Only $10 for all 2024 SX, MX, and SMX series (regularly $30).
However the track data for any of these is 99% irrelevant for the 99% that buy these types.
At the Ferrari challenge, the cars are fancy looking race cars. There is zero luxury about them.
The whole inside is safety related. All the suspension etc is pure race car.
Its all tin, aluminum, a seat, full cage, and a 5 point harness and a fire extinguisher and window nets.
Basically a stripped car. Most all strip the dash and have an aluminum panel with minimal gauges.
A few leave the stock dash but most dont.
The one I drove was like getting into a tin can. And inside the noise is deafening without ear plugs also.
Jefro and others keep harping on this and that is faster at a track etc.
Truth is all those cars are shit compared to a tiny open wheel school car with 1/4 the HP.
People buy what they like, not track numbers they will never see or use. Ever.
This should prove interesting. A new entrant in the hyper-car class from Aston-Martin / Red Bull Racing / Adrian Newey.
Should feature very low curb weight and serious aero.
And both 'street' and 'track' versions.
The Shop
The motorcycle guy thats a baller is Bernie Ecclestone.
He started out building motorcycles, selling parts and became a dealer before cars.
Loved the car for the most part, but I can definitely say that I only want to own an Audi that's under warranty! It was a 2001, I think, so it was close to a 9 year old car when we got it. Under 100K miles when we first got it, but a couple years later it started to quarter and dollar us quite a bit. It skipped the nickels and dimes!
But on the road it drove fantastic and the AWD actually felt better than my son's Subaru.
Very few people even take the time to learn all the various modes let alone how the car behaves in the various nanny modes. Shit, even the infotainment and nav systems are over the top. I'm intimately familiar with the numerous settings on my Z06 but I don't even bother trying to learn how to use anything but the basic features on the "entertainment" system. The car I have ordered has apple car play so I'm hoping it will be easier...
Pit Row
Ive had 4 Lexus IS AWD since 2007 and never a hiccup.
I almost got an RS 7 but the Lexus just has never let me down and looks more sports car to me.
The old lady is the car buff. She has cars in 3 cities she works.
Shes been researching what nobody has mentioned
The new Acura NSX for her Miami scoot replacing a
Lexus Rc 350 F sport.
I love driving this car. It hauls ass (V-8) and handles unreal. I love the 6-speed SMG tranny with paddle shifters, but it's sketchy as fuck. Fucking Beemers are ridiculous maintenance costs, but Boris gives me pretty nice loaner cars. Last time it was a brand new 640i coupe that I drove to Vegas for the Monster Cup. So much fun and badass.
Funny watching a guy tapped out on what is probably a 1000cc sport bike, and that turbo 'busa goes right on by him ON ONE WHEEL! :-)
My kind of machine.
I can tell not many of these people can afford a sports car hence why they want the Ferrari and Lambo.
One of the days I drove my 89 Mustang to the class. Stiff roadrace suspension, Baer brakes, 450hp supercharged motor, etc. It rode like a dump truck, accelerated really well, stopped great and handled pretty good. At least I thought so until I got back into it to drive home after driving the Formula Mazda all day. The damn Mustang felt like a boat! It floated and handled like a 70's Caddy, had brakes of mush, a steering wheel connected to a jello-filled steering rack and seemed downright relaxing to drive!! At least it still accelerated well.
That completely changed my mind on what a "performance street car" really offered.
But you should be able to pull the radio out, and find the speed sensor wire. Put a switch in line of the that wire. Now you can play DVDs and input GPS cordinates while driving.
I've done it to more than one car
Saw a beautiful Jag XJL on the street yesterday. When I google it, I guess the 2017 isn't in production yet.
