My #1 is Supercharger tunability. Easy 650-700HP without changing the transmission or intake or exhaust. Amazing.

Another FABULOUS gift is the glorious amplified sound with the top-down. The top is very strong and well insulated when up, and it only takes 4 secs, at up to 30 mph, to tuck behind the windshield on the way down. Though it takes 8 secs to lock. Best convertible soft top design, ever. Its also the least turbulent convertible money can buy. Normal conversation at 100+mph.

My #3 is the ZF8 dual controls, paddles or shift lever, to shift manually. The proximity of the stereo volume knob with the shift lever is genius.

It's an impressively quick shift speed for an auto, single-clutch box. The ZF is a marvel of engineering genius!

The luxurious seats are a fan favorite, too. Gorgeous thick leather and perfect stitching, plus outstanding adjustability and support, but somehow, also so comfy they put you to sleep.

Definitely would have had the boot size and comfort in the top 5!!! It's a fantastic GT car, we went on a 3 week long European road trip with the wife in our V8R, 10 countries and 4200 miles 😁👍 We had from beach gear to hiking gear, tripod 2 big camera bags etc. Try that in any other 2 seater sports car with this much power 🤩 No McLaren, Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche can do that that I can think of 👍

Thanks for watching and commenting. I definitely agree! It’s impressive what you can get in there (unless it’s a convertible, of course!) The road trip sounds epic! What countries did you go to?

That’s hilarious I just bought a 2015 R that was barely driven and took it in for inspection.. posted a bunch of notes pleading them not to update the software! These earlier models just have so much personality. Thanks for the video

The bad thing about the door handles is they’ll lock with your keys inside. Car washes can be dangerous.

A great question. It was because of the amount of fuel going through the cats. It degrades them. I've released a recent video on this, which may explain it in more detail.

#2 is the oil extractor pump nipple under the oil fill cap. A $75 extractor pump reduces an oil change to 2 mins, from above. The filter is on top of the engine so it can be changed within the 2 mins it takes the oil to drain, or changed out of phase with the oil. Why don’t all cars have this set-up?
