  1. A lap record is a totaly different animal than a quick round round on the track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh8_2zQZ3xM

  2. The is a big problem ahead - the next German federeal election in 12 months. It is most likely that the CDU/CSU will form a coalition with the Green party and they said that the will insist on a speed limit for the Autobahn to reduce CO2 emissions. It is than all about the coalition negotiations, but the chances for a general speed limit are actually high.

  3. In the time of facebook, many have "friends" wich they even never have seen.

  4. Not my car, looks in all a bit cheap, esp. the plastic and front grill.

  5. MB SL63 - a convertible is the right car for southern Europe in the summer.
    1
  6. For that mileage in central Europe, esp. southern France and Monaco at that time, i would choose a SL63/65 - nothing beats a serious roadster on that classic roads in summer and the SL has there anything you need - a convertible. Power, sporty setup by a push on a button, GT (Gran Tourismo) class driving with a V8 or v12, etc., enjoying 1st class sea food on every taverna on the road. Thats la dolce vita....

  7. You should also visit next time G-POWER in Bavaria https://www.youtube.com/user/worldofgpower and 9ff in Dortmund. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUp7X1hvAOSLV7WdkTt-ilQ

  8. 1.4 billion Chinese - so you can imagine how interesting this market is.

  9. There was 10:10 one of the most rare cars in the world, a Mercedes 540 Kompressor (up to $10 million at auctions) and you switch to a really mass produced pony car........

  10. Most likely i have been at this time, by date in Bratislava to inspect my new assembly line, to keep the logo made in EU on my products. Romania would be cheaper by labour force, but i would not trust them to even change a tire on a VW beetle correctly.

  11. BTW Porsche offer a Race support team - which means Porsche offers you a GT3RS or GT3RSR for a race team. You get the GT3 and effectively a own technician or more for races with a flat rate. This is a real flat rate and Porsche usually does not spare to keep you in the race, as they also have a good offer of sponsors. The official Porsche race team members are also the first who receive a GT3RS by factory prices. The price is actually ca. €12k per month for a GT3 race team, inclusive all wear parts, except tires.

  12. That yellow trim on the GT8 looks like kids department - The yellow mirrors look like ears on a teddy. Replace it with carbon or satin black.... I would recolour the whole car in a mat dark titanium and leave the carbon parts as they are. The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento would be there a good reference.

  13. Doesn't matter, Paris Hilton would have chosen them in pink, but still can not drive.

  14. Btw if you knew someone who want's to sell actually a Benetti yacht - i actually look out for one around 60 meter (price range 6-8 M $) in a classic design. A fully restored 1966 Jaguar original E-type in very good condition would be the reward.

  15. Just a few minutes with a F1 box team...

  16. I guess the car uses ANC (Active Noise Control) to be so quiet. BMW uses since years a form of ANC for Diesel engine cars. With a large sound system and a fast DSP, ANC could also kill other unwanted noises in the cabin. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

  17. My Porsche dealer told me today that i could get my GT3 with PDK at the 11th August and i will leave my 991.2 Turbo in exchange there.The 991.2 Turbo is phenomenal, but to fast. After driving the car for nearly two years, you get even used to the abnormal acceleration. The GT3 is not that quick, but much more fun on country roads as you can rev the gears and dose the power more precisely at fast cornering.
    1
  18. The will be no "regular" 991 GT2. The GT2 RS is the more race focused version of a 911 Turbo, but with RWD or a GT3 with Turbos.

  19. No, Bi is just the Latin phrase for two (Twin). They are exactly the same, what you mean is a sequential Bi/Twin Turbo.
    1
  20. They are completely the same, only the word is different. In the English language they are often called Twin and in other languages the Latin term Bi Turbos is popular. A car and a automobile are also the same, but the latin term automobile is more precise as it means "self-powered vehicle " and car originates from motor carriage.

  21. +Gitonga Mwaniki ? What did you need more?

  22. +Marcus Cambrand Yes it is, the firdge is optional and cost 4.200 extra on a regular Mayabch.

  24. I also spot there a bit Bugatti design - looks like the job of a Chinese copy cat.

  25. Compact/Coupé Sport
    1
  26. Nonsense - CS is a code like GT (Gran Turismo) or GTS (Gran Turismo Sport) the BMW 850 was I, CS or CSI - I is here for injection. Try to learn some Automotive basics/history. The C always means Coupé (two seater).
    1
  27. In a Carrera or GTS a manual would make sense, but the Turbo and GT3 are a PDK cars.

  28. A Veyron is a massive V16 + Turbo car. With enough torque to blow away anythings with even a jet engine. Every backyard tuning Company could produce a car which could blow away a Mega Car, but they do this 3 times ans than their car´s engine is jam like a alcohol dragster. A native V16 Veyron will run and run as the modded engine is still blow off.

  29. Gumball was registered as a legal event on public roads in Germany. One of the event rules was to obey the route during the event. If you break this rules, there will be a fine.

