Personally, I like the car in pictures or in person, but the truth is you really do need to see these cars in the flesh. I hate everything Bangle designed...except this car. It just works when you see it in person.

Uhh...you list your current cars as follows: Current Cars: 07 997 Turbo | 04 GT3 | 05 Cayenne Turbo | 99 Boxster | 06 M5 | 06 Bentley Continental Flying Spur | 06 Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT | 07 335i Coupe | 03 Range Rover | 05 G55 | 98 H1 | 05 SLK55 | 03 CLK55 | too lazy to name the rest

Would it really be a stretch to have both? They are two completely different vehicles. I don't see any true 2 seat coupes listed in your garage. This thing is as fun to drive and more fun to look at then your 04 GT3... nice collection, why not enhance it.

Maybe the previous iteration did (which I liked as well), but this current version looks no more like a boot then a Viper, a TVR or any number of long hooded, 2 seat sports cars...

Tell me what about this...



...looks like a boot?

I'm trying to cut back on the 2 seaters since i have a big family (6 of us). The 335i is my daily driver and I don't think I would find myself comfortable driving in that size (Z4) of a car everyday (I'm 6"2, although I do know of people of my height that own this car). Maybe I'll get one later on but not right now; although I would have to disagree with you on the fun to look at part. I think the GT3 is still more fun to look at; well at least IMO.

BBS LMs the only way to go... all that OEM CSL style wheels just isn't good enough.

CSL and ZCP wheels are both cast BBS wheels... in fact, the rears are exactly the same, and share the same part#. Kinda disappointing, considering that it's such a good looking wheel. Heck, BBS CH are cast too... surprising for Ferrari...

Go for it, Watt... it's a tight little coupe that's perfect for DD. And the harder you push it, the funner it gets. Around town, thottle can be a little touchy/sensitive, but you figure it out soon enough. And it holds a golf bag just fine... some have claimed two, though I'd prob have to be two smaller bags.
