Here's a 1700 mile update on the Mac n' cheese.
So far what's done; Gintani turboback M-Engineering Tune Pure inlets 19x9.5 +35 265/30/19 r888r fronts 20x12.5 +32 325/30/20 r888r rears P104sc's in brushed dark tint coat The 911 was just not comparable. Again, after driving everything in the list again and then experiencing this 720s with the relatively speaking modest upgrades... This thing is a fucking animal. It shoots 10' fireballs out the back, it sounds like a race car when I'm on it and is quiet when I'm lumbering around in low RPM. It does not quite have the spooky turning capability a rear-wheel steer 911 does, but it rotates unlike most anything I've felt. Closest example is a race prepped exige maybe. It is always down to slide exactly as much or as little as you want. It does not have all the luxury amenities I want. I wish it had a button to turn on the 360 degree cameras. Sometimes the wing complains and doesn't deploy until I go above 4mph. Forthcoming; Carbon. All of it.

I've been closely watching the 720s market for a bit and it seems the 750s didn't really make an impact. I would say go for an LT but it's just hard to justify - spiders are still going for 100-150k over sticker and being sold at that price regardless of mileage. I would definitely buy used if the right one came up. Some of the must have features; Upgraded sound system - the 4 speaker system is worthless Vehicle lift - Not all of them have it Surround cameras - This thing is a pain in the ass to back in to spaces WITH the cameras, god I can't imagine without them.

I occasionally have similar issues with the active rear wing but somehow sorts itself out. The 720s is a seriously fast car, and I imagine with a tune it must be downright scary. |

I just press the button and the wing is fine. Only other weird gremlin I've had is sometimes the window goes down then back up, just like my supposedly "top quality" porsche with the "amazing build quality". Oh and no squeaks and rattles. I guess I got a good british car somehow.
