yeah,I really hope they follow the example of Ruf and put a racing V8 in the back of a 911.
Maybe they even could manage to put the engine on or in front of the rear axle - somehow

Making a few changes to my list. 2,4, and 5 stay the same.

1) AM V12 Vantage

3) 599XX in a color I cannot decide on. Number 3 livery.

In my fictional E-world

Since I only have a 5 car garage and some cars proved to be other than expected I had to go on and flip some of them


The 16M got a Novitec engine upgrade and will be my Sunday morning car,since it was to rough for a DD

So I needed a new DD and since Munich is full of road construction areas and I don`t want to have to take detours daily it had to be a car that can take some bumps without braking your spine or scratching the front bumper.
I was debating between the Bentley Continental GT Supersports and the R8 Spyder,since I needed some luxury in my DD as well.
In the end I went for the R8 V10 Spyder because the Supersports made me feel old and settled....which I am totally not!And that V10 in the back just sounds right...not too loud,yet very present.

The Enzo had to go,as I just could not see it sitting in the garage because I`d rather take another car that is less precious to abuse on those bumby backroads
Enzo out - 599 GTO in Lucky me

The two Porsches are doing their job quite well....but I`m currently looking for a nice engine upgrade on the Panny..any suggestions?
