Sometimes you feel most alive when you're cold, wet, miserable, sore, tired and a little scared. Metaphorically, for him that was one of those times. I've been on the edge of a named storm in the Indian Ocean on a sailing ship, all hands at 3:00am, out in my boxers and a harness, soaked, scared, bruised and so high on…

Like this one from Pebble Beach last year.

I thought it was just one of the series I or the first 99 that had the covered headlights. but you could certainly be right!

Loved those as a kid. 80's Italian James Bond.

Lancia Flaminia Zagato

That's because they're there to go fast not look good. Rubber is lighter than wheel, even if it's a magnesium wheel...

No that's just one of the worst cars ever! Certainly in top 15 of ugliest. And that's saying something! Who came up with this idea? And why oh why did BMW do it too??? :(

Citroen SM. Take a cloud riding French icon and stuff a Maserati engine in it. Then take away the brake pedal and add a BUTTON on the floor instead. Pillows for headrests, looks like only the french can do, sounds only the Italians can do. So wonderful yet so terrible.

Italian but understated.

Narrow bodied 3.0ltr 911 RSR. 204mph at Daytona and bouncing off the rev limited so long it threw the fan belt. Faster than a Gen1 997 Cup Car at every track it went to. 385bhp and weighed around 1900lbs.

The German Porsche one is fantastic as it has most of the exclusive options as well. Of course you either have to know German, go back and forth to Google translator or wing it… AM and Bentley are the next two best ones. Ferrari is pretty darned good as well though they need to have more views of the interior as it's…

What about Chapman's Peak, South Africa?

I have about 4,000 laps at Mosport with my fastest lap being a low 1:28 back before all the run-off was extended. If you can drive fast there, you can drive fast anywhere. Corner 1 is the most scary for me and you can “almost” take it flat in a lot of cars, it just takes balls of steel. Ditto Corner 4. Corner 8 years…

1947 Franay - Bentley with the full red frog skin interior.
