If the Mattar you are talking about is MO, do say hi for me. I knew your brother from my old M5 days. If so, say hi to him for me. He should know my car very well. It's the car BeastPower bought.
Fred Mo and i both remember you back in the old days in you silver DINAN M5 we did that drive together to LAGUNA where the guys at the forum had a place for all the M5's to park. back then i used to own an audi S4. i'll send your regards

As Lou stated, the 6 is confidence inspiring. It has better balance than a 996 due to the closer to 50/50 weight distribution. Surprisingly, it felt very tossable for a car of its mass. I have reached a stage in my life where I place a high value on comfort and quiet. I guess I'm getting old....
If the E55 had a nimble feel, I might be able to live with a single car. I still love my 996 and I guess I'm keeping it for the foreseeable future. Everytime I think I'm ready to sell it, I end up driving it and fall in love again.

I still think the M6 will be the ultimate car for me. With a nice set of Radenergie wheels and the right touches of course. Only time will tell...
I agree, my 6, especially the automatic one for some reason( i am a manual guy, but, the auto 6 I had felt much faster with its lower final drive and really feels made for an auto) just felt very tossable and flat when cornering. Here are some pics for you from Sema

Radenergie wheels on 645Ci







And here's one of My Z8 With The Radenergie

Oh yes, the FW27, from the team that got its *** kicked this year by Ferrari? Oh wait, and last year, and the year before, and the year before that...

Does that make Ferrari a better car manufacturer than Porsche too?

Yes, I also remind you that the street GT3-RS is 7 seconds faster than the CSL.

Don't even bring M3's into the mix... not even in the same league.
