You have there, my perfect car combo! I am the old generation of you: Range Rover Sport + F430 Spider.

I took the 458 (spider) out on track recently, wow what a car, best thing ever. I'll definitely have to pick one up soon.

This is a cool thread with the combination of great cars as well as magnificent wqtches
For me,Rolex and Mercedes Benz match better than other watch vs cars

I live in Stockholm so I don't own a car, I use public transport (like everyone else here) and ride bikes. None of my bikes cost as much as my Rolex, but my Specialized Enduro Expert Carbon 29 comes extremely close!

That is how the SS should look! Fat wheels and tires, the SS looks so wimpy without this mod, nice car you have.

Not sure if there's a balance anywhere there

My daily driver is a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder 4x4. Well, mostly in winter...

this is my summer car- 1993 300zx Twin Turbo... with 90,000 miles.



I think it is balanced with a Rolex, but probably not for most people.

Respect! Stockholm is one of the worlds most beautiful cities and would be destroyed if freeways were number 1 priority like in the USA. As much as I like driving a nice car on a traffic free road, I think the Europeans have got it right!

There have been plenty of tunes out for almost a year now that are adding 50hp/50lbft from piggyback form. Engine supposedly still has a lot in it still without swapping the turbo.

Love the the car, I think it's a great package. 4 doors, handles great, fast enough, great gas mileage, great brakes, DCT transmission and AWD for the winter.

Sorry for the late response, didn't keep up with the thread!

No was never in stone harbor this past summer. Sorry for the delayed response.

Actually just put on my winter wheels and tires. (Picture) Gotta love AWD!

Thanks guys!

Now I feel really stupid to be honest. I saw the covers above which reminded me of the CGT but the colors (everything looks so white) changed my mind.

I've been a fan of the Carrera GT ever since it came out. In my opinion it's one of the best sounding (super)cars of the past few decades. Beautiful car!

Pretty blurry photo of the engine bay...if it were more clear in the background, the carbon fiber in the engine bay would have given it away. The CF chassis makes this car one of the most direct handling visceral road cars ever made.
