A 991 GT3 would look good next to the M6

The California BY FAR sounds the best-modified or OEM.

Ironic that I just got my first vert too- a tuned M157 twin turbo benz that weighs ONLY LOL 4k lbs. This car has about 600 hp at the wheels and 680 tq- I love the M157 tunes.

Holy moly that looks good, what kind of Klassens are those?

ColdList, Cali looks amazing, classic color combo. Such a handsome car! I heard one with a Tubi setup and my ears were ringing, definitely a prancing horse under there. I am also looking at the 991 Turbos, can't find any dealer that will take me up on a test drive though.

Haha...yeah many of the TUrbo and Turbo S hitting the streets are ordered cars.

The California has all the right options:

Ceramic brakes in red
Dayton seats w/power and deviated stitching
Electrochromatic interior and exterior mirrors w/homelink
Scuderia Badges
and of course Rosso Corsa on Tan

Sure is fun for a little while at least!

i don't know if u mean out of 3 cars in your stable, or in general, but in general it is the worse sounding and quietest ferrari, no offence

just my opinion!

These are actually quite common. I didn't care for them much at first. In fact. when I pulled it in the garage my 8 yr old son Gavin says "Daddy, we need to get wheels"-lol! They have since sort of grown on me.

your son knows the business

honestly, never seen these once before! and there are a lot of cali's around

avlnch · 12-08-2013, 05:29 PM

The 458 or a 599 is a F Car I would keep. But the Cali is nice to have short term.. it's a fun car.

Tubi makes OEM exhausts for Ferrari.
Eisenmann makes OEM exhausts for MBZ.

That's why they sound so good from the factory. The M division should source their exhausts from Akra - and sell them all that way. Maybe we'll see that for the G## M5. Would be nice, wouldn't it?

Young padawan is being taught well

Many years ago my cousin's son thought it would be a good idea to clean their S-Class with a scouring pad

Pazzo009 · 12-08-2013, 05:50 PM

Congrats Cold...Seriously well done. Since you asked for opinion, I'll share. The 991 and M6 are my favorite. I am a avid Ferrari fan, but I'm not a big fan of the California, nor am I of Red Ferraris of any kind. Get rid of the Cali and 991 and get the new Turbo S or GT3. Or Get the GT3, and get a 430 Scud

All the above IMHO of course and others might see it differently

Agreed! 911, M6, California...

Now if it was a 599...different story.

GOLFFRR · 12-08-2013, 07:48 PM

Coldlist ......you're the same dude that hated the 991 and gave me and Vic crap. Now it's your baby! By the way my girl said bring that Ferrari over she's wants to drive it, and you can take her Xmas shopping and bring her back home(: She will be back from AMS in two weeks so book it dano.

Spinny02 · 12-08-2013, 08:00 PM

looks good ! Nice car. Still waiting for the ECU to warm up to the DP's hope they're as good as you say =).

This is why I'd pick the GT3 over the Turbo, but that's just me.

Totally agree with you on your choices among those 3 cars. Like u, I very much prefer the GT3 to the turbo. The 991 GT3 is the only mass production Porsche I have ever loved!

BC87 · 12-09-2013, 01:59 AM

Jay-K · 12-09-2013, 08:18 AM

very nice stable there,,, i'd say please keep the porsche. yours looks brilliant.

JOHNBMWM5 · 12-09-2013, 08:42 AM

Great Stable Mike, keep the M6, sell the others and buy GT3 or Turbo.
