Add Porsche to the list of car companies that are dead to me...

Paddles? Electric stearing?
I'm done!

Guess I get a 997.2 GT3 RS and be one with em

....aside from the CGT of course

don't you get it??? we will take you to cuba, get the towel, and the water, you will comply. Paddles and electric steering!!! We will retrofit the lambo. Resistance is futile.

Face it you may have to buy a Corvette to get a manual.

Go buy another NSX, and call it a day.

a Vette or Viper is looking more and more as a possibilty for a newer car. id buy one before any new ferrari, lambo, or porsche.

But till then Im still huntnig down a LP640, XJ220, another CGT, a GT3 RS, and maybe someday a F40 IF prices ever come back down. So I got a few older cars to gobble up and to hold me over for some time

even then, I would still have to consider a Zonda (in 2027) or Koenigsegg either by saving up, or selling a few cars for one of the two...or both

Your flirtation with an old school Lambo was short lived!



No training wheels here:

I still want one lol
I just have to drive one first. It was a toss up between a Countach and 512TR for a "cheap" 100k or less car. Not sure I want the maintance and reliability issues of either though

I don't understand this trend at all.
Are there really more people who prefer to shift 0.01 seconds faster than to shift manually?

Yes. That and its easier. Sad but true.



Also, I would like to add...


My generation is COMPLETELY oblivious to the "weird looking 3rd pedal in my car." It's as if the knowledge of what a manual transmission is, not just how to operate one, is completely dying.

The exotic car these days is simply designed to show up at the club, not the race track

so where do you stand on power assisted steering, and brakes??? how about power windows?

With that argument, go ahead and add fuel injection.

Lol, who needs a roof, headlight, or wipers blades too?

Btw, th xj220 doesn't have power stearing or brakes....well it doesn't have much of anykind of brakes all together man up! Lol
