oufan2929 Report post Posted November 27, 2017 Would you guys say the performante is a car that you can just hop in and go run errands on a lazy day and it's comfortable to do that? Or is this car more of an event car that you "have to be in the right mood"? Strongly considering it, but wanting something that is kind of an all around car including reasonably comfortable. The 720s and Perf are both at the top of the list... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed Demon Report post Posted November 27, 2017 Agree 100% with SV-N-IT... Practical, easy to drive, easy to park and sounds orders of magnitude better in Sport and Corsa than any turbo car including the 720S. Quite street friendly in Strada (though I never drive in that mode except when I am sneaking in late at night without waking up the kids!). But at the same time, it is a sense of occasion car too! I look forward to driving it each time! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 720s and Perf are both at the top of the list...If I had to drive 6 hours or more I wouldn't hesitate to take the Perf. Over the weekend I went to OfficeDepotMax to get a 15 pack of cardboard storage boxes, and stuffed them into the passenger seat. This was after getting some tools at Lowe's, and before hitting the farmer's market for some fruit. Then again, I have a history of this kind of thing...

DoctaM3 Report post Posted November 28, 2017 Where can you buy that lever tool? Any idea of the cost? If the AV-SV’s centre lock wheels offer a hint, highly doubtful. The hub/tool to tighten/loosen the centre lock is included but not the torque wrench itself. That piece is huge. It’s like arm’s length of a 6ft person and has a substantial weight. Edit: here's a pic. The circular thing is the tool that fits on the centre lock so that tells you how big the wrench is.

737Drvr Report post Posted November 29, 2017 Cheers to all of the current and future owners. There isn’t a bad spec for this car. Loving all of the color combos and options I’m seeing. Makes me want more than one. Mine will be here mid December via air freight. Back to my roots with Oriancio Borealis—the color my first ‘08 SL.

emanon Report post Posted November 29, 2017 Where can you buy that lever tool? Any idea of the cost? Any decent torque wrench will work provided it's rated high enough. I don't know the lambo spec, but P cars are 600nm (works out to 444 ft/lbs). You'll want something rated to at least 600 ft-lbs to do it safely. Snap-On version is $800. Contact a local distributor and they will bring you one if you want it. https://store.snapon.com/US-Torque-Instrume...ve-P891640.aspx For home use, you're probably better off with a gear multiplier and a more normal spec torque wrench. https://store.snapon.com/Geared-Head-Multip...g--P634899.aspx + https://store.snapon.com/US-Torque-Instrume...b--P874542.aspx The 50-250 wrench can be used on all kinds of more typical things. The big one is cool but with a 120 ft/lbs minimum it's pretty much useless for the average person, outside of torquing your centerlock wheels. Be sure you read the factory manual on installing the wheels, many times they have a torque step process you should follow.

cake Report post Posted November 30, 2017 ^ +1 on following OEM torque step procedure. We also index the center locks (mark them with special paint) which shows at a glance if they have moved. Learned this from our pilot friend who is also a certified airplane mechanic and does a lot of work on his own cars (and helps us with our cars). Our Porsche tech indexes all bolts/fasteners under the car to see quickly if anything is out of adjustment. I would NOT use an index mark as a substitute for torquing wheels with five lug bolts - but with center locks it makes sense since you generally don't need to re-torque them after spirited driving. If they are moving , something is probably not right... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
