Guys, I live in Sestri Levante, which is the opposite cape of the bay (called Golfo Del Tigullio) that begins in Portofino. The places shown in this video are where I go to school every day, but I didn't realise how beautiful they are until I saw this video, just because I'm so used to living in this area that I often forget how lucky I am. We've got beautiful places, beautiful buildings, beautiful gardens, a beautiful see and a beautiful countryside, reachable in just 20 minutes by car
I’m watching this after viewing today’s Pistonheads’ Daytona vid. I then remembered TG had a race in one many years ago and was happy to find it! Great vid ..just a shame it is 360p (filmed on video I guess) 😎
Loved this especially the "Karbon Karsie" on the boat. "St Trop" is great including all the silliness.There used to be a great restaurant just back from the harbour in Rue Allard but for the life of me cannot remember the name but I,m going back a few years! The Daytona is a cracking looker but very heavy driving as Hammond said!! Interesting that Enzo once said that the Jag E type was the most beautiful car he,d ever seen!
Or… the as we know, they had a really large film crew and some a set up at strategic locations along the route... i don’t know I could be overthinking it
I yearn for the feeling emotion when enjoying the pleasure of a soulful automobile. I want that indescribable feeling of empathy in my chest whenever I corner, whenever the engines takes a breath out the back, or when it screams in a redline soaked fury. Not warranty voiding launch control mechanism or ten way traction control. I want it precisely my way; its my personal test, its the soul from the driver linked with the soul of the auto. And It will be that way until I rest. Preach.
When he describes the Daytona retaining its essence despite its many faults, is the same way car nuts view old muscle cars - the car may turn bad, waste more gas than its rivals & not have a radio; but the car's soul never leaves. People overlook that notion all the time. New cars like the GTR & its entourage of UA-camrs can't process a notion like that. True fun doesn't exist for them. 0-60 times & blink of an eye shifts are what stirs them. The irony is they'd never track the car anyways.
You have to keep in mind that since it's a boat, It has more contact surface area. If it were a care, which has less surface area, It'll be something around the Chrysler ME 412
Normally I don`t really like old cars, since new ones are just safer, more practical and more ecologic. ( I think allso better looking usually. ) But that old ferrari is just a beaty ! I think I`m in love :D
Typical James, going the wrong way. On a boat. Before he's even left the harbour.
