I just wanted to thank all of you on here since it's been a fantastic year at SharkWerks and so I figured I'd treat myself to a more comfortable daily driver. Kermit is great and all but I'm getting older, my bones ache more and the roads aren't helping the stiff suspension. I miss England so please welcome my new daily D:







It's got suicide doors and a button to open and close them. It's also got a couch for seats:


Extra fluffy sheep-skin carpets perfect for the track and no sport chrono:


I am so over carbon fiber interiors and hence I spec'd out a couple of trees as well for the interior:


For wheels I decided to go with 21s. 22s would ride too firm plus I wanted less rotational mass and better braking performance. It already weighs 5400 pounds so I don't want to get too heavy.


Best of all this Phantom Drophead Coupe is actually a convertible:


Anyone know of a bolt-in roll bar? I will be tracking occasionally... So maybe I'll check with Tony@TCD.


Anyways keep those orders coming my friends it takes a few dimes to fill her 17.6 gas tank up. Very fuel efficient with 11mpg city & 18hwy

I blame all that coverage on the 'Royal Wedding'.

I think you need a good nights sleep Alex, you seem to be sleep deprived and hallucinating

Alex, congrats on the pick up of a stunning automobile! I especially like the ?teak? deck on the convertible deck.

Glad to have been a contributor to your good fortune. Have to say, I love the product.

No wonder that exhaust bypass is so expensive

LAF! That's just for gas!
Haha...

When the Roller outruns a 3.9:P

LOL... I don't know I've seen some big coupes in my time but this boat takes the biscuit. I'd almost be tempted to make this a floater.
Haha no kidding;P

I didn't even get an invite

I'm gonne wrap my hood in stainless steel wrap. Good for 0.5secs a lap surely..

And the teak would help with buoyancy should you have an "off"...

Some would complain that you charge too much for your service then
But I'd say that you got the reward of your hard work with a shop that is now very well known across the country.

Congrat on the new car!

Alex, did you see that "SPOTTED-DICK" comment I made in this same thread over yonder at 6speed offline?

I predict a short acquaintance with that car. I like comfort to go with my RS too. I have an SL65. I cannot wait till you brake for the second corner on the track and find out the brakes are gone. They also cost about the same as a Ferrari to maintain.
