Between the 2 generations, I bet we have owned or do own just about every cool car ever built.

So here it is....... if you remember the Wendy's commericals (wheres the beef?)/..... welll WHERE IS THE SOUND? WHERE IS THE PASSIONATE AWE INSPIRING GRUMBLE? WHERE IS THE WHAT THE F*** WAS THAT (after it goes by). In short its a hot car but not for me.


By the way, i think the car is beautiful and i gave all that disclosure knowing that I will get some ridicule but if you remove my title for a minute and listen objectively i bet you will agree!

When you have them head to head, yes, the 12C is a bit bland on the noise department.

Have a 12C on its own and you realise it does actually sound pretty good...

Quite nice to hear that people have enjoyed the words as well as the photos - It's the first time I've done a proper write up and I've always thought that I never had a way with words

Will do more articles in future if there is demand for them. I tend to get a different perspective from most as I hear from the owners of the cars
