    WANTED: Engine Noise Simulator

    Unlike most of you, I totally agree with the OP. I miss the sound of an ICE, especially ones with high horsepower, torque and exhaust note. I would like to have a choice of different engine sounds from classic Ferrari V-12 to Cobra 427 as well as normally aspirated Formula ! V-12 engine. You...

    Alcantara Dash Fade

    I'm sorry if this has been discussed before but does the Alcantara dash top fade over time? This pertains to those of you with older or high mileage MS. Is it wise to use a dash cover when leaving it out in the sunshine? Thanks for your thoughts.

    I got a ticket for no front license plate

    This is off the topic but from watching COPS for many years and talking with my friends in law enforcement, I can conclude that over 90% of violent arrests by police is due to the suspect not listening to the commands given by the officer. This is true for whites, blacks, brown yellow and red...

    I got a ticket for no front license plate

    Embarrassing? It was more like Oh Sh*t, I hope it doesn't fall off when he's inspecting it. lol

    I got a ticket for no front license plate

    UPDATE: I decided to install the front plate using double sided tape which I applied to the back of the license plate frame that came with the car. I used shallow screws and nuts to secure the plate to the frame so nothing would rub or scratch the front grille. Yesterday was a hot day but I...

    Pirelli P Zero

    Thanks guys for your valuable comments. The consensus seems the P Zeros are definitely noisier than the Michelins or Contis. I have only driven mine on Michelins 8/10 into demanding corners and it was inconclusive as to how well it handles. I was still unfamiliar with the car so I didn't push it...

    Pirelli P Zero

    Thanks SMSPRAGUE. I'm fairly certain the P Zeros have a better grip when driven aggressively!

    Pirelli P Zero

    My other car has them and they exhibit phenomenal gripping power. I love them. No wonder most supercars offer them as OEM. I would like to know if anyone has them installed on their MS and how it is compared with the Michelin Pilots. How is the handling and how long do they last? I plan to...

    I got a ticket for no front license plate

    I believe over here, the majority of non-compliance for front license plates are with higher end cars and exotics. Those that can't afford the insurance or fees install front plates in fear of having any reason to be pulled over. BTW, what was more shocking to you: Brexit or England losing to...

    I got a ticket for no front license plate

    Thanks everyone for your helpful response, suggestions and links to creative solutions. Yes, in Calif its the law to affix the front license plate. The ticket is $25 but will be reduced to $10 if inspected by an officer before two weeks. The ticket was issued while parked at a parking meter...
