I know of a very nice red 06 Tam that may be for sale if interested.

Got back from Drive Espania on Sunday. 2000-miles(ish) in 10-days in Spain. Did most of the road overtaking in 5th so there is some oomph there. There's just a step change in the performance when the revs rise to 4-5k.
Trackday there showed this perfectly. 2/3rd gear hairpin the RV8s (all 500s) would just stick with 3rd and pull out of the corner so much better (same against the 4.5 S6 that was there too). If I could squeeze in a change to 2nd then I was all over them on the exit.
I describe the 3.6 as dog constantly pulling on a lead to get somewhere.
Yeah but I could out brake you and go through the twisty bits just as quick as you and blast out of the corners and fly past you down the straights but I was being kind till I went for it Trackday there showed this perfectly. 2/3rd gear hairpin the RV8s (all 500s) would just stick with 3rd and pull out of the corner so much better (same against the 4.5 S6 that was there too).
