The Michelins are rubbish tyres which peal around the edge after hard use. Stick with the Pirelli's
Thrashed the car on the wet this weekend (just a bit ) and the Pirellis behaved better than I thought. Michelin are still the best allrounder for though.
Chassis is sublime, inspires a lot (too much?) of confidence.
Brakes are just mental, although, compared to the GT2 mk1 I testdrove, the pedal is much less sensitive, it's not as spongeous as the 996 Turbo brake pedal which you had to press quite hard before anything happened but they've definitely made it a bit user friendly and less racy feeling.
One of my favorite options if the short shifter, it's so crisp and precise, a joy to use!
Still not pushing redline, 1500 km on the clock, but past 5000 rpm, I could swear a second engine switched on somewhere in there! Amazing!
Thanks for the kind words guys.
Three track days booked for early next year, I'll try and squeeze one in December but it's low season.
