A thumbs up from me if they were black.

White wheels should only ever be on rally cars IMO. cool

IMO that's just plain nuts driving like that on a public highway, get yourself to a track and thrash the arse out of it smile

What's nuts about it ? Always in control and never needing to cross the centerline to stay in control.. Just a cruise not pushing it at all.

You obviously like driving fast, the turbo is a super fast car, if you took it to a track you could use all its performance and get it out of your system.
Then you would not feel so inclined to drive as fast on the road which no matter how you look at it, is never going to be as safe.

I can't watch due to the hand shuffling on the wheel - It just looks wrong.

Just dry English humour.

Although yes, we do tend to have a lot of crap at the roadside, as well as crap (and spilled diesel, potholes.... etc. etc.) to contend with. But your scenery is hardly going to give a soft departure from the tarmac.

Mesmerising! The Turbo fairly jumps out of those corners. Thanks for posting.

Looks awesome! - Have you ever thought of getting a set of black wheels for it though? would look much nicer and more aggressive with black wheels! The white wheels make it look a bit of a hairdressers car!

Awesome car - amazing roads - lucky to have them on the doorstep!!!

But why drive it in full auto? would it be more fun doing something to change gear even if it's only moving fingers?

Ps wouldn't want to be a cyclist when the turbo S is in the canyon - especially given those bends and the no crossing the line stance - eeeek

I've played with shifting and every time I was about to pull the paddle it shifted at the exact same time, the robot is fkin good.
I will give way for a cyclist until it is safe to pass over the line and then tuck back over...

Here it is with black wheels, ya just can't see the wheel design when they are black..Posers have black wheels..
