Sounds amazing although it is rather strange way of demonstrating the car but then any excuse is a good excuse I suppose!

That is a fantastic video! I'm starting to warm up to the 458, not a major fan right now, but that video made it look pretty damn cool!

Thanks for sharing!

Aye, sounds nice but am I the only person that would take a 360 CS over a 458?

Not alone, mate. It's taking a very long time for me to come round to the 458. It just looks too, Gamey... By that, I mean it looks like it came from a video game (Burnout and the like...) that doesn't use licensed models, so just come up with wacky, stereotypical creations.

Sounds great, only thing is I reckon it would sound better if the gear change took longer!!

That's exactly what I thought!

If you pause the video at 1 minute it really shows how awkward the car is IMHO. It certainly isn't beautiful in the traditional (classic) sense, and it doesn't look good in a purposeful way (ala FXX). It sits inbetween the two, not looking good at all.

No such problems in my car, nor yours either I imagine... I am starting to learn that if you try and change gear like you've just stolen the car, it doesn't give hot hatches following a full second to catch up the gap I've managed to pull by revving the nuts off her!

I like the way he's making a fast getaway from LIDL. Probably all hopped up on a huge bag of Gummi Cows.
