What an awesome bit of kit.

Props to the owner whoever it is.

Insurance company sent a guy from Essex at 8am this morning to check it was all in one piece.

How fast does it go Mister?

[footsoldier]

I know it does 321kph on the Autobahn, but more than that I'm not sure :-)

[Asterix]

Awesome, would you mind if next time I'm in Scotland you allow me to sniff it?

[footsoldier]

Just drop me a note nearer the time, and will check if I'm around

They were testing, or something, at the Dubai Autodrome and I had a good nosey at them - truly stunning cars. The attention to details is off the scale and definitely my pick of the latest bunch of top end cars.

Out of curiosity, have you had a drive or look at the competition? If so, what are your thoughts?

Try not to get it too dirty lol

[footsoldier]

I'm sure you can polish it up! A few more miles to be done before I see you...

No, haven't tried the others, but should get in a LaF in a couple of weeks. When first announced, I would have said the P1 would be first choice, mainly because of want for F1 when younger.

Now think Porsche's execution of concept, and development since announcement has put it well ahead, for me anyway. I also prefer the (slightly...) more conservative looks.

Looks aside - I'm guessing (as I'll never have the pleasure) that it will be the same but different - each will have their own personalities of going really fking fast, but you could own them all and you'd wake up on Sunday and it would be a 'P1 day'. Wednesday might be a '918 day' depending on your mood, and Friday could be a 'LaF day'.

Hmmmm.

Footsoldier, great credit to you for buying and using this & the Countach etc in Edinburgh City Centre, always makes my day to see the cars (live just off Charlotte Sq so catch them a fair bit)! They're always the most popular by a country mile on my page too: https://www.facebook.com/EdinburghSupercars

Keep up the good work sir, will tell you in person if I ever see you about!

The 918 isn't exactly voodoo I think.... close but no cigar

[rosino]

Looked remarkably similar on the picture and had seen a voodoo 918 but maybe in the States.

Is it the special 918 blue with the crazy magnetic application ?
