Again...it's your own mindset and brain to decide. As long as you don't die in it or get seriously injured "why care?" Life is simply too short to be upset by minor things as a car! Every day spend in agony is a lost day. A day spent dealing with a problem often leads to insights, solutions...

My recommendation...be a bit more filosophical about life... People nowadays expect that everything is perfect and mostly that everything is going their way. If it doesn't, they become real assholes... Look at the world in general and what is going wrong all over the world... it's the world we...

Talk about shirts and 'getting it wrong' ;-) Owning and having owned most of the very high end prestige car brands in the world...my Emira ranks in the top 5 of best cars I have owned or own (among F8 Tributo, 991.2 GT Manual, Donkervoort GTO, AMG GT). It needs Nitron, Braid forged wheels, some...

I wouldn't, as has no function, and if you want a really expensive car and get rid of money on CF add ons... Ferrari is you choice. I really appreciate the functional aspects of Lotus...relatively light weight, hydraulic steering, drivers car at relatively low price!

In times of high inflation prices are consistently a moving target where there is no good reference. It has become tremendously expensive to ‘build something’. My housing build project has gone up 100% in price over the last 4 years - just have to pay double from what it was 4 years ago. EU has...

Put an ‘airbag’ sticker on the seat, glue a condom on the inside and voila…you have airbags installed.

Just change the pully-size on the supercharger and you can easily get to higher rev-limit. You will slow down the supercharger so boost will come at higher RPMs. This is how the higher output Exiges and Evoras get to their increased power and higher rev limits. Engine is fine with stock...

On the paint: it is known that the original paint on the cars is very soft when it arrives from factory. I have seen and heard that even after the first wash, cars can be full of swirls - like in really bad! So I had my car first polished, then protected with glass coating and ppf on some parts...

Stock suspension is defined by the 'bean counters'...and engineers try to make the best out of what they get for the budget. Stock not bad, but good aftermarket is soooo much better. Just get a Nitron one way set with a bumpy road setup and you will love it, as quality is substantially better...

I think what we see is inflation spiraling out of control. Bitcoin, gold, Boeing employee salary raises....it shows what is really going on in this world. People need to get rid of assets they don't need and get liquidity for rising bills and cost. Exige V6 and Evora hold their value...

Recaro went bust recently….so not sure if you can still get them. Fantastically made seat! However as I am tall…190cms….I still like to sit deeper in the car. The cushions in the Recaro seats are quite thick. Hence I plan to swap the seats for a Tillett Emira set…they are a bit sleeker and...
