For my bank account perspective ... I am hoping they all get withdrawn from the market 🤪

Autocar have just released a video review

He talks about the chassis stiffness which reminded of what a PEC instructor said to me a couple of weeks ago. The instructors there reckon it’s stiffer than the GT3 coupe...to the extent that one of the instructors managed to spin the one they have in the wet at pretty slow speeds. Chassis that stiff equals serious lack of grip on the wrong kind of corner in the wet apparently.
But how annoying is it watching the same clips of the same bends over and over?

Quite. But at least he didn’t spend the whole review saying it doesn’t sound as good!

I know what you mean about silver. Seems a real waste on a GT car. I opted for Lava. I know of a Miami uk car but I believe the rest are silver, black or red. I’ve been informed that there are 61 c16 cars.

Lava....clearly a man with great taste ! But I would say that.

Romans listed a Speedster two days ago which looks decidedly like the JZM car....too much of a coincidence ? Can’t remember anything about the details of the JZM car....and they’ve deleted from their social media feed too.

Very nice indeed..The new Speedster deserves a bright colour to show off its lines..However if i was getting one it would be in boring GTS as i'm currently suffering from 'post midlife crisis syndrome' which only allows me to drive cars in boring monotone colours preferably Greys..

It was LHD, and the price was 299k Plus Vat, just over 1k miles, For a Heritage pack car. If you did not take the 10k Watch a heritage pack car with the right bits comes in at around mid 230ks. For low miles car in this spec the trade bids were 100k over last week.

I appear to have confused myself....apparently it is possible to spend too much time looking at “used” car adverts !

LHD 911 R for £235k anyone ? https://www.internationalcollectables.com/Cars/For...

In short no. It arrived early November. Ski season started late November, so it's under a cover in the garage as I'm in the alps for 6 weeks. Got some good road trips planned next year though.

There are at least 2 PTS cars coming to the UK at some point next year. Be really interesting to see what we end up with here in the UK and how many RHD there'll be in total.

Must be early next year ? Last 991 came off the line last week. Although is the owners went nuts with CXX that can take a loooong time.

Yeah... CXX is backed up at the mo. I think there are lots of cars waiting to be worked on.

I live 2 minutes from them and haven't noticed it in the showroom....yet.
When I posted this ,it actually was in the showroom all the time.

It's still listed for sale but it's space inside has been taken by a Mercedes Maybach at a mere 125000 GBP
