Grin factor= priceless

Driving experience=only good at high speeds on good roads ( so almost never)
Carbon footprint (whatever that is)=Very good as more carbon is better

Grin on the sales mans face= priceless

If it's like most Jap high performance cars, the suspension will be so hard it will be agonisingly painful to sit in and be skittish and unsettled on our ****ed up road surfaces.

Latest version is a lot better car than previous incarnates. Much more road friendly.

Point is though, there's nowhere in the UK where you could drive it legally on the road to even get near its potential. You'd have to use it as a track car or move to Germany.

When you get it , milan, I can store it for you and keep it ready for you when you drop by, I promise I will drive it every day to ensure it is in good running condition. Please budget a bit for petrol.

It is a great car. A friend had one on order before official release. He is really pleased with it and it is just stunning. Costs a fortune to run and he has had to get secure parking for it but that is expected.

I have a high performance Jap car. Must say yep the suspension is very stiff but to counteract it the seats are like soft bouncy castles. Only thing is it makes you need to empty your bladder at least every hour on a long journey in the UK.

Why? It's only a £50K motor. It's no more than an RS4 and half the price of a Porsche 911.

Still a nickable car and like me he lives in East London. Pretty sure he paid £64k with all the extras.

I am on one of the Jap car forums and it is quite distressing how many Jap motors are stolen across the UK. One of the lads on there had his taken and was used to pull a cash machine out of a wall.

Solution is to live in West London

Actually if I had an expensive and desirable car I'd be worried about thieves breaking into my house to steal the keys.
