Tested my Dream Car! (Carrera GT)
I went for a spin in my Dream Car today (well, one of them), the Porsche Carrera GT. This car is just nuts, it revs so fast! Its smooth and predictable, sounds great and there are engineering treats everywhere you look.

Its a great car, and I was very excited. Although someone did ask if it was a Ferrari Testarossa...

You can hear it - the thing revs up and down so fast it sounds wicked. Sounds more like an F1 engine than a street engine. Very cool.

No offense, but I did think it was kinda funny that it is your dream car, but you don't spell it right, it's Carrera GT, not Carrerra GT.

I do that a lot (double type letters), thanks for pointing out my deficiencies!

Quick video phone captures as proof:
