Thanks. I'll stick with my order. I don't like center cap wheels nor the Spyder wheels.
Stupid question: Have you ever test-drove a Huracan or the new R8? Both maybe even in Spider flavor?
If you got rid of your GT3, you will never ever be happy with a Targa. Maybe for a couple of months but then... Just saying.
My wife fell in love with that Huracan in Miami...what a beautiful car and not too flashy in the right color.
It is you RC who want a Huracan or R8. Don't project your own desires onto Nick. That is not going to make him happy.
The Targa fits Nick perfectly. He got rid of the GT3 because he could not use it to its full. Getting an even more powerful Huracan or R8 makes no sense.
I just had the feeling that Nick isn't too happy with Porsche. Don't forget that he had a Ferrari before...
I do not see the point to switch from a GT3 to a 991.2 Targa:
1. Same interior/exterior...basically
2. He looses sound, thus emotions
3. He looses drive feel and driving excitement
He basically would switch from a 991 GTS to a 991 Turbo S, minus the performance gain.
I do not see the point but if you are implying that Nick got old and rather enjoys a more quiet and comfortable ride, well...you maybe be onto something. Not so sure however if Nick agrees (if he does, I'm OK with it).
Btw: What I want and I what I can afford are two pair of shoes. Unfortunately. Within my budget, I would like to have a Huracan (or a used R8 V10 Plus, not the new one) but in reality, I would rather get a F12 or Aventador. Money no issue? 918 and probably a 675LT as well.
