My wife has an Abarth 595 and she let's me drive it. Brilliant little car although the suspension is very firm.

The noise is awesome, I think it has no muffler whatsoever...straight pipes.

Yes, for a straight 4 cylinder turbo it always sounds good.

Yep same here it’s my other half’s car and agree they are firm but great fun to drive.

I noticed a guy purchased this Exige from Lotus Silverstone to fill in the gap while waiting for his Emira to arrive.

I'm not familiar with the Komo-tech DSG, but does it have something to do with that fancy Nest thermostat?

Currently have an M3 and a Civic hatchback for a daily (though I am WFH since the pandemic, so I don't really have to commute haha!). Probably will let go of the M3 once the Emira comes to the states!

My beloved Alpina B3 BiTurbo Touring with 410hp and a top speed of 304 km/h, but still with comfortable room for 5 people and their full luggage. This is a keeper, and it will stay «In the stable» alongside my new Dark Verdant with Tan interior Emira I4 FE.

I gave up the 992 S Manual 2 weeks ago... Thinking I would get an Emira in May/June... I made a mistake didn't I?

If you want to look and feel young...you did the right thing. But I see the 992 as a complement, not a replacement.

yes, but DONT Worry, it wont be your last.... haha...

I always think the best angle of the 992 is rear / rear quarter..... so next time!

The 992 is a great machine. But a bit too docile. If it was a daily I would be keeping it, but this is a weekend fun car and just wanted something a little more rare, raw and fun. Plus the manual in the 992 is not a great shift, the 718 Spyder however, that has a nice shift feel. 992 is best with PDK and Daily driven IMO.

For your enjoyment! The Spyder had a nicer ass tho. You might be right, when I get to your age I'll probably swing back to a 911!

What a beaut! I’ve always been a fan of a fast estate. I have a deposit on an M3 Touring to replace the current family car, a Golf R estate.
