  19. The car and the video is so good I came back a day after to watch it once more. Importing US cars to Europe makes it quite expensive to the point where Corvettes for example are considered a rather exotic sports car here in the eastern part and some solid spec Escalade is $50k+ more expensive than brand new high spec X7/X5M or $30k more than RSQ8, but if I ever got to the point where I could comfortably afford importing some US cars, this one would make the list together with a C8 Vette and a Viper, preferably ACR. I've been in love with red CTS-Vs for a while now and although I prefer it's looks over the CT5-V, I would take the CT5-V over it every single time now. To me it looks like it's already more popular than the CTS-V, I bet the parts will be more accessible in the future and the option to get the manual is just a cherry on top. I'm all for automatic transmissions in daily commuters and the CT5-V would be a lovely one for that but one thing I do not care a tiny bit about when it comes to all the sports sedans & wagons is the launch, some sprints times and precision. This is why I no longer have interest in the Germans such as RS6, M5 or E63 because if I ever were to have my pockets so deep that I'd buy a boat of such size as a daily commuter, I wouldn't care about the precision and ability to beat basically every single thing from one light to the next one. The fun factor on the long way back home is the thing that matters to me. RWD + 6 speed manual in a nearly 2 tonnes American yacht with far over 600hp on board seems like a perfect choice that ticks all boxes for me (almost... I wouldn't want to drive it in winter if that was my only car though). Absolute beast and I'm in love with every single inch of it.

  31. What's the deal with yellow tinted left side mirror? Also, how come it is registered despite the roof thingy and on a side note, what is the legal standpoint on red headlights like that Camaro had? I am fully with you on the closing words. I've been more of a 996 guy myself for the past year or two, while 991.2 has the perfect modern 911 looks in my eyes, but if someone asked me what a 911 is, a 997 would be what I'd show them. I think it's a perfect embodiment of that phase between early 2000s and what we refer to as modern cars right now, I can't imagine it being done any better. I am not the biggest fan of grey paintjobs, neither I am a fan of dark chocolate (or "espresso") leather, but despite these things this 911 is out of this world. I love all the chrome/polished aluminum details, I love the finish on the doors and the seats, I absolutely admite the seatbelts, the carbon intake is a highlight under the "hood" no doubt, but the thing that makes it look so spectacular is the rear end as a whole. Rear bumper together with these IDEAL exhaust tips and this duck tail tie together in a way I can't even describe. Just stunning. It is worth mentioning that it sounds really good too, nowadays the Carreras sound like complete vacuum cleaners, at least here in the EU and I totally forgot that a Carrera could sound that good. I had no idea such version existed and now I am absolutely in love with it and want one bad, and I mean real BAD. Screw any other newer 911, this is what I want.

  39. From being excited to watch a yellow 911, through "what the hell is Tedward ranting about again" to contemplating my entire existence after sticking through 2 minute long blooper. What an emotional rollercoaster. I wish you to put some racing tires on your Civic and take it to the track. You don't need to push it to the limit and being anxious about crashing it. You don't need to rebuild it for tracking purposes. Just take it as it is and give it a go, while being reasonable and prioritizing fun over some kind of minmaxing - there's always a bigger fish anyways. I was unsure why I went to uni to study CS, especially that I always dreamed of coming up with some amazing/gamechaning product/solution/service that would make me wealthy right away and my own business would be the only business I put my work towards throughout my entire life. After 3 years of uni out of the way already, I'm happy with the path I've chosen. In the meantime I found myself to enjoy car detailing and I plan on landing a regular 9-5 job for a couple years as I collect some money to buy a garage and open up some small scale detailing business on the weekends. If that goes according to plan, I will be more than happy and who knows what's gonna happen from there. I like to listen to your rants every now and then, you help me quite a bit to remind myself what am I here for and get my head straight. On a side note, what a pretty specimen. Plastic covers over the gauges look spotless and so does the steering wheel. Looks like it's in phenomenal condition.

  48. I was hoping you're going to show us this one when I saw you pull up to Bond Group in the Speedster. 😁 Definitely one of my dream cars and one of the cars that sparked my love for them. I remember sometime back in 2010s when I saw the 1st gen in that brown paint at Krka National Park pulling up to the parking lot. The wow effect was there. Fast forward a couple years later and the 2nd gen comes out - a true beauty and a dream car right away. Years have gone by and my love for it is still the same as it was back in the day. One thing that R8 does better than Huracan, or maybe even better than any other car is this steering wheel and center console. On this one the wheel is exceptionally good due to being two tone. I've never seen one like this in an R8 before and I'm in love. I also love that the only screen in there is the one on the dash and the center console is nearly nonexistent. In no world if I were to get one, I would think to myself "It's a good car, but I wish I could afford a Huracan instead". I don't think R8 lacks anything, even if you ignore the price difference. It is an amazing car as much as a Huracan is. For the past month I've been in my black on black on black era, but I know it's temporary. With that said - this is a gorgeous spec. This shade of blue is already my favourite choice for an R8 when I'm not in my head with the batman specs and I think this two tone interior matches it perfectly. Blue stitching to match the paint job is a cherry on top. I wish it was present on the seatbelt too. All that topped of with what is imo the best rim choice available for an R8, and in the best colour possible too! If I had ~$150-180k to spend on a car that would match all my needs (so that probably would have to be a 2nd car choice sadly), an R8 would be a no-brainer and this one in particular would definitely be one of my first R8s, if not the first overall, that I would take a look at. Couldn't care less about RWS if I could drive something that looks and sounds that good. This vid goes on my special playlist that I will definitely look at if I become somewhat wealthy. πŸ˜…
