  1. I have a 91 850i now. 6 speed manual. Bought it for looks back in 2014. It is up by $5k now. Hope it will be worth some money one day. It is definitely a GT car not a sports car.

  2. Sorry, guys, first gen Boxster is crap.

  3. Honda S2000 is a better car and a better value.

  4. $320k? No sir!! No car is leaving the dealerships for less than $360k and the blue with Orange car you drove has a sticker of $470K!

  6. +John Doe Pepsi is bad for you. Makes your teeth rot and are empty calories.

  7. Freuderick Frankenstein wouldn't argue with anything you said. Slow, well everything was relatively slow back in 1991. NSX was super slow by today's standards. But, you are right - it is very expensive to maintain. Every little things is $300+. Every medium thing is $1500+

  8. +John Doe Lol! I do recommend that you drive any 1999-2004 Boxster vs any 2001-2004 S2000 back to back. You'll see what I am talking about.

  9. +John Doe Me too. Mine is a 2006 997.1 Carrera S with a bunch of work done to it.

  10. +220volt74 2008 Boxster better be a huge improvement over the S2000! Only took Porsche 9 years to finally get it right. I was specially comparing 1999-2004 Boxster vs similar vintage S2000.

  11. I am guessing that they did not want to do the interior in Alcantara because it is not natural? But Alcantara looks sooooo much better! Sometimes re-inventing the wheel just does not pay off...

  12. Wow! Interesting. Styling is "nice" but not very original. It looks like INFINITI and Audi blended together. Mostly Infiniti in my opinion. Good to see that the interior is nicely dialed in. Maserati interiors for instance have been a huge letdown IMO, for example. Let's see what the price is gonna be. It will have to be at least 20% less than M5/E63 to be competitive. Otherwise, Alfa will be relegated to aggressive lease deals just like Maserati is in the U.S. The only people in the U.S. that are leasing Maseratis, in my experience, are non-car guys/gals who see the badge and hear the exhaust noise (mostly fake BTW) and get the car on that basis. Hopefully, Alfa will find a way to make this one a car for car guys/gals..

  13. 170mph in 1/2 mile for a 1600bhp Gallardo is waaaaayyyyy slow. I have been to a few of these 1/2 mile events and 1600bhp setup usually runs 185-202 mph. Stock aventador runs 162 and that's only 691bhp. All UGR Gallardos have lag issues off the line. Over 13 sec in 1/4 is very slow but I bet that even the fastest ones at these events are only running 11-12 sec. These cars are really 60-130mph or really more like 80-150mph cars. Now, UGR has supposedly fixed the lag issues with a sophisticated anti-lag for the new Huracan setup. We shall see...

  14. I am not a Ford fan at all. I have not owned any forwards other than an F2 50 diesel in almost 25 years. God willing, I will be buying this one. This is a monumental car and I seriously doubt that they will build something like this ever again.

  15. You just cannot make two big factual mistakes in the first 30 seconds of the video! CTS V was originally introduced as the 5.7 L naturally aspirated V-8. In the last generation of this car that went out of production in 2019 was NOT vailable with a manual.
