Steering wheels with wood are for dentists, or drivers who wear gloves. I dislike them. Same with carbon. At lest the carbon wheel above is wrapped with enough leather not to matter that much, but Porsche could do much better.

I hear ya on the wheel but the whole thing is an homage to the first 911 which had a wood wheel. For that reason it gets a pass.
Shit, I just want that color, those wheels, and those houndstooth seats.
And I only wear fine corinthian leather gloves and assless chaps for driving.I still call it The Jake.

I think the F1 comes standard with concubines. Probably lots of them. Originally Posted by DoWork

You're right, it's likely a dial. Probably the GRP (should be a fun acronym to play with) 1-12 top right. Originally Posted by DeepHelmet

As BeerDrinker pointed out, this is one of the few 10 second quarter mile cars sold straight bone stock - especially in that price range.
I just think its ugly. And useless.
Yeah, I'm a Euro-snob most days but I'd take a current Corvette in any flavor over this thing - even if it would blow the doors off it at a stop light.
Chevy's got it figured out: LeMans, IMSA races... and winning. Ford's got it too with the GT but FCA? Nope. Jeeps and uninspired, yet completely powerful, muscle-reduxes.I still call it The Jake.

Mopar has been a staple in drag racing since the beginning, it's their roots, similar to the vettes at LeMans. Originally Posted by BmillsSkier

This was both a good starting and stopping point. The new Demon is a 9 second production car. It's the quickest of five. Ever. For less than $100k. With a warranty. Mission accomplished. Originally Posted by BmillsSkier
