GT35 versus Rustler37

Over the years, I've had 3, and they've been the only cars which felt really special, which brought a grin so readily, which made the hairs on my neck stand up. Just getting one out of the garage had a sense of occasion. The sound, the smell, the quirky details. We took one of them back to the factory one hot summer, fabulous drives through spectacular scenery, and the amazingly raw sound of going through the tunnels! I reckon there's a bit of soul still lurking in even the latest ones.

Get on the spanners in the pits at a Ferrari challenge race or anything like that and you will see they are just machines, bits of metal.
If you have time to gaze at the scenery you can't have been pedalling particularly quickly. To drive any of these weapons properly it is necessary to be on a race track and to be quite prepared to get intimate with the barriers if genuinely on the limit.
They are consumer durables, end of. The continentals treat boats, cars etc as just that. They don't get much right but they are spot on with this one.

They're a bit more than "bits of metal". They're designed and built with passion. And you're right, I didn't go particularly fast, the most I saw was 170 on a French autoroute. As for race tracks, I did a couple of track sessions once, but stopped before I bent it.
