Very nice toys. A bimmer and it would be a perfect shot ;) j/k

So which of these three are your favorite?
 
That's like asking which of your children you love the most- They are all different in their own ways and I love them all- If I didn't I wouldn't keep them.

Here's our 2002 Allroad and 2004 ML500. We don't have the Allroad any more. The ML has 20" Brabus wheels, Weltmeister exhaust, lowered 2" in back, and K&N filter. I love passing cars on back roads with the ML500 towing a trailer with my 914-6 on it (don't worry all the roads are straight and flat here) on the way to Sebring.

I think we're honoured to have owner of these exotic cars here, great garage.

I really believe in what you said (study hard...) and I want to go to college, to graduate and become 'someone' but you know, sometimes even that isn't enough for the sucess and happiness.
 
ok fair enough but lets put it this way. Going for some laps around a track, which tool do you prefer, Gallardo or GT3? Which of them are easiest to control?

Great great cars!

The Gallardo looks awesome!

Maybe a Audi Le Mans there in the future too? ;)

Its funny you should say that- Just 2 days ago my father said he was thinking about trying to get a Le Mans.

For the track the GT3 is the best :t-drive:
There are very few that are faster. I asked David Murray and Hurley Haywood what they thought of the GT2 at the Porsche Driving Experience, and they both said go for the GT3. I know the GT2 has a faster lap at the 'ring than the GT3, but it seems like "those in the know" were always singing the praises of the GT3. I think its a better track car. I think that is why there has never been a GT2 in the GT class (GT-1 before) racing against the Corvette C5R or Ferrari 550/575 GTC while the GT3 has been so successful in its class.

The Gallardo is actually easier to control. The brakes bite really hard initially- they have the best brake feel of any car I have driven. With the AWD, it never feels like its getting away from you. The GT3 is not that easy to control- There is no PSM and the back end moves around quite a bit under power. It really reminds me of the 2001 Corvette Z06 I had. Its not like other modern Porsches.

No the Gallardo, Viper and GT3 are in my driveway. The Audi and MB are in the street in front of our house. Here's our house with the Viper in the driveway.

Awesome pics, and again great collection, GT3, im not surprised. And with your expertise i say your word is gold. :t-cheers:
 
great collection of cars. your house is great, too! BTW, 26 cylinders, only the first three cars i guess?
 
I know its off-topic but i almost had my home built in FL.

Its just that i had alot of family here and lots of work and progression in NY. Couldn't take advantage...

So I built my Toll Brothers home here in PA.

My furnishings have more taste, but this is the exact layout.

I was going to end up in this though, perhaps one day!

 
I would say the only car you need is an M5 then you'd be set. ;)

Hey Doc, how do you like your 993 turbo. We have one with 20k miles...
 
:icondrool AlxAmg, is the interior of your house even better than those in the pictures? You're truly blessed...
 
lol man is that your house from the inside?? if so its sick.. so clean..haha
you should se my place..i cant find the keys sometimes..haha
 
Well my house is decorated much more ultra modern, but the interior setup is identical. 2 story glass walls, columns in the bedroom etc... Just that my taste for interios furnishings is much more high end. This is a first for me, so i went all out...
