Does look amazing, nicely compliant setup and I didn’t realise those ‘Fuchs’ were carbon!

You could see CH muscle memory kicking in and making him go for the shift way too early then getting back on it for the next 3k!

It is a crazy car!
I like (as Francis comments early on) the fact somebody could just walk past it and say 'that's a nice early 911'
So I've heard some figures banded around but how much to order one?
