for quick wheel/tire changes just like on race cars
LOL. I have learnt that the phrase, "quick wheel/tire change," and the name, "Carrera GT" do not belong in the same sentence.
yep, no such thing. the car has to be put on the lift to change a tire. putting it on the lift is quite involved and way not "quick". if the wrong people put one on the lift, they will most definetely cause very expensive damage (to carbon fiber undertrays and/or chassis) and it's not unlikely they'll TOTAL it if it is raised much owing to it falling off the lift arse first if not properly straped down to the lift.

Hey you got a very very nice GT.. Think I saw you 3 weeks ago. LoL It was the same time I was going to the dealer to book a 997S...
Congragulations on it and be careful that car really bits. And I think you are well aware of what happend to the first one in the country.

1st & 3rd ones unfortunately.
don't leave us hanging in the dark ha
, what happened to the 1st and 3rd CGT's, were they involved in crashes?
Re: As Promised - More Pics of CGT
First CGT in Dubai was officially delivered a little over a year ago. The driver had about 30km on the odometer (+ delivery mileage) when he hit another car and slammed into a wall totaling the CGT. Luckily he and the driver of the other car walk out uninjured.
The 3rd CGT delivered had about 6,000km when it was involved in a very high speed crash while racing a Koenigsegg. Unfortunately the driver was not as lucky and he died instantly. Eyewitnesses say that the CGT was behind the Koenigsegg when the Koenigsegg's top somehow flew off the car. The CGT's driver tried to avoid it but lost control at a very high speed and hit the side wall.
Ironically, the driver of the CGT was also the sole distributor of Koenigsegg cars in the middle east.

Re: As Promised - More Pics of CGT
hi evo_dubai, sorry i didn't mean to offend anyone 
but you know how it goes with supercars, the 1st ones always seem to get trashed because the driver takes it to the limit before getting to know the car trying to show off so i just assumed that's what happened, my apologies, hope everything is ok with your uncle 
btw could we see pics of that diablo!! i love em!!

The CGT in my avatar is not mine nor was I the one sliding in it.
I got this pic somewhere from the net (can't remember from where exactly).
As for quartermile, they have already closed their main showroom and moved all their activities to the workshop/service center. Most of the sales force have left the company as well.
