Absolutely stunning, congrats.

For me personally I much prefer the looks of the PISTA over the 458 Speciale, it is just so much more aggressive.

That's a magnificent car, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who's wondering what you do for a living to be able to afford hundreds of thousands of pounds' worth of cars? I just want to know where I went wrong in life!

I totally accept that I'm being a nosey git, and I won't be at all offended if you'd rather not say.

He buys cars for £400k that are immediately worth £600k!

Ignore my car list, it's 2 years out of date! Much more exciting content now!:-)
I work very hard in the music industry (behind the scenes) and it's served my passion for fast cars very well.

Congrats on the car, looks awesome. Love the colour combination, it looks extremely aggressive. Make sure you let us know how it drives. I find my std 488 too fast for normal roads, so your car is going to be ridiculous smile

Coincidentaly I also worked very hard in the music industry behind the scenes. I still do music industry related work but have branched out into other avenues too.

Yeah it properly tried to kill us as you'd expect on damp roads with fresh rubber but was fun nevertheless. Much more engaging and when you get to a certain magic number you can really feel the downforce. Feels much less twitchy than the GTB. Noise was great, not quite Speciale of course but for a twin turbo, a lovely sound. It's parked up now as I'm away for couple months but the 250 miles I did that afternoon allowed me to know that it's a keeper alongside it's older brother. Roll on a warm, dry Silverstone GP RMA trackday.....
