As for me, I passed on the F12 for now, despite the sage advice received. The 812 is kind of growing on me and I’d like to spend more time driving both before making a decision.

In the meantime, I’ve jumped ship from Audi to the darkside. Has full leather, which was more important to me than I would have thought lol.

I guess the only remaining question is Akra or Remus, and maybe whether to replace the black grill trim, ha…

Crewe at its best (it’s a motorcar actually).

Also 100% original

[jamesbondOO7]

Lovely F90.

Marina bay blue? Definitely keep black trim and go Akra.

Why does everyone always seems to take a shot of their car in front of their house? Subtle brag?

Lol! Oops, god knows what I meant to type, between autocorrect and my old phone. Beautiful Rolls Royce either way.

Really cool old Land Rover as well. Always though these were cool.

SII (here SIIA) are the nicest with the headlights inside, right on both sides of the grille (which, BTW, can be used as a grill for a BBQ). This one came from the Mozambican war, all original, just proper maintenance.

Indeed

And in a world of hatchbacks (and 911s) be bold, be different.

Got married to my HS sweetheart back in November and used my 993 as the get-away car. Finally got some pics back from the wedding photographer but here is a shot he took of the car

Oh boy, this is exciting! Are you keeping the GT3 or is it the sacrificial lamb for this monster?

I am not sure yet.... lol. My wife rolls her eyes when I say that because she thinks she knows how this is going to go down....

I love my GT3 and it being PTS/manual/did ED on it with my wife. Was my dream car for a very long time and not sure I could get rid of it. Let alone the RS being the only one, where I feel the GT3 is more versatile, albeit not much. I'll have to get the RS in my hands, do some track days and see how I feel about it after some driving there and the street. The reality is I do not drive the GT3 much as it is besides to and from the track and drives here and there. So if I'm going to have a toy, why not have the better toy? Other part of me says the RS will be short lived as it may just be too much to do both with.
