00:05 (upbeat music)
00:07 (upbeat music)
00:10 (upbeat music)
00:14 (upbeat music)
00:20 (upbeat music)
00:26 (laughing)
00:32 (upbeat music)
00:36 - Whoa.
00:37 Whoa.
00:38 (laughing)
00:40 So good.
00:43 When you start going though,
00:49 you are getting the whoosh, whoosh, whoosh
00:51 of the turbos and God.
00:52 Super cool.
00:55 Oh my God, it's been five years
00:58 since I've driven a 458 Italia.
01:00 This is obviously the 488.
01:02 And okay, maybe there's not an opera singer
01:06 singing major chords behind my head
01:07 like there was with that flat plane V8,
01:10 but this twin turbo job's got way more push,
01:13 way more grunt, and just sublime.
01:18 Sublime car.
01:20 It's so good.
01:22 It's soft, yet steering is so direct.
01:26 Teeth aren't shaking out of my head.
01:28 Oh.
01:32 (engine revving)
01:33 Black leather seats, always a mistake,
01:35 especially in California.
01:36 I have a quote, of course, brown saddle leather
01:39 to match my preposterous, pretentious
01:41 Ferrari driving gloves.
01:42 Gotta have 'em.
01:43 Got the AC blowing cold.
01:51 And of course, PCH is an absolute parking lot.
01:54 Hey, man.
01:55 - Thank you so much.
01:56 - Hey, thanks for moving the car.
01:58 All right, you ready?
01:59 - Cool, yeah.
02:00 All right, let's go.
02:02 (laughing)
02:03 This is awesome.
02:05 Woo!
02:06 (laughing)
02:09 - All right, so 117 miles an hour, 108 miles an hour,
02:12 and then it's got very good brakes.
02:15 - Yeah, this week has been awesome.
02:16 I went on a Harley, and now I'm in a Ferrari.
02:18 - Nice!
02:19 - Yeah.
02:20 - Nice, which one's more fun?
02:21 - This one.
02:22 - All right.
02:23 (laughing)
02:25 (engine revving)
02:29 - Thank you again.
02:30 - Yeah, of course.
02:31 (engine revving)
02:34 Okay, complaints.
02:38 Boy, that even sounds good.
02:43 Brake pedal.
02:44 Yeah, maybe the, you should go drive a Porsche
02:46 and see how you get the brake pedal to operate
02:48 at the top 10% of the pedal travel,
02:50 not after about 25%.
02:53 But it stops just fine.
02:55 Throttle pedal is lovely.
02:59 I'm in race mode.
03:01 No, but seriously, this is really goofy.
03:05 (laughing)
03:07 Oh, I guess this is what happens
03:16 after you spend four days in a Nissan Murano.
03:19 (upbeat music)
