    Ricky, I know I asked you to dyno it after you put the exhaust on but listening to it max rev scared the **** out of me. All I could think of was "how much is a full engine rebuild going to be"! Have a good weekend, Rob.

      @@N1NJAKIDD I love Ricky's videos as much as anyone and if his customers, in this case me, don't let him use their cars for content the videos are going to stop, so absolutely no problem on my part. Glad you love the car, I've dreamt of owning one since Jezza reviewed it on TopGear in 2010 and it just took me 13 years to save up enough to buy one!

      Those car choices are all mega and you’d be happy with any of them but the Audi R8 with cash is mega tempting. A true everyday supercar that sounds awesome. Naturally aspirated V10, come on.

      R8 is great, but its still an Audi. You have to truly go exotic with the notable brands and yes the posable look does come into play. It's just a part of the DNA of supercars.

    458 ‘Tis a beautiful thing to look at …. Glorious to listen to, and frightening to watch one get max’d out even when it’s not your pound notes at risk. Tbh Ricky and team is probably the only person I’d let loose with it …if I had the amazing fortune to own one, wealth to upkeep one and guts to ever leave it in the hands of someone else to take it to the very limits of its capability. Blindingly good content this one love it. If I had the money the choice of all those others -of course it has to be the Ferrari. The last of em in the pile would be the R8. Sorry but really would.

    The last thing you want to own in a hot climate is a car without a roof, the car simply becomes too hot to sit in and sitting in the sun becomes very old really quickly. Very few convertibles are sold in Oz for this reason.

    • @robertwiddrington

    Answer to you mate. For 120 bags, I'm afraid I'd have an F430 in Grigio Silverstone with big rims, spaced and lowered (not many other ferarris tickle my pickle lads).
    Then with the change I'd have a well sorted and supercharged Audi B7 RS4 Avant in Imola Yellow, big boolaz, spaced and lowered with all the bells and whistles for a safe 900/1000bhp. Like that C6 RS6 you done for that fella, the black one on 138k miles.
    Then with the £1.99 change I'd have an Oreo MacFlurry. Thanks. Haha😂

    Original red, black sports seats with black interior acro exhaust, tune it to get it up to the 560bhp it should be, lower the front by20mm, then the most important thing is to tune the gearbox to iron out the 0-10% jerky throttle as your rolling or cruising its horrible. Nick casberger who was tuning my ktm did it in 15 minutes and its transformed the car.
    Ferrari couldn’t do anything with it apart from a clutch learn which done nothing. Absolutely love it. 🔥

    I owned a triple yellow 458 coupe for five years, huge fun to drive with short gearing and NA engine, chassis brilliant like an M3 for skidding so a lot of fun but at 26,000 my gearbox sprung a leak and needed new casing which was £7500 bill at Ferrari.
    Own an R8 V8 manual but have driven the V10 Plus and LP610 and the 458 is a far more fun car to drive, 458 proper drivers car fun and engaging whereas I find the R8 and Lambo a bit easy and end up doing daft speeds.
    Now own a 600 LT Spider and yeah 458 sounds better but the 600 is far more capable on track and roof down the whip cracks sound decent but the 600 has epic steering best of them all and is too fast but enjoying it a lot and a Spider is a must on a 600 for the top exit exhaust.

    458 is the solid bet, scratch that ferrari itch, not really loose any money owning it for a couple of years.
    Lambo, the trouble with the lambo is the R8 and money to spend on mods .
    Porsche turbo S , wicked fast,but a touch ' soulless ', like a grown up golf R does everything well except get your inners fizzing when walking up to it.
    600lt, hell of a drivers car, but the drive to the track and back (A roads aside) isnt pleasant or make you feel special, just worried about every little noise or crack you hear (or see on the windscreen).
