What a stunning machine!!! Absolutely love those. My neighbor has one and I detailed his not too long ago. He let me take it for a spin. WOW. Amazing vehicle to drive. I guess I was taking it easy, he told me to get out and he showed me how to REALLY drive. Unbelievable.

Here is his:

That's Mugello Blue. A really beautiful color in person!

The car was still not broken in all last summer, so I was taking it easy a bit. Can't wait for the weather to warm up here now that I am fully broken in so that I can really have some fun

I love that car! I just love the stance and everything. It looks so aggressive when looking at the wheels from the back.

You should hear the exhaust on this thing. There is a button that comes stock and you will open the exhaust bypass. So great...

yeah. there is an "S" button on the dash that increases throttle sensitivity and opens a pair of valves in the exhaust to make it louder.

I like the louder exhaust but hate the remapped throttle.

To beat this I just disconnected the lines to the valves in the exhaust. Now the valves are open all the time and I don't have to worry about the touchy gas peddle!

hey brianja, you have any large pictures of ur car? I would like to use them as my desktop background

What's the point of the valves anyways besides changing the sound?

Of course I have larger files. I would never delete my originals Which would you like?

Take a look through these two galleries and let me know what resolution and which files.

The point of the valves is only to increase the volume. To be honest, the "loud" mode isn't THAT loud, so I am perfectly content leaving it like that all the time.

I kind-of wish the car had "loud" and "LOUDER". haha.

Here's a pic (not mine) of the valve. You can see it is a small butterfly valve on the right of the two pipes. Its open in this picture.

There's one in each of the exhaust tips.
