Been a bit quiet in here recently - CGT
Discussion
Took mine out this morning, first time since early November. I have reconnected with this amazing machine. Much, rightly, is made of the noise, that life affirming V10 howling with no inertia up the rev range. But, if it could howl too, the chassis and steering would make just as much an impression. The feel through the thin leather steering wheel as the car responds to your every single little command, immediately and with absolute precision, is totally unique and imo unmatched in a road car. The new Michelin pilot SS's have moved the game on and you can lean on the sublime chassis with so much confidence. The floor hinged ally pedals are perfect and you get addicted to blipping it down the box. I could drive this all day (sadly, other commitments mean I can't today). Roll on more sunny weather!

I thought the 16m was the ultimate ?
Or was it the Gallardo lp560 ?
Or maybe the TVR Chimera KWIM ?

Definitely agreed on the above, nothing other than the cgt i think has that feeling of precision that i have driven. Interesting to note the 07 plate though, i thought all cars were built by mid 2006!isaldiri said:
