I did not find that to be true. At Daytona, I have tried switching to 6th. Get it to speed and 6th will hold it and you are not revving the piss out of your engine.
That's cool, I did not realize it could pull with 0.63:1 top gear.
In no way I'm saying it a pulling gear. Once you get it there, it does a good job of keeping it there.
That is true. I spoke with my client in Germany. He said that GT350 is exotic car and need to adopt few modifications/specs in order to meet European regulations. He mentioned that GT350 cost around $100K in EU. The price difference is due to tax charges mostly.
There is a standard EU import tax of 10K, which is probably included in the price shown since all of the cars are already here. Then there is a registration tax that varies per country. Germany's is linear and rather forgiving. Northern states (Belgium, Netherlands, DNK, Norway, etc) are outrageously high--a larger initial registration tax plus several thousand Euro per year. Switzerland, being outside of the EU, has a different scheme than the others.
True statement. It costs a good chunk of change to get a license in Germany.
Guaranteed, if you are in the Porsche lane over by Frankfurt am Main on A5 going north, a Porsche will be flashing you to move, out of the way !!!
A while back I was on a strip of A61 around Mannheim and Hockenheim when I came upon a C63. After he realized he couldn't outpace the Shelby he moved aside and fell in behind me. Literally seconds later, an Aventador closed on us from behind. As we moved aside, rather than leaving us both in his vapor trail, he was gracious enough to ease in front of me to make a 3 car Autobahn parade.
