I think you should get the Mini, if you can in the same yellow. Also, I think I better see if the Porsche dealer will gladly change the combo on my Carrera order from Guards Red to Speed Yellow... my my my that yellow looks nice with the black wheels buy the toys and never sell them

That will look very cool in your garage though the mini will look like a little toy next to the Diablo... saw a black Murcielago in Dubai with a 666 plate and that was NICE .
