Default LFA has a new stablemate

Added the 2016 911 Lava Orange GT3RS to the stable - needed something to keep the LFA company.

Great car, very different beast than the LFA. Still prefer the LFA though!

Awesome purchase. Congrats. Beautifiul picture. The LFA actuallly seems like a smaller car in that picture. A detailed review (comparison?) with the LFA would be nice.

Im sure you have other cars/dailys, but how in the world do you pick between these two to drive for the day? You garage is easily one of the greatest two-car garages I've ever seen.

Default Daily Driver....

my daily is a MB S63 AMG which has 577hp and 675 ft lbs of torque. It's a beast in its own right and very, very comfortable.

The RS and LFA fight for weekend rights !!

Did not think about that, but you are spot on. The GT3 RS has all the latest and greatest in engineering and technology. Because of the pace of technological improvements in the exotic car world, LFA being a 8+ year old design, in theory technically should be antiquated and dated, but the fact that contender still prefers the LFA, is a testament to how well engineered it was.

Still Jeremy Clarkson's favorite. I wonder if LFA is going steal Clarkson's heart forever.
