By the way, amazing garage. Love all the cars especially the Scud and the CS. Any more pics of the Scuderia alone or with the CS by any chance?
Here are a few more that I've taken:

All I can say is wow!!! I just spent the last couple of hours reading this thread, and it is truly amazing. I have to say that my favorite out of your collection is the 550...I'm sure it is a blast to drive, weather permitting. Congrats on all the success!!!

Scuderia's are fantastic! It's so fast through the gears. Extremely smooth tracking hard around a corner at almost any pace and just a ton of fun to drive. It's easily one of the top 5 cars I've ever driven.

My only criticism is the seat doesn't adjust easy enough for the wife to drive it. She's too short and needs a pad to get her up high enough. Same problem with the CS.

Garage floor is plan old concrete with a in floor heating system. Nothing special at all. A little sealer.


Nice Horhay........For the last time I won't do that type of movie for you. Quit ASKING !

Thanks H20, if thats your only problem, then i consider that as nothing. I drive an S2000 so i have the same problem. Im way too chunky for my car but i still did it and being comfortable is not an issue for me. Even though, i do look like a sardine in a tin can .

And about the handling, have you driven any other car that handles better than the Scuderia? If so, which ones. Im a handling maniac so thats why I ask.

Thanks for answering.

Scuderia is very easy to drive fast. It does what you want and that's all you can ask. My GT3 Cups were better handling but you couldn't take them to the grocery store or on a long weekend. The CGT is a car I still have a lot to learn about and I know is a good car but commands attention every minute you drive it. I believe it will never be as easy to drive fast even as I gain comfort. My RS America is still the most comfortable car on the track for me to drive to it's limit.

My 997 GT3RS would be top dog of EVERY car I have ever driven. It's ability to hammer hard but drive civil around town makes it the best car for me to drive. It has everything someone needs in a sports car and you can drive it around town without all the attention the others gather. You can also hold your own with cars with much more power very easily. Best bang for the buck imho.

gt3 rs

I would have to agree that the gt3 rs is the best bang for the buck. I have not owned a SCUD but I have had a cgt, 964 T, 993 TT, several 997 TT, z8. 355, 360, 430, gt3, three gt3 rs, all kinds of cars and while I love my CGT and plan on keeping it the gt3 rs was for sure the best all around car and bang for the buck. I am curious how the new gt3 compares.
