Nice pictures, looks like a fun trip as long as you can run around all the peak traffic in and near all European city's...

I say drive on race tracks during the day and drive to them at night ;-)

Haha..I think all of us noticed that check engine light. Maybe the gas cap wasn't on?

I think that 2 pictures (the 5th and 6th of the 2nd post) are based on a movie where they drive around in Paris, but I don't remember the title of that movie. It's an old movie too.

Ask and you shall receive my friend.

I spoke with the journo about this and he says that the CEL light was on and off over the second half of the drive because car had a minor temp sendor fault (also reason for low temp) - car was checked at Porsche dealer and they were told it was fine to keep driving. Image in article not Photoshopped - I just posted the wrong one. Biggest indicated speed he hit was 324km/h as RS hit rev-limiter in sixth gear.
