2025 Additions: 2010 599 HGTE Rosso Fuoco Considering how rare and special the 812 GTS and DBS is, I started looking at 599's to have a V12 that was perhaps not as precious/irreplaceable. Considering the value proposition and that I absolutely love my other performance cars of the era is seemed...

EVO has given a perfect 5-star to every single Porsche GT product ever made, and to every single 911 turbo except the 992.1, which broke the streak with a 4.5 stars.

Power to weight ratio is down, but it goes faster round a track then the Evora 400+ due to wider track. They probably should have released the i4 with 500hp, but I'm happy with the V6 regardless

Starline makes an immobilizer. I have in my Emira and works flawlessly

Emira V6 has all the markers to be a future modern classic: -Looks -Sound -Rarity -6 Speed -Low maintenance -Last of the line/no replacement -Low entry cost

All of the common problems with the car mentioned above, I also didn't really see as problems, and started to question the journalistic integrity of a lot of reviews that were so negative about the cars. I had one issue with the HVAC controller, which was replaced under service bulletin, but...

Cars: 2009 DBS 6 Speed Coupe Jet Black. Probably my most complete car. Hydraulic steering, RWD, NA V12, timeless looks, manual gearbox and very few made, so feels very special. Had since 2016, never will let go 2005 F430 F1 Grigio Titanio. Last of the partially analog Ferrari era, love the...
