UK magazine "Car Magazine"This is the April 2018 issue of. * For copyright protection, the text in the magazine is blurred.
This time I'm curious from the cover page. Dodon and Ferrari are 488 Pista. And the BMW M8 that is also worrisome in the back!
I was excited to turn the page, but this time Car Mazagine was really interesting. What's interesting is that the reporter's glue is light ...
For example, for information about this Audi R8 RWS coupe (V10 533 horsepower ←, 7-speed auto, rear-wheel drive on RWS street, 0-100 km in 3.7 seconds, vehicle weight 1,665 km ...) … Of course, basic information and impressions about the vehicle are also posted, but above all, it seems to be important…
Here! The part marked with a circle in the photo below is that this Audi R8 is a limited edition car with only "999" in the world, and it says "It is one of 999" on the dashboard. The logo "1 of 999" that means? That is to enter.
That's nice, but what's written here is ... "Don't be fooled because every 999 cars say" 1 of 999 "! One word (laughs). In other words, normally, "1 of 999" or "356 of 999" is often displayed, such as "Which car is the number of 999 cars made?" ..
So, if it is "1 of 999", it will be the first one out of the limited 999 units, and it will have a tremendous premiere feeling! … But don't be fooled by this, and all 999 are engraved with “1 of 999” because they are “one of 999” anyway. Yeah, this kind of information is important (laughs).
By the way, Ferrari, which can be said to be the main article of this time, is 488 Pista. It's still cool!
This is fascinating just by looking at the pictures.
The interior was also posted like this. This foil looks like a spider.
… And then Ferrari also mentioned Portofino, but this is also more interesting to the reporter. There is only Portofino announced as a successor model of Ferrari California / California T, and the title is "How Far's Portofino from California?". So how different is California from Portofino? That can be considered as the content of the article.
However, as you know California, the United States is one of the representative states of the West Coast, and Portofino is also the place name of a fishing village near Genoa in Italy, so the start of the article really took the title literally. How far is Portofino from California? "
The answer is "about 6,000 miles" (about 9,660 kilometers). pretty…. It's quite far, for example, California is about 8,600 km from Japan and Italy is about 9,700 km from Japan. … So what is it (laughs).
There was only a little mention of the Porsche 911 992. As the spy shot was taken somewhere before, I was delighted that there was a manual even when it became 992. Well, the manual ~. What should I do, let's take the plunge and make it a manual here ...In order to get the manual Porsche, the automatic limitation of the Japanese driver's license was releasedSo ... if I don't make it a manual here, I might not do it forever ...? ??
Finally, the BMW that is actually interested and waiting for information is the M8. Because my family has three children, a "five-seater" car is indispensable as a family car, and the BMW 650i Grand Coupe is currently owned as that family car. If the day comes to replace this 650 ... Isn't this M8 in sight? When.
How is it? It looks pretty big ... (I can't drive at 650 anyway, but I can't drive just because the size of the M8 is a little different (laughs)).
I'm looking forward to this as well!
Even so, he has an aggressive face again and is cool! However, although there was a video, I wonder why I chose green (dark green) ... Somehow it doesn't seem to be the image of M8. Isn't that the case?
