An additional 200 Aperta or Spider variants, as well as a few dozen track-only cars, are also planned, according to sources.

The most beloved cars in my collection are the Ferrari 488 GTB, Rolls Royce Ghost extended wheelbase, and the Mercedes-Benz SLC 43 AMG. The Ferrari is an emotion. It inspires me as it gives me a sense of achievement. Even as it stands still, it gives you a sense of movement, growth, and beauty. Rolls-Royce makes the best cars in the world with thorough engineering and brilliant craftsmanship. So, these cars really inspire you → to be the best,  → reach the summit,  → to do better every day,  → and to excel in everything you do. Lastly, the SLC 43 AMG is my most beloved car. It has the perfect combination of performance, appeal, and style that no other car in its price range can match. Thus, it tells you even if you're not among the 0.01% of the world, you can still do great for yourself. Inspiration can find many ways to you. For me, each car is unique and tells a story. #carcrusader #carinspiration

I love Cars With Luke - I also love Porsche (in case you haven't noticed). In this latest video he takes the brand new 992.2 911 out and is less than impressed with some of the technological updates, which raises an interesting question: How do car manufacturers balance successfully introducing new technologies into their vehicles while preserving the mechanical/tactile beauty of "traditional" cars? I personally am not a fan of some of the latest additions creeping their way into cars today (haptics, the complete removal of physical buttons for vehicle controls, aircon vents without the ability to physically direct airflow) especially when they're sold as QOL enhancements. I'm curious, if you're spending $150,000+ on a sports car (or any new car) what are your expectations? [Hey Porsche Cars Australia - could I borrow a 992.2 to see what's going on here first hand?] 👀

The landscape of high-performance supercars is always evolving with exciting new models capturing the attention of enthusiasts and collectors. As of the latest updates, the #Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae has garnered significant interest. This model stands out as the final iteration of the Aventador series and is powered by Lamborghini's most potent V12 engine, making it a remarkable blend of technological advancement and raw power. Another notable mention is the Ferrari SF90 Stradale, which represents Ferrari's foray into hybrid technology. It combines a potent V8 engine with three electric motors, delivering unparalleled performance and a new standard in supercar efficiency. These vehicles not only push the boundaries of automotive engineering but also offer the exclusivity and prestige that clients like yourself appreciate. Whether you're drawn to the ultimate expression of Lamborghini's V12 lineage or the innovative hybrid technology of the Ferrari, both are excellent choices in the current high-performance supercar market.

Porsche AG Volkswagen Group 1985 Porsche B32. Probably the most valuable version of VW T3 van, the B32 was originally conceived as a support vehicle for the factory 959 rally cars during the Paris-Dakar campaign. Based on the Volkswagen T3 Caravelle, power came from a Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2L flat-six putting out 231hp which supposedly made the van capable of doing 0-62mph in 8 secs onto a top speed of 115mph. It is believed that only 15 examples were built including prototypes. And yes, they have Porsche VIN and hence identified as Porsches. This particular Perlmutter Metallic example was specially made for the then CEO of Porsche AG Peter W. Schutz (1981–1987) and was listed for sale by Porsche Center Gelderland for nearly $375k USD.

The aerodynamic bias was altered by the drastic revisions made to the technical regulations for 2022, where the underside of the car now generates 60% of the total downforce, preceding the top surfaces. Teams have struggled with porpoising and bouncing due to the extensive overhaul, and the competitive order has been known for varying from round to round, with Red Bull emerging as the clear winner. Throughout 2023, Aston Martin, McLaren, Ferrari, and Mercedes were occasionally the second-fastest teams, despite the vehicles’ difficulties maintaining consistency across various track types. The two-time Formula One champion Alonso believes this is a reflection of the modern machinery that is harder to set up, with vehicles like the Mercedes W14 standing out for having a small operational window. https://lnkd.in/dmhuy5D8
