I heard an F50 last week by the dealership (MA plate FORZA1 !!) that had Tubi straight pipes!!! It was sooooooo sweeeeet.
I hope that the next generation 911 is V8 based so that Porsche can improve its tune. The current 996s sound like sh..

It's unique and the sound is just awesome. A guy at work just put GHL's on his 996 and man the car just sounds great!
Porsche sound is very unique, but very attractive.

The Cayenne Turbo V8 sounds like my '97 Corvette with an aftermarket Corsa exhaust - not sure if I want to swap the smooth sophisticated flat six sound for an American hot rod sound track in a 911 . I was surprised by the Cayenne motor's sound - I thought they could tune it to sound more " Porsche" like they did with the Carrera GT's V10. They had better for the 998's V8 .

Sergei Federov (Detroit Red Wing) just picked up a yellow Enzo.
Correction. It was delivered to the dealer several weeks ago and he has yet to take it anywhere.
It seems he is too busy driving around his G500 with 23" chrome wheels (I see him all the time).
He does have a 996tt for sale.
White, with white wheels
Interior is red. I don't mean that 'Boxster' red one thinks of when I say "interior is red"
I mean bright ***, candy apple, fire truck, orangey, mind numbing red leather on every possible surface (vents, etc.)
The red craziness is offset by bright white stitching everywhere.
It has 2500 miles on it and has been sitting for over a year at a local showroom.
He turned down $119,000 and offered a signed jersey as incentive for a higher price.
Unfortunate he can't drive worth a damn, cuz he has some capable cars that he takes to the track on occasion.

Cajun, George and Badass:
Are you talking about the owner of the following cars. I was told that the F50 was sold in order to clear way for the Phil Hill LeMans winning Ferrari that was bought for somewhere in the neighborhood of $6,000,000. Here's a pic of some of his cars. Was also told that when this guy wants to go to a F1 race he sits in Schumacker's seats. Must be nice!
George, sidenote there's a white 996TT that's pretty modified coming from Baton Rouge. Any tangles with it yet?
