Thanks, John. Alleviates some of my guilt.

BTW, I like the 944 Turbo in your stable. Had a '88 944 Turbo S and it was a far far better car than my '87 911... (hope no Porsche cops around here). ...

Sorry about the double pic. Donno why it happened.

!!! I was going to suggest the same thing!! ... but don't have my Seven yet... :-((
Ran it in my '87 911 and in my Holden (Chevy SS), and it is a blast -- so long as you get on it early in the...

:cheers:

Re Seven: I do not intend to order the aero screen. My windshield at least initially will always stay on. The base S-Pack comes with removable top and doors.
Beautiful car!!! Custom painted...

Thanks for the tip re half hood! Being in SC we were not even thinking of using a top except against for some shade on hot summer days. Will look closer into it once there is a Seven...
Re Volvo,...

Thanks! Yes, as Mark IV pointed out, it does come with removable soft top and doors (and heater).

So what about yours??

Lotusfan, thank you and indeed...

Not to derail the thread too deep with Volvo wagons, but indeed there is nothing like them - even more so if you want a manual (ours is, and it's not an R).
Just...

P.S., many thanks to all of you with the encouraging notes! We are excited!!! My wife is actually (just about) as excited as I am.
We actually climbed out via the Immelmann maneuver (I had to due...

Hello All,
Enclosed is where I currently sit with the spec, with great inputs here and from Rocky Mountain Caterham (Josh and Ross).
I will be placing the order with RMC. Waiting for the current...

Warm thanks to BlueMax and coffee break for letting my wife and me try their cars for size.
Last Sunday we tried BlueMax's SV and determined that we have a bit of room to spare.
Today we confirmed...

Good to know! This will be earmarked as a potential line item for the Phase II budget...(Phase I is to get the dang car). For now I'm cool with the base 14" ones, and pretty much committed to the...

P.S., Awesome video!! Makes my mouth water...

@Croc and @11Budite, thanks a bunch for the additional insight.

@Croc, I am well familiar with driving low torque high revving cars and with trail throttle/braking to help turn-in (I have a street...

@Vovchandr and @jimmylukeli, thanks a lot for the quick and great replies and the very helpful links.

To your questions, @Vovchandr, I do not initially plan to do engine tweaking in search of more...

Hi All, as some of you know from another thread, I am going through the spiritual transformation towards ordering my Seven.
I don't expect to do a lot of track events (although I have a lot of...

Sure!!

How many and what sizes we need?...

Hi BlueMax, my turn to apologize for the delayed response; we spent all yesterday driving back from Western Michigan and today getting caught up and settled back into daily routine.
I would love to...

Vovchandr, thanks for the great insights. I'm looking forward to revisiting the towing topic once I have the something to tow. In the meantime will hang tight to see if can do the physical "fitting".

sorry for the detour...

Kudos to your project! You're diving quite deep. How difficult is the conversion to manual trans?
I picked the base V70 (albeit 5spd) to minimize hassles and expenses as it is the "schlepping" car....

Thanks!! Great to encounter Volvo heads even here. So you are essentially creating an R with a bit more ground clearance and a few more N-m?...
The V70 is our (and our dogs') serene and beloved...

Is there anyone with a standard size Se7en within ~250 mile radius from Greenville SC who is willing to allow my wife and me to just try it for size (sitting still) in order to help us decide whether...

Neglected to applaud the great piece about buying and driving "cold turkey" the V8 Miata from FL to PA... great read!!

Jim, warm thanks to you as well. This also makes for two recommendations for Rocky Mountain Caterham. Will call them yet today or Monday.
Happy New Yearl!
