Loving all the cars posted. Wish I didn’t love cars so much. Or I had more money, and more garage space. Not complaining. Just sayin.

I knew that McLaren was short lived. I really did and do love and admire it. But it’s a dangerous car in my opinion. I just didn’t feel great really moving it. And the tech is in the dark ages in comparison to what is offered today.

Hottest car on the market. But I don’t stand by my cars. I drive them. And I’m a decent driver. Even so, I readily admit it was too much car for me.

Similar to my watch game. I’m forever in the search for the perfect one. The go anywhere, do anything, looks good, feels good kind of vehicle. I found that with the 911 Turbo S Cab. I’ll keep that car forever.

I’ve just found another car that’s super different. But similar in that it’s not great at any one thing. But it’s a car that does nearly everything. Combined with the 911, I truly get all I can ever need.

It won’t be in the “keep for life” category though. It’s not my build. I love the spec, but it’s a 2020 with minimal warranty left, again, not my build. So I’m hopeful I’ll keep this until I can get my own spec. Problem with that is it’s a 2 year wait, and a big dealer markup. I’m not into it.

So this’ll be my daily for a bit. Fast. Very very fast. Loud, but if I’m in soft/daily mode, it’s just like any other car. Well, sort of. But hit sport mode and it’s a snarling animal that just wants to go. It’s also got a ton of space, winter driving capability, and it’s haf. But all thing considered it’s relatively under the radar. Mostly. Im comparison to most exotics, very few folks have any idea what this is. Which is why I appreciate the color so much. Because the bright colors really change the game with this thing.

Anyway. Sorry for the long post. I just think a lot. And I love cars.

Nice choice Seth! Very fun and practical for a daily driven exotic. I didn’t realize there is a 2 year wait for these. Wow.

Put up my 430 a couple months back when I ordered my 296. Got choked up on the way home and my lovely wife motivated me to get another mid engine while we await the new car.



She’s a good one (the wife, but the F8 is sweet too)

Those things are super comfy and fast. Great choice. The other of my company just bought one. He loves it. It’s the biggest in the Mercedes lineup.

Here is my new toy. Still have a few more things to do to it but it’s getting there. These things are incredibly hard to find. The last batch is on the bottom of the ocean.
