V6? That's surprising. But N/A with enough TB's has always had the best throttle response.

I know what Mr Wink is saying, I wouldn't have gone for the 4 pot. I've had mostly 4's and the odd 6 all my life. It was time for 8 flying in a V formation.

Not that Sam, the Sam in Carwow. The one they call Sam the Racing driver. He's actually pretty good driver, but not so much with menus.

Possibly, but it'll be minimal. Definitely a lot more dino juice, tyres will wear faster, brakes too if you use them much. Speed costs, how fast can you afford? :sunglasses:

What model Audi? My Cupra had the VAG EA888 4 cyl turbo and there was nothing like that unless the revs were around 1000/1200. Even then it was minor.

As far as the Brembos go, mine had a slight mushy feel at first, but after 2000kms or so that went away. They now have instant bite, great modulation. It could be that the rotors need bedding in as well as the pads

Given the right unrestricted road you could sit on 6k or 7k rpm for as long as the various temps allow.

Jeez, that's wasting 5000 rpm.

A DCT would transform an S650. That and AWD can make a 300hp car as quick to 60 as the Mustang, or very damn close at least. I wouldn't buy an AWD Mustang though.

Sam on Carwow didn't scroll far enough to find drag mode.

Lots of radiators, headers and other heat sources. Plus alloy is used much more, thermal efficiency is high, power creates heat, etc, etc.

Americans generally find this strange, but our cops, and Traffic cops when they were thing, need no reason to stop you when driving. We did vehicle safety checks on the roadside, pulling over dozens of drivers for warrant of fitness, licence, registration, etc, etc. There was a difference...

Not me. In my new life, I live and let live.

You know what's stupid? If someone said to me, when I sweated to buy my first house in 1974 for $25,000, that I'll be a millionaire in 2022. I would have said they're nuts. Guess what? I was, simply by owning one house outright in one of the most unaffordable places in the world. Staying on the...

You mean Leon Levavasseur's design, the V8 from the Antoinette Co. of France in 1904?😎

Yes, but yours was so completely nuts it was funny

Yeah, that's right. But the point has been made to him. Would he be kicked off if he continues? Would he continue here if he gets no clicks?

A man who knows Cst's. Super important in selecting fork oil. Good to hear, where did you find engine oil ratings?

I was told in Dec 2024 I could order a DH here, delivery July '25. But we do get ours direct from the US. Have I mentioned that we get the full fat 362KW US spec GT 5.0? 🤣

Another thought, it's possible to have internal tyre faults like belt separation that does not show as out of balance or not running true. It's rare, but has happened. Try and get the dealer to try another set of wheels of a car that runs smooth.