  30. 11:45 19,6l/100km on 37,1 km with a average speed of 36 km/h - that car is really thirsty

  31. Thats a common issue with Ferrari, therefore they still offer a hardware solution. As registered owner you may have received the newsletter about this issue. http://newsletter.ferrari.com/english/services/aftersales/ferrari-genuine/ff/Pages/FerrariFF-batterymaintainer.aspx BTW i highly recommend to use a Lithium-ion battery as they also save a lot of weight.

  32. The 911 Turbo S has a problem - the car is to fast. You can't use that power outside of Germany. In many other European countries they can confiscate the car if you are to fast. For road trips you need a GT (Grand Tourisme) car which is designed for this purpose. GT´s usually have a V8 with power at low revs, which is not the terrain of a high spinning 911 flat 6.

  33. I have nearly the same shirt witch are called Vichy Karo and have been popular in France during the German Occupation and Vichy Rgégime . So it is not verry pollite to wear this kind of shirts in France.

  34. +Agniv Borah The opponent to the Brabus 900 is the Brabus 850 wich is based on the S65.

  35. +Billige Zeichnungen No the armored version is direcly from Mercedes and called Guard.

  36. I would miss the star on the bonnet if there was none. Even a decent E-Class need a star on the bonnet. Only in the UK you can´t get the C and E Class with the star. Maybe for marketing reasons the Merc Star is there reserved for upper class sedans.

  37. Be lucky that there are not some swarovskies glued on the car as reflectors.....

  38. Is there a button to calm down the exhaust like in the E63, other ways you could get trouble with your neighbors.

  39. LM2 winner 2019 -> Porsche with the new Porsche 960 and a mid flat 8 engine, actually at ca. 600 bhp, non aspirated on test stages. The 960 will fill the gap between the 911 and 918 with prices around 250-270k.

  40. I want this, i want that, but my piggy bank is still empty - dudes get serious or at least grown up.

  41. You get a Porsche 918 Weissach Edition for that money. The Porsche 918 rounds the Nürburgring in 6:57 minutes - what´s the lap time for this car? I guess only show room - no track or even a lap time.

  42. +Ato Nympha If you are new rich, you buy a Rolex, but if you are mega rich, you join the class of teh mega rich, were a Rolex is a status symbohl for the welthy, but not the mega rich. This watch cost over $2.5 Million, but they are booked out, because is is a Tourbillion with comlication wich needs 1 years to be build out of 24k and plenty good stones. watch?v=ZoDxIGZgWek

  43. Ato Nympha But you see, that buyer of such cars are not interested in smoldering tires, they just wan´t to enjoy privately performance at a maximum for their pleasure. If someone want´s to start a race with them at the traffic light, they knew they will win the race and just the knewing of this superiority, that gives them the feel good factor.

  44. +Ato Nympha Steve Jobs had a AMG SL65 and he would be proberly a buyer of a S900 and Bill gates also drives a Maybach 600 (his wife Linda a SL65) and may be he would be also a Maybach 900 customer. BTW if you want to buy a S600 Guard, Mercedes is asking for a certificate of a sober Criminal record,

  45. Ato Nympha I have nothing against BMW as their M - machines are exceptionally driving machins. I own a BMW 750i and a 850 CI. But actually Mercedes has his nose clear in the the front with its marvelous now biturbo V8 engine. As a owner of a class A race license, i would as a Merc owner and driver prefer the non aspirated V8 over the Merc V8 for sheer driving pleasure. The Merc V8 bitubo is faster, but the BMW V8 gives you a more driect feel to the ground. Tghe BMW is a bit slower, but if you do not run against a oponent, you have more pleasure on hard tracks with the BMW in civile use, the AMG angine has mutch more torque to push you in the seats. So it is a really difficult decision- faster corner or higher speed on teh striagh at the end. But we speak here about aboslut supercars and the difference in comparison to other cars is not-marginal.

  46. Ato Nympha They enjoy just a sporty ride on a sunday afternoon. On my  way to the office i also have a remote street route were only the postman car crosses the way. On this route i knew every stone ond corner ans try to optimize my private "Laptime" each morning. So i arrive fully awake at the offive.

  47. Ato Nympha No thre is a combined paved stroll/bike way on the side. But by a old mad law, biker are allowed use the regular street, even if there is a biker paved way.Breaking from 200 to 30 km/h is thre often not so funny. But this bikers are also Hasardeurs by biking on the road. i knew that they couls appear on my track to the office, so i always calculate with them, that makes the track even more difficult but also more interesting t drive. Like a Schikane....

  48. Ato Nympha Until today only a guy with a Scooter has made a trip on my 2. most driven road. I guess you can imagine, that you can get a lot of fun if you take the most of the hard curves in the 2-3 gear and accelerate through them.. /watch?v=UhyYHk9F4mI BTW this route is a hell fun to drive trough witch a Sportscar. I mostly drive this 17 km track in the 2-.3 gear.

  49. Ato Nympha I am from Germany / actually 2/3 in Berlin and 1/3 Münster in Westphalia.

  50. Ato Nympha The Porsche museum is in the same town, also don´t miss it. watch?v=7IhE8JoQVuU Btw. if you visit the museum, you will also dicover, that Mercedes made in 1938 a speed record with  270.4 mph. And later with over 428 km/h, but died by accident on the 2nd run as a heavy wind bow caught his car.
