Hey all,

Yesterdag I tested the R8 and today the AM V8 Convertible... Those were awsome days...really

no pics unfortunately, I was too excited so I forgot

If anyone had questions, please do...

Next week, I'm going to test the Carrera 4s convertible

(now driving 535d and M3 Convertible)

 

Are you going to leave us?

 

Noooooo

Also went to presentation E90 M3

The 535d stays, the M3 is going to be replaced...

 

Would love to hear what you thought of the R8 and the Vantage - hope you like the Porsche too!

Take a look at the Porsche Sport Exhaust if you can (it's awesome), and think about the Sport Chrono option (remaps the throttle etc). I didn't get either on mine but probably would next time.

 

Go for the Prosche

My buddy a few years back traded in his M3 for a 911 (996) and he has never looked back. Now he is driving the 997 model and he couldn't be any happier. Porsche really addressed the one problem I had with the 911, which was the poor interior. Now the inside is superb.

 

The interior in the AM is amazing, really... It is also a nice car to cruise, under 4000 rpm the car is very silent...but above 4000 rpm it sounds like a true sportscar!!!

The R8 is more agressive, faster, and really amazing looking with the permanent LED's in the front...

It is going to be one of those or the Porsche should be amazing good...

 

Doesnt Aston have reliability problems. Have heard and read bad things about them, I remember hearing about a lot of gear box issues.

I'd have to admit though, the AM's are beautiful cars.

 

yeah, also heard that...

but they are soooooo beautiful... they manage to look sporty but also have a lot of style

 

Isn't the wait list for the R8 something like 3 years? Unbelievable... it's an awesome car though, one of the Dad's at my son's school has one. Don't know him well enough to ask for a go in it... yet
