Something has jumped the shark, I'm just not quite sure what that *thing* is. The bubble economy? All things asset shall be bought, regardless of the price.

I love the 918's, they seem like such stunning cars.

Ha ha ha. You're a funny guy. I wish.

A car that exceptional and focused is wasted on me these days. All I do is go to/from work. If I had track time I'd love to get that car.

The sticker on the 918 reads $996,xxx which I think is also funny.

(996 in case it's not funny yo anyone else. Most craptastic 911 ever, right?)

Herb Chambers.

Was dropping off the 987 for warranty niggles and squeaks before CPO expires.

Look even better in person. Front is Ferrari-ish from head-on. The one I saw had me thinking it was an odd-looking Ferrari, and only when it turned did I realize it was a 918 (due to the hybrid badge on the fender in Porsche's script...)

Saw one of these Gulf livery Ford GT's cruising around this weekend. I forgot this was an actual thing at first.
