Here is the second half of that two-way indepth with the 190 EVO.

Sadly I can't really tell you a lot about the car. It was raining a lot and the car was still in its breaking in period. I didn't see more than 4000 rpm, which are pretty much enough to rip your spine aparta btw :D

It feels a damn quick car, and I am sure it can scare the shit out of its passengers, but it wasn't the best day to try it out.

So, pics only!

Haha, there is something with the design of the front bumper (just infront of the wheels) that makes the reflections always appear like its damaged in that area. Noticed it in my pics of the 997TT in Alice Springs last year and now on some of yours, weird!

Subtle understated colour for it, nice job with the pics - and yes its bloody quick!!

Too bad for the weather :bah:, not good to shoot silver car
(which is not a good color for this car IMO)

cool location near the lake :good:, the raindrop look great on the pics, especially on the last few

Last pic is the best one
I agree. The background just suits the understated colour of this 997TT

Very nice pictures on a sad day. The rain drops give the car a nice effect. Best picture in my opinion is #5.
