It's a regurgitation of the same review over the last 10 years. With the same car (literally) too.

Well, it's the same car. There's nothing new to say about it. Point is it speaks volumes that it's still revered and worth a revisit 10 years later.

Loved the in motion videography. Such a pretty car to look at as it dances around the track! ×

Right on! But, I'm sorry, but why stop driving it during the lockdown? Unless you pack it with strangers (which you're not going to do) I see no better way to "social-distance" yourself from others while biding the time doing an enjoyable activity, right? Please don't confuse doing the common sense right thing (social distancing, washing your hands, staying home if you are sick etc...) with being a "good citizen" and cowering in the basement, surrounded by cans of tuna and toilet paper.

P.s. Whoops, did I cross the line here?

Ha - not going to win any "good citizen" awards driving at blur speeds.

Its snowing today so no RS . . . our group observed all social distancing rules except perhaps when drafting a foot off another's bumper.

Pull the trigger Zeus - virus cant catch an RS !
