4 months old... with 8 k miles ... spot less?
That's 66 miles a day on that. Unless it was driven across country. We need pics... then again pics only do so much.

V-12 Twin turbo's.
Wonder why they didn't stick with a blower like the SL-55?
I was driving around Porsche's last month and like the GT-3 as it has around 400 HP with a competition exhaust and no turbos. Turbos fry the oil and you needs tons more cooling.
I am not COMPLAINING just curious why anyone these days would want a Turbo?? Blowers come on faster usually and much less heat concerns and need to redesign the car to put air-dams in.
Am I off base on this viewpoint?
