dressed to the t and waste everybody ‘s time acting like a big shot . An experience salesman will see through the bullshit pretty fast but if you don’t engage , you will never find out and possibly miss on solid oppprtunities.
  12. It is a winner, will be a huge success and bring in lots of $$ .
  13. You share information that is wrong , you get corrected and yet you are still arguing your point . I was also offered a centenario , have zero interest , just a money grab and I hate the looks to top it up. If in your opinion a 20hp increase with a minimal reduction in weight and an ugly body is worth the massive premium of the centenario , then by all means get one . Whatever performance gain is achieved on the centenario , if any , will be minuscule . You cannot gauge a 20 or 30hp increase in the street , the big difference maker would be the torque . And if you want to track the car , the biggest gain in performance , given that all the aventadors and centenario share the same platform , will come from unsprung weight , I E , lighter wheels to begin with , and that is neither practical nor realistic for a street car as they would bend way too easily .
  14. There are so many erroneous statements in your post that I cannot assume that you have any credibility or experience with these cards and your knowledge of performance is quite poor . You are repeating magazine guotes and using them as a reference for your discussions with real owners with plenty of experience with exotics and some with solid track experience . My experience with magazines is shit , they all have their agenda and whoever pays them more gets a more favourable review , to top it , they will not even publish correct data if it is not aligned with their agenda . I don’t read any of them . This board is a rough place , VCR very eloquotently and diplomatically refuted all your claims , alpha for drustrated at your lack of comprehension of the basics and you kept repeating yourself like a broken record , like nothing sunk in . It is irritating at the least and I would suggest that when you get into a debate about anything , have your facts straight , because If they are not , you will be called on it an look like a wanker And last but not the least , you are entitled to your opinion , it might or might not be right and not everyone will see eye to eye with you . You want your opinion to the be the reference , even if it is wrong , so expect the backlash and if you can’t handle it , don’t post here.
  15. If i recall correctly, when aventador came out, Lambo indicated they would not make more than 4000 units before replacement would be in place . I believe more than 8000 aventadors have left the factory so far , so much for branding . If it sells, milk it and sell as many as you can.
  16. Lambo is not in the business to build collector cars , it is all about the money now . Guaranteed minimum 1000 units , pump them out while there is interest .
  17. Anyone who wants to drive their car aggressively on track should have a full rollcage . One should look at pictures of rolled cars without a rollcage, the roof caves in completely. On the other hand, drive at 7/10 to 8/10 , make sure the car has had a good safety check by a good mechanic beforehand , it should be an enjoyable experience. All of this is assuming one knows what they are doing .
  18. The last time I was at summit point , one of my co drivers got into an accident where the driver of the other car died as he went into the trees . As can be seen on the video , no barriers around the the track which makes the circuit very dangerous . I will never go back there
  19. I knew you would come around . You are welcome .
  20. Deserves to be pushed off a cliff .
  21. So you find a cool cop and hang him by posting a video . Whoever posted the video is a moron.
