Exactly. Looking forward to reading about yours.
You will love it even when you curse it...

Four wheels, good power to weight ratios, canyon roads, and sexy bodies
So the answer for us yesterday was four wheels - Lamborghini, Porsche, and Alfa Romeo. Life in LaLaLand ...
Weather looks okay !
Power to weight ratio seems more than average I'll have the Lambo please or the non-turbo P-car if there is one Seeing the bikers in leather gear i guess it's not rally hot either Bim
Weather was a little too warm for my taste - had to run AC
The Huracan was loud and raucous but beautiful from every angle (like the 4C); the Cayman S was well driven and ...well, like a perfectly balanced P-car. 😁 most of the year the weather is not too hot for leathers.
Is it a well known road for having fun?
I remember several videos on youtube and the environment look alike. I guess no speed trap there 😎😎😎😎 4C for me
In malibu on Mulholland Highway on a section called The Snake
Quite a famous driving and riding road. Alternates between heavy law enforcement presence and light, but riders and drivers watch out for each other - helmet taps. Come and visit! I'LL bring the 4c...
It was, and the Lambo owner is a very nice guy.
If you come and visit I'm sure a ride can be arranged, maybe even more...
“A 77777” If it’s not a lucky plate number, I don’t understand what it is. Or maybe it’s a wink to the Aston Martin One-77 😁😉
For sure you had great time. Best wishes Alkiro
Looking like a great time!
As I believe you are well qualified to pass judgement, how does the 4C work in comparison? The car magazine reviews were not particularly complimentary about it, so interested to hear the opinion of an owner instead And if I already asked you that - forgi...
Alfa Romeo 4c vs Lotus
Hi, KMII, The Alfa is classic Italian - lots of personality (some would say temperamental, others a PITA) I personally love it - one must fight it, love it, always respect it, learn to trust it, and ultimately find peace with it because one will never tam...
Surely both helpful and interesting :)
Allow me one question as a follow up - you say you have no interest in Lexus and Audi. I assume we’re talking sedans, not sports cars? Either way, what would bind you more instead? Thanks a lot for the quick summary on the 4C!
Lexus and Audi - I have LOTS of respect for their tech and QC but
Even their performance models leave me cold...I remember something a hard core track rat friend told me, comparing his BMW superbike vs his Aprilia / Ducati: take the BMW to the track, race, go home and put it away. No urge to keep riding. The Aprilia and...
Fully understand your reasoning...
My question is which brands - and I know that‘s a problematic category today - on the whole represent the Ducati category for you, rather than the BMW motorcycle in the car sphere? I can guess that Lamborghini is one and Alfa might be another. Any others?...
NA; hydraulic power steering (if power assisted at all...)
Dear KMII, I'm an analogue man trapped in an increasingly digital world. (Of course that digitalization is a hoax but a hoax that more and more analogue humans believe...) Early digital music reproduction literally gave me a headache; today I tolerate it....
Close, very close, but ultimately cold:
Audi RS7 R8 AMG E63 (loved last gen NA) Current E63 S AMG GT-R
Came up hard and fast on it, owner was slightly faster than
Cruising. It looked nice from behind.
Thank you dr T
the Alfa, my target this year. Drove, loved and hated it, so it generates emotions for a moderate budget. Just what I need. Cheers, Dirk
Exactly. Looking forward to reading about yours.

A familiar sight. Amazing scenery, cool ride and great people.
I really look forward to my next visit.
