F1 24 year old German poster boy.

Sebastian Vettel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I would love to see Infiniti actually come out with this ride. Any chance of it actually happening?

Also curious what cars Infiniti has planned for the Vettel/Red Bull partnership. He may be contractually obligated to drive Infiniti products for the press, but does anyone really think he doesn't have a Porsche 911 or BMW M3 sitting in his garage right now? He is German after all. Just sayin'

however maybe now with his input they can make worthwhile updates

Here's my guess: revised spring rates and dampers, stiffer sway bars, 10-20mm lower ride height, new wheels, shed a few pounds, insignificant power increase if any, maybe a splash of carbon fiber to start the drools, requisite badges, and voila... a $15K markup special edition.

they shoudl make it twin turbo... that would really make it a special edition... nothing crazy... just 7lbs of boost would suffice.

Yeah, thats pretty accurate. Can't see them doing much more than that. Proly a $2-3K add for a $15K markup.

Twin turbo? Highly doubtful!

Slap a Mt. Fuli badge on the front and the back and we're good to go

This is the second time I see an IPL smoking the inside rear tire. Damn that VLSD is complete crap!

Add a Torsen LSD for the Vettel G please.
