And for the record I have also driven an F40 several times, my friend Dr Peter Scalia owned one of the highest mileage F40's (18k+ miles) purchase from Kessler and driven almost daily, Wide World of Cars serviced the car. It had Euro cams installed and gutted cats it was blindingly fast and amazing for its day I saw close to 200mph on the Palisades Interstate heading toward Nyack one evening, but the brakes by todays standards are antique there is no arguing this point.

 

LOL.... MILF hunter you....

 

And the battle of old vs new rages on.

 

i call bullshit.




































make it 80+ i'll believe ya.

 

LOL I actually counted last week as a joke as my friends were giving me a hard time...its 40 on the dot..started driving in 1985 and its 2011 so it will be 26 years in July 2011 I have been driving...

 

I drive an '83 911SC every day to and from work 25 miles each way in L.A. and find it very fun, but I actually enjoy driving and my commute doesn't include too much traffic.

I re-read Jamie's thread and couldn't find anywhere where he says the brakes or steering suck. Lack of power steering or vacuum-assisted brakes have nothing to do with the braking performance of the car.

I drive a good amount of newer high-end cars for work and they're good if you don't care for driving and need to just get from A to B. But even the newer sports cars are kind of boring at normal speeds, and besides the sound, they all drive very similar when compared to the classics.

 

it's ok for other 40 cars that u're too embarrassed to admit.

 

Shesh. No wonder you crave modern comfort, grampa.

 

CongratZ on an amazing P-car!!!!!!!

 

Im 43 what can I say.
