If I were a young dad shuttling around some kids on weekends and driving to the office on weekdays, I’d want one of these. Every.Single.Time.

Awkward hand placement. First thing I noticed. Scrolled down. Saw this comment. Wasn’t disappointed.

Spoilers I hate: plenty

I’m excited. I also have one (edit: several) suggestions.

Ah, interesting. Thanks for clearing that up. I was intertwining stories. Here’s what I was thinking of: http://www.gtspirit.com/2012/09/22/bmw…

Fatal accident with Porsche test driver if my memory serves me correctly. Drove into the back of a lorry on a foggy morning at full pop. I could be wrong. Very sad.

I’d say a red LaFerrari. Because fuck ‘em. FBGM.

Thank you for posting that 964 Turbo. Made my morning.

I can take 12 hour days because I’m young (24) and have few commitments / responsibilities. I hope to make similar choices as you down the road. Let’s connect over Twitter -> http://www.twitter.com/alexotics_

I’m just curious to find out exactly how crazy it is. I work in finance. I’d say every second day is around 12 hours in the office and I come in on weekends on occasion. So, call it 65-75 hour weeks. Tesla for me would be worth if it wasn’t too much of an adjustment. But if everyone there is tied to their desks until…

Haha, fair enough. Cost of being part of a new brand / being an early adopter I guess.

Very interesting - and makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up.

Sure, brand awareness has sky-rocketed and everyone and their dogs wants a McLaren. But I wonder how many early customers they’ve managed to alienate...

12C owners have taken such a massive hit in resale value that it’s turned tons away from the brand. I’m talking about Ferrari customers who were looking for something fresh, bought a McLaren, and then lost $150k in 1-2 years. Even an entry-level Ferrari doesn’t depreciate that fast. Perhaps a Ferrari 612 or 456…

Interesting story. Applied for a Project Business Analyst position myself. Have been back and forth but have been receiving the same message. “It’s crazy here, and you will need to give it your all.” Recruiters seem underwater as well. Good on you for getting the offer. Saying that’s no easy feat is an understatement!

Great, relevant post, Doug. Here’s my current predicament:

Ah, the R8. It was so multifaceted. It didn’t just drive round, it could also fly, drift, plow snow, bbq, and swim.

That’s a great argument. People respected the 4-cylinders, you’re right. And I bet the M3 didn’t immediately wow anyone on a test drive. It also looked quite vulgar for the time I suppose.

Now the GT4 RS... there’s something we should all blindly throw money at. The GT4 base was sold out instantly. Imagine the RS...

Lovely topic. Excellent question. The general rule is that a final production number under 500, and especially under 200, makes a car an instant collector. Think Porsche Speedster or Sport Classic. People thought they were just insanely expensive 997s with a bit of tequipment flair. But production numbers were low and…
