Default This car scared the hell out of me yesterday!

Yesterday was the first day since I've gotten the car that it's been nice enough here for me to take drive to the office with the windows down. I'm in dynamic and sport mode, having a blast when it's time for me to get on the highway. As I'm merging onto the highway I punch it fairly hard...

and then all of a sudden there is this ROAR behind me. It sounds like there's some kind of incredibly angry and powerful car in my blind spot! I start checking my mirrors frantically and turning my head everywhere trying to see what kind of insane supercar is about to split me in half...

and then I realize.. it's my car making the sound. Laughing like a maniac ensues.

It happens... all. the. time...

Smile. Giggle. Laugh!

This car is simply a joy. I call it the car of the people. Everyone just smiles when on the outside. But, when they get in for a ride - they go from smiles, to giggles, to laughter.

Never seen anything like it. I never get in that thing without feeling good and virtually every time, I wind up just shaking my head and laughing...

A fellow maniac...

The Capristo on the F Type is about the nastiest exhaust I have ever heard on a car ... my wife loves it ...
